Powell's is one of the coolest bookstores in the world. A full city block of reading wonder located in Portland, OR, it also happens to be across the street from Ozone, a very cool record store. I could easily live in there if I had a sleeping bag and a pillow. :) Never go there if you are broke or don't want to spend any money. You will spend money, even if its just for a used copy of a book you read in high school. I owe my overinflated book collection to Powell's.
