if you ever want to go see a gorgeous book shop (not quite as big but equally as beautiful) you should check out barter books in alnwick if you've never been. it's a used book shop that's a lot smaller than this one but so cosy and so beautiful. i spent hours in there when i went, and it has a small cafe too. i think it used to be a railway station or something.

One interesting element is there used book buy counter. They divide into a reject and accept pile. You store the rejects away ASAP so that, when they are done, you clear out quickly to make room for the next seller.

Oh the bookshop on the corner is such a fun read. Was excited to see it

It's unlikely that this midwest girl will ever make it to the west coast but this bookstore is what dreams are made of 😍

My lovely English teacher used to take my class on field trips to Portland, which is 2 hours away from where I live. We used to see plays at the Artists Repertory and Portland Center Stage, and when we saw a play at AR, we would wander around the Pearl District and everyone always defaulted to Powell's. It was always so beautiful. Watching this brings back so many memories, and I wish to go there again once it is safer. I love it so much, I always found so many amazing things, I always had fun with friends, and this video really reminded me to cherish the memories I have.

This came up in my recommended and I clicked on it because of how much I miss my monthly Powells trips. I live in Portland and I have been going to Powells since I was a toddler, truly a magical place!

I'm a long haul trucker, and every time I end up in Portland, I make sure to stop here. I usually take a day off, have breakfast at Fuller's, then spend up to 6 hours just chilling here. It's a wonderful place!

I'm not gonna lie - I come back to this every other month because it's the ultimate comfort watch

Not sure if you'll read this, Morgan, but I wanted to tell you that your videos make me feel so quiet. Something about your voice, your smile, and the general wholesomeness of your content makes me feel energized and calm all at the same time. So, thank you!

I’ve just discovered your channel. Love your videos, your so sweet. Your enthusiasm and excitement about walking around a book shop makes me want to stop binge watching your videos and go and dig out a book!! I moved from England to Canada 10 years ago, bought allot of books with me, many of which I’ve never read, then had a child and have barely picked up a book since. I’m going to go and find one! Maybe I will start with Harry Potter again!!

Hello! Love this bookstore vlog absolutely! I’m a Chinese, so I notice that the third HP version you picked up is actually a Chinese translation one, we read just like how English books are read, starting from the first page, left to right instead from the last page, haha, still very cute you thought how we read from the back ;)

Just lol'd at !5:55 because I could see Landon in the glass of the door getting that shot with the camera of you exiting! What a great guy! I'm a new subscriber going through all your videos! Just stumbled upon your channel one day and I am SO glad that I did! Love it so much!

I recently discovered your channel thanks to quarantine and have been bingeing on your older videos to catch up. You have been a beacon of light. Thank you for your content🙏 My gosh this place is what I imagine heaven to be like 😍

This is my first video of yours, good to have a Portlander in Booktube!! Powell’s is THE BEST ❤️

I loved Powells books when I went. In my 6 day stay in Portland I went 9 times. I didn't even want to go the first time because I thought it was pointless but I was urged to go. I loved it so much, I bought 20 books. And thanks to them they turned me from a 6 book a year reader to 52 book a year reader (One a week).

Yes the that harry potter one was in german😍 childhood memories i remember my brother went out on the night one of these books came out at midnight to buy it here in germany and they were gone like 1 or 2h even though the book store is like 10 mins away but like EVERYONE wanted to have it...its such a beautiful childhood memory for me whem they came back home and my brother was so happy and my dad SO done cause he was tired and was sorrounded by kids for 2h straight😂

Oh. My. God. A book store. With. A. Map!!! I NEED this bookshop 😂😍 also, THE BLUE ROOM!!!

I'm reviewing this video three years later and getting the same pleasure :) It’s the wonderful place!📚 Thanks 😊

i feel so nostalgic even though ive never been here before

argggg this looks like absoloute HEAVEN and bliss....

I LOVE USED BOOKS! they each tell their own story on its own...just love it

Easily the best bookstore I've ever visited. The Strand in NYC is great, too, but it feels cramped and congested at times because of the large crowds and comparatively limited space. Powell's is *MASSIVE* and it's very easy (and fun) to get lost in there. It's one of several mandatory stops for me whenever I visit the beautiful city of Portland.

That bookstore is amazing 😱 and you were right the first Harry Potter you showed was the german one. It‘s really weird when books I just normally find in my bookstore show up in the translation section in other countries.

That really resonated with me because I have always LOVED those and the dream house I envision for myself has a library with floor to ceiling bookshelves requiring a ladder just like that (as well as a big comfy chair, cozy window seat that looks out on a beautiful garden or forest, and a table/desk with a little green reading lamp just like the ones in Ivy League library scenes in movies). :-D

I love how this bookstore is so big you need a literal map. A bookworms dream.

I've just wanted to say that I had a really rough day and found this video because it was in my recommendations - I didn't look for it. It's like youtube knew what would lighten up my mood. This video made me calm and feel warm inside. - Just like another commenter put it: It made me feel at home. Plus, it has shown me a place to travel to, once the current pandemic quiets down. Thank you for this video!

The harry potter one with the mouse is the Italian one! The illustrator wasn't given any information about the story but that the protagonist was a kid and that at the school they could bring an owl or a mouse, she also designed another cover before that one where Harry had no glasses and (I believe) red hair!

I went to Powell's once (just a couple of months before this video actually) and I was so star struck that I couldn't actually choose a book to get from there! I was able to come away with a list of recommendations though so I didn't leave totally empty handed. I can't wait to go back someday!!

the bookstore is my favourite place on earth.

this was so torturous to watch while being stuck at home and not being able to visit any bookstore. also there's no such beautiful gigantic place near me. it is a dream to visit Powell's Bookstore. It is gorgeous! Thanks for sharing this.
