"Congratulations to Stephanie and Aliya on your engagement!" Powell's Books, Portland, Ore., posted on Instagram. " 'I just couldn't imagine proposing anywhere else,' said Stephanie. 'The city of Portland has seen our relationship grow from a quick message on a dating app to a life long commitment. Meeting during an global pandemic feels like a love story, so it only felt right to be surrounded by queer stories when I asked her to marry me.' We're delighted and honored that your story is now forever part of the LGBTQ+ section at Powell's. Thank you for sharing this chapter with us!"
