Powell's City of Books is such a nice escape from the flood of bland, boring mainstream drivel out there. I have to get my fix every once in a while and it's the first place I take friends who come to town to visit. Support your local bookstore!!!
(Do wish they had more magazines, though)
Pros: Great book selection, Roomy, Hard-to-find books
Cons: Not enough mags, Few places to sit, Fairly expensive
