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...

Queens Thief 01 Thief
by

This book is suspenseful and well written. This book is witty and creative. Megan Walen Turner creates a world with a its own set of rules, governments, and gods and goddesses. The Thief is about, well, a thief and his journey to freedom. I highly recommend this book.

In my opinion, this is the best of the "Queen's thief series". All of the character's you love and more. Is Eugenides the thief of Eddis or the King or Attolia?

Conspiracy of Kings
by
Megan Whalen Turner
Agent Anonymous
, September 06, 2012
Although, by right and blood, Sophos is the rightful heir to the throne of Sounis, he is kidnapped during a rebellion for the sole purpose of putting him on the throne to be puppet king. The combined sophistry of the rebel barons are no match to Sophos’s sharp mind and virtuous character. "The Conspiracy of Kings" is a fast pace story with clever twists and dialogues. The characters that touched our hearts in Megan Whalen Turner’s “Queen’s Thief” series are back! Sophos the scrawny apprentice in "The Thief" returns like you’ve never seen before as he fights for freedom, Sounis, and love.

To Kill a Mockingbird
by
Lee, Harper
Agent Anonymous
, May 12, 2012
“To Kill A Mockingbird” by Harper Lee is a southern drama about a child’s innocence and the truth about human nature. The story covers two years in the life of Scout, the protagonist, and her brother Jem. It takes place in a sleepy southern town in 1933. The story is told from Scout’s point of view, she is looking back at the summer when she turned six years old. Her father, Atticus Finch, who is a defense lawyer, is representing a black man accused of rape. As summer ends Scout starts school for the very first time. She is teased and bullied because her father is defending a black man. For the first time in her life Scout is exposed to the evil and unfairness of the world. Will Scout and Jem ever recover from the trauma of their childhood? The answer might be found in the song of a mockingbird. This is a very wonderful book that is hard to put down. If you like William Armstrong's “Sounder” you will like “To Kill A Mockingbird.”

This is a wonderful book for people starting to learn ASL. It is super easy to understand. It includes memory aids and specific directions on how to do a sign under the illustration of that sign.
