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...

The Lost Dreamer

I can't speak highly enough about THE LOST DREAMER, by Lizz Huerta! This was one beautifully written novel with unforgettable characters and such an interesting premise! As someone who enjoys reading fantasy, I appreciated the world building that happened throughout the book and how the two POVs of the book together gave us a deeper understanding of the world. I myself am obsessed with the idea of dreams and I loved the nuanced role that dreaming played in the plot of the novel. I knew when I started reading that the two POVs would intertwine at some point, but I was not prepared for how that happened in the end of the book. This was one of those books that hooked me and wouldn't let me go! As I neared the end of the book, I simultaneously wanted to hurry up and finish it to see what would happen and slow down as much as possible so that it wouldn't end. As a high school teacher and librarian, I can't wait to recommend this book to all our fantasy-loving students!

All My Rage

ALL MY RAGE is one of those books you finish reading and can't stop thinking about! I am a huge fan of Sabaa Tahir's writing and was super excited to read this book and see how she would write a book that wasn't a fantasy. And let me just say, this book is absolutely incredible! From the start of the novel, I was pulled right into these characters’ lives and enjoyed how each of the three perspectives gave us a part of the overall story. It came as no surprise then, how emotional this book made me! Tahir does such an amazing job of getting us to connect to each character in the book and making us feel what they are feeling. I appreciated how nuanced the characters and their relationships with one another were. I appreciated how beautiful the writing was, and how Tahir didn't shy away from making us as readers feel those big emotions. As a high school teacher and librarian, I am ecstatic that this book will be added to our school collection so that our students can have the opportunity to read this novel. I am certain they will love it as much as I have!
