FacebookIn the U.S., women writers account for only 30% of new fiction and poetry titles published in translation each year. That means English-language readers miss out on an extraordinary wealth of women writers from around the world. Since 2014, Women in Translation Month has called attention to the incredible work of these authors, and this curated collection brings together some of our booksellers’ favorite translated titles together in one place.

👀 It’s come to our attention a glittery scorch mark was found on our storefront downtown, and we are working with OMSI to see if this is connected to their ongoing investigation.

WE ❤️🔥 @powellsbooks! They have the BEST Dungeon Crawler Carl section (and we say it's the best because it includes our Virgin Dirty Shirley bar, duh)!!! It's an honor to be included in such an iconic bookstore! Go visit Powell's if you can (seriously, we could spend literal months in there) and pick up a Virgin Dirty Shirley bar for when you inevitably get lost in there. Gotta have snacks!

We love when a sub-genre gets its due, and medieval fantasy romances are having their moment. Filled with chivalric lady knights, magical quests, time travel, and plenty of yearning, these stories offer something for fans of high fantasy, romance, and even sci-fi alike. So don your armor, saddle your steed, and prepare to lose yourself in these fantastical tales. Explore this collection in the Gold Room at Powell’s City of Books. #booksellerrecommends #bookstoreromanceday

These sweet, gentle creatures give us the same feeling as our favorite books — cozy. Pick up these lovable pieces in-store or online!

When Chanrithy decided to propose, she knew exactly where she wanted to do it. "My girlfriend and I had our first date at Powell's, and we're both avid readers and love going to Powell's in our free time," she said. In a "full-circle moment" Chanrithy proposed to Danielle in the Rare Book Room, which she had personalized with photographs, rose petals, and balloons, marking the start of a new chapter in the space where their relationship first began. ♾️📚 Congratulations, Chanrithy and Danielle! We're honored to be a part of your story. 💕 📸: @paigekaptures
