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...

Christopher Moore is one of the handful of authors whose books I buy the instant they're available. The vast majority of his books are outstanding; even the ones that fall short of that high standard are entertaining; there just never seems to be a 3-star or lower effort. Also being a Shakespeare nut (pun intended), I'm fairly certain I over-anticipated this book. Damning by faint praise, there's nothing in these pages not to like, it's just that this novel doesn't reach the heights of which he's capable. And I use the f-bomb like a comma (with apologies to Doonesbury, from which that statement is derived) but even so, I feel like the language could have been dialed back a bit, just like sometimes you get better results with a quiet voice rather than shouting. All that whining aside, it's wonderful to have Pocket of Dog Snogging and his compatriots back in action, and to see Moore's continue to take on, and riff on, Shakespearean classics. Yup, I'll be there on day one for the next Moore release.
