Deseret book is always a great place to find gifts, art, religious books and more. One of my favorite places.

I think they sell lots of things one does not need and they are overpriced.

Loved this bookstore and Oswego temple (they go together!) Moved to Missouri where we have two temples and no LDS bookstore!

One tip: if there's a title you like check the prices on ALL copies. One book I initially set down…read morebecause the paperback was $20, but checked the hardcover out of curiosity and found it was used (didn't look it) and only cost $13! So you never know. If you're a book lover plan to spend a whole day here, or at least half. The place is obviously massive, but surprisingly well organized and mapped; there are lots of signs making it easy to find what you are looking for. Easily our favorite was the gold room which contained mystery, horror, comics and manga, as well as romance. There are computers around where you can search for specific titles, and staff is helpful with recommendations as well. In terms of the pricing, there are excellent used books. I got a copy that I would have sworn was brand new for $10 off the listed price.

Date of visit: May 11, 2026…read more This place is often listed as one of the best bookstores in the country, if not the world, and I could see why after traversing its many floors and aisles! An emporium of both new and used books (always make sure you check the price sticker on the back before purchasing in case you really need a new version of a book), there is a little bit of everything here. In addition to books, this is a great stop for souvenirs including pins, local snacks, lines, and mugs. If you're short on time, you can kill two birds with one stone here at Powell's. If you're not short on time, seek out a pass for the Rare Book Room and scope out the treasures on display there. Like everywhere else in Portland, bathrooms do have a code, so seek out an employee before looking to use the facilities.
