The last Saturday in April marks Indie Bookstore Day Past Event Like List , the nationally recognized holiday that encourages readers to support their local small-but-mighty booksellers (read: not Amazon) while checking coveted tomes of their reading list and vying for prizes. To make the most out of the occasion, post a Bookstore Day-inspired selfie and post it on social media in the days leading up to April 24 (including the day of), and tag your favorite local bookstore and two of your bookish friends, along with the hashtags #BookstoreShoutOut and #IndieBookstoreDay. You may be chosen to receive an Independent Bookstores of the United States map from Pop Chart, a 2021 IBD tote bag, and credit for free audiobooks courtesy of Libro.fm. Without further ado, read on for some of our favorite small bookstores to shop from in Portland, complete with their latest offerings under Portland's current phase of reopening.
