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...

Seraphina 02 Shadow Scale
by

Seraphina stands alone, it isn't one of those annoying books that finishes and leaves you hanging until the next one, but Shadow Scale follows up on something mentioned at the end of Seraphina, without feeling at all manufactured or like the act of an author desperate for ideas. Getting to see other kingdoms and how they differ from Goredd is interesting for the reader as well as for Seraphina, who finds herself comparing her home and seeing ways in which it is better, and worse, than its neighbors. There are a few heartrending moments (as well as one "did she just imply what I think she did?" moment that I was not at all expecting [that should be considered praise]), and there are new developments in ideas that I had accepted in Seraphina without questioning, only to look back upon and wonder about. It was a complex and thrilling read, which left me rather startled to find myself back in the real world when I finished reading. I'm a big re-reader, and I'm looking forward to reading it again, to pick up details I may have missed as I was rushing to Find Out What Happened.

This book was so good I was afraid to finish it, in case the ending disappointed. It didn't! I highly recommend it, and can't wait for the author to write more.
