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...

Childrens Crusade

Four siblings and their relationships with each other, their parents and the house in which they grew up. Shifting perspectives of narrator and particularly of time create a well thought out mosaic of how we feel the depth of time past contained within each moment of the present. Even with its very satisfying ending, Iit left me feeling that the lives of the characters continued beyond the covers of the book. Thank you, Ann Packer!

Knocking on Heavens Door The Path to a Better Way of Death
by
Katy Butler
Amy S
, March 30, 2014
The American health care system takes a fix-it approach to all problems yet sometimes, Katy Butler tells us, fixing is not the best approach. In a personally courageous memoir and exploration of end of life medical care, Butler examines the lack of options provided to many patients and the potential for a better way of death. Most of us, either for ourselves or on behalf of a loved one, will be facing these choices. Butler's information and account of her family's experience will leave us better prepared to make them.
