Yes Books is a beloved used bookstore with a large, eclectic collection of books across many subjects, including fiction, art, criticism, history, religion, psychology, and Maine history. The store offers a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere with a vibe that feels both cool and slightly chaotic, similar to a typical used bookstore. Despite some areas being a bit unorganized and having books on the floor, the selection is well-curated, allowing visitors to find hidden treasures and obscure titles, including rare and hard-to-find books. The prices are reasonable, and the staff, especially the owner, is helpful in guiding customers to interesting finds. With floor-to-ceiling books and a diverse range of titles, Yes Books is a must-visit spot for bibliophiles and researchers alike, offering a unique, treasure-hunt experience in Portland.
Awesome collection of books here, I could spend hours here. It is a little chaotic, but in the absolute best way. Everything is organized by subject matter.

Best book store around! Great eclectic collection and cool vibes. Slightly unorganized as a used book store should be but organized enough where you can find what you are looking for with a bit of searching. good prices as well!
