(0 comment)
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...

Redeeming Waters

This book blew me away. I felt as I was reading that I was with them as King Daavid-the young singer and Brianna came together and I lost my breath at moments when Griggs words touched the deepest part of my heart. She said very wise comments in this book through Brianna and KInd Daavids characters. I loved how the characters were modern-day characters of King David and Bathsheba from the Bible. I felt as if I became closer to the Lord as I read Bible verses and uplifting dialogue through the entire book. I also learned what a "mikveh" was and that truly inspired me to go and do a mikveh ritual, although I am not from the Jewish decent or culture. I can't express in words only how touching this book was, and with Griggs words the characters and events became alive to me.

Very Classy

This book truly taught be how to be a classy young woman. The modern world today has very few intelligant, wise and excellent role models, instead we have skimpy-clothed bathing suit models, fake celebrities, and anorexic, unhappy young models as our role models. Blasberg really went into depth and explained to the young generations of girls of how to be classy, sophisticated and instead of ruining our society, he taught us girls how to be confident, strong young woman to make the world a better place, one classy young woman at a time.
