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...

Andy has a problem. Or should I say, more than one. He was caught at a rest stop performing oral sex on another man. The judge handed down a sentence of counseling and of course, no more indiscretions. Andy, a traveling salesman, goes to a young priest for counseling sessions and is very incensed at the priest's handling of his problem. To add fuel to the fire, Andy is just getting through a divorce from the one woman he loved more than anything. The worst part? He is now living with his ailing mother. All this adds up to a very deep look at the embarrassments Andy has had to live with, all the while still seeking out men for quickies and a possible relationship. This book is very well written and easy to read - I read it in one night because I was so fascinated with Andy's story and how he handled what life threw him. Recommend highly to readers of gay literature. You won't be disappointed!
