Appreciation post: Bookshop in Portland had the best adaptation nook

I visited Powell's Books last weekend and they had a whole shelf dedicated to books that were turned into movies, with little notes comparing the two. Saw the Dune display had like 15 different editions. Has anyone else found a spot that does this sort of thing well?

Oh man, I gotta disagree a bit here. @quinn_king16 I know a lot of people love Powell's Dune setup but in my experience those comparison notes can be heavy on the "movie was better" bias which just rubs me wrong. I've found a few smaller indie shops that do these displays way more balanced with actual pros and cons for both versions.

Yeah that Dune section at Powell's is legit, they really go all out with the comparison notes.
