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...

Map Of Ireland

A thoroughly enjoyable read. Although at times using the backdrop of the Boston busing crisis of the early 1970s felt a little forced, overall it was a very entertaining book. The main character was completely engaging. I only wish the book had been longer.

Teahouse Fire
by
Ellis Avery
CB
, June 14, 2007
The Teahouse Fire is a wide-ranging, smart and sexy tale that weaves a compelling personal journey through political changes and upheaval in late 19th century Japan. Avery's novel is a coming of age story, a fascinating lesson in the art of tea ceremony, and the story of how one family is changed by the arrival in Japan of the western world.

Ex Machina Volume 01 The First Hundred Days
by
Brian K Vaughan

What if post 9/11 NYC elected an superhero (who had prevented one of the towers from being hit) to be mayor? and what if he believed in civics and cared equally about law and order and civil liberties? As usual, Brian K. Vaughan blew my mind with this comic book series. Even if you don't think you're interested in comic books, check out the beginning of the series in this book and you won't be disappointed.

Marvel Runaways 01 Pride & Joy

Runaways, Brian K Vaughan

Everything I've read by Brian K. Vaughan has been brilliant and this is no exception. His characters are smart, likeable, and his storylines are consistently relevant and show compassion for humanity. This series can be enjoyed by readers of all ages, but I particularly recommend it if you want your middle schooler to be smart and question society.
