(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...

Small Steps

Small Steps, is, among other things, a modern-day classic. I first read it when I was just ten years old, and I am now fifteen. I read it every year on my birthday, a treat to myself. It is easy to understand, but the plot is still gripping enough to keep me reading. Theodore or 'Armpit' is a loveable narrator and by the end of the novel, I always want to sit with him and eat waffles. Definitely on my favorites list.

The Book Thief
by
Markus Zusak
Aurelle
, January 20, 2012
The Book Thief. The Book Thief. Just whispering the title gives me chills. This story changed my life. For the one week I was engrossed in this tale of life, love and loss, I was with Liesel Meminger every step of the way. I was with her when she moved in with the Humbermann's on Himmel Street and I was with her when she played ball in the streets of Nazi Germany. I watched her steal, I watched her read, and I watched her learn. Liesel Meminger and Max Vandenburg have changed my life. This tale twisted a knot in my stomach that only the ending could untie. By far the most beautifully written book I have ever had the pleasure of reading. And to Markus Zusak- as Shakespeare would say, 'A thousand thanks.'
