No kidding, the racism can get pretty ugly. This one's available on Google's e-reader collection (WHICH WE IN NO WAY ENDORSE OR APPROVE OF ETC ETC)

I have not yet reached my goal, but my cause is just!

Looks like the actual Portland bookstore used to film the well-known Portlandia sketch is sooo over Portlandia now.

Actually they literally wrote an open letter, 'f*ck Portlandia' about its decision to post the sign and to stop associating with the IFC show.

It's always a win to see a seller who cares so much about his product that he's willing to give (some of) it away for free, just to spread the joy s/he finds in it to others. "The Proprietor" in this pic doesn't just sell books to meet a profit motive (although that's obviously important), s/he genuinely cares about reading and encouraging other people to read, unlike proprietors of certain other bookselling chains.

I tried to keep my tongue off the latest David McCullough release but it was too sexy and they caught me and made me buy it. Now I want to go to Paris and be brilliant or something.

THE GREAT BOOK-EYE SEES ALL.

And they share them on signs.

Seems legit!

Try a different bookstore.
