About Powell's City of Books
A giant independent bookstore occupying a full city block, with new and used books side by side across colour-coded rooms, plus a rare-book room and a café. Grab a store map at the entrance. It's easy to lose hours browsing alone, and the staff recommendation cards are excellent.
