Terrible experience.Owner asked me if I was there to shoot dope in his bathroom when I asked if I could use it. Then I proceeded to purchase a book and he said my girlfriend and I are “sus”. Ironic.First time in Portland and probably my last.

Extremely cool book shop, one of the few I hadn't visited yet living here for over 20 years. My only regret is that I didn't find this place sooner! Carries some really powerful classics as well as unique and outstanding fresh literature.

I received an incredible book as a gift for international women’s day. Third Eye did an amazing job fulfilling orders and communicating about the process due to the sheer number of free books that were requested. I am so thankful to have received this book so I can continue my anti-racism journey and I will be doing my best to support Third Eye going forward! I hope they win best bookstore in Portland ♥️

I just received this free book from Third Eye Books in the mail. I am looking forward to learning (and un-learning) from it. This one was free, and because I've had such a good experience, I plan to purchase my books from them in the future.

A truly excellent bookstore and resource for learning! Black owned and operated. They take great thoughtfulness and care in what they do, their social media is great and they are incredibly helpful in pointing you in the direction of your next great read. Their spiffy website allows you to order books they don't even carry and receive them at your doorstep. Couldn't recommend them more! Thank you Third Eye for all you do! Our community is better because you are here :)

Best book store I’ve ever been to! The owner was so kind and welcoming to me! He had so much personality. The space was well organized with an amazing selection of books. Even a book section for little brown children. I loved to see that. I do not have children but when I do I want them to be able to read books that represent them as well. And teach them to value themselves. Charles does a great job of picking out the books to put in his store. I then went next door to his wife’s business wholistic healing and chatted with her. Both businesses are so well put together. And those two are so full of love. His wife wrapped me in her arms & gave me a hug before I left. Energy doesn’t lie. And they are great souls with amazing businesses. ❤️

Nice independent bookstore focused on the African American experience. Broad selection of books and periodicals in a small space. ❤️

There are a ton of excellent titles packed into this small shop. Enjoyed my time browsing and came away with two great books for myself and my 9 year old.

Went in on my birthday yesterday to buy myself a few things, and get a copy of the Black panther Party graphic novel for my mom. I spoke with Charles, one of the owners, and we had an excellent conversation. He is very helpful and very welcoming, and holds space extremely well to make real connections with his customers. He's extremely knowledgeable about so many topics, especially the history of race relations in Oregon, which is one of the books I had gone there looking for. He's very good at making recommendations for what you're looking for, and is genuinely a delight to buy things from! Looking forward to returning again and again, hopefully next time I'll get to meet his wife who also owns the store and has a holistic healing business in the building next door!So great to see them thriving on Division, and in a storefront that has been on that street for a very long time. Old Division was such a different place than it is now, with so many massive newly constructed buildings with very little character. The building they are in is part of old Portland, as are they, and it is fitting that they are representing the important and wonderful history and legacy of black people in Oregon from an older building with a lot of character.

Michelle and Charles have produced an eclectic collection of books and gifts for every reader. Many items are hand picked and they will even special order for you. If you want children's books - they have them. If you want sci-fi books - that too. Need a tarot deck or some Florida water? Check that's there too. Educational or business minded or pretty obscure that you haven't found somewhere else? Start here they either have it or will get it. I love helping my community by buying my books here. Check them out and tell them Sherry S. sent you!
