5.0 of 5 stars. Always the last stop in my bookstore trifecta (Powell's and Countermedia are the other two stops), I'm always impressed with your clean simplicity.

Great store! by becca o. at InsiderPages

I love Reading Frenzy! You can find any sort of zine here, and they also carry a lot of independently published books. They also host readings with really interesting folks! This store is a perfect compliment...

Yelp.com Review - by Chloe E.

4.0 of 5 stars. First things first, I have to admit that I am the founder and owner of this shop, but to be fair I only gave it 4 stars because it could always be better and I'm not satisfied with anything I do! So,...

4.0 of 5 stars. If you are looking for a unique present that typifies Portland, come here and buy a zine. While they might not all be made here, where else can you find a whole store devoted to these wonderful little...

Yelp.com Review - by Jacob G.

4.0 of 5 stars. I like the idea of a store for nothing but indie publishing. It's just that I could never find anything worth buying after reading. However, I like the idea a lot.

Yelp.com Review - by Carissa w.

5.0 of 5 stars. Reading Frenzy is a tiny store with a big heart and a medium sized selection. It's also a great place for the occasional reading--Dave Egger's new book What is the What premiered here, not at Powell's...

Independent Press Emporium by Andrew B. at InsiderPages

Reading Frenzy is not the place to buy bestsellers, most hardback or trade fiction, or popular magazines. What this place does--sell indie books, magazines, and comics--it does well. Want Burn Collector #13?...
