100 Fun Facts about The Girl Who Fell From the Sky: Number 72, Countdown to Publication

The downtown bookstore mentioned in The Girl Who Fell From the Sky  is Powell's Books even though it's not mentioned by name. That was one of my favorite places in the entire world when I was in high school. I'd walk in with $20.00 I had saved up and see how many books I could buy. Sometimes I'd walk away with more than 10. I loved that place. I still do.
