Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Three Cups of Tea One Mans Mission to Promote Peace One School at a Time
by
Mortenson, Greg and Relin, David Oliver

This incredible story will have you laughing with wonder, smiling with heart-wrenching joy, and crying with terrible sadness within 5 minutes. This book is truly one that pulls on your heartstrings. It is impossible not to fall deep into Greg Mortenson's story of success and hardships to get there. It is a truly incredible story of one man's promise that changed many people's worlds forever. It is a story of success, of never giving up no matter what, and of love. Get ready to shed a few tears along the way, because this novel had me bawling like a baby. It is an incredible story, especially because it is actually one man's story of success, and if you have not read it, I very strongly suggest picking it up and reading it. It is worth it, and I can guarantee that you will learn a very valuable lesson or two. Lessons about friendship, loyalty, honesty, and perseverance are just a few that I know I sure learned a lot about in this touching story. So make sure you have a box of tissues near by and enjoy this truly amazing story of one man's journey to keep a simple promise made to the people who saved his life in the mountains.

Shining
by
Stephen King
Maya Grosch
, August 04, 2012
The Shining is a must-read to all! If you have seen the movie, I must recommend you read the book! If you have not seen the movie, you most certainly should both read the book and watch the movie; both are incredible! In this novel, Stephen King takes horror to the next level, and has the hair on the back of your neck standing up from the very first page. It is next to impossible to put this book down, so you better be ready for an all-nighter! This is just another fabulous thrill ride from the most famous horror writer of all time, and if you have not read this novel it is time to indulge your senses in this epic story!
