Paperback because it’s easier to hold and read. Hardcover is good if you want a collection to keep or pass down. Like I have all my harry potters hardcover to pass down to my kids and chronicles of narnia series hardcover. But to read paperback is more bendy lol

Interesting…
I don’t mind the oversized paperbacks, it’s the mass market ones I dislike. Just a chore to keep open and the crease in the spine makes them look more used than they actually are ?

Paperback. I like how floppy they are and I can just lay them open facedown on my leg.

I like hardcovers much more! As a mom, they can take more damage when your toddler pulls all of your books out of the book case ? But even before kids, I just liked how much more sturdy and heavy books were when they were hardcovers.

Hardcover, although some of my books are paperback because it was the only formats they came in.

If it’s only available in hardcover, I’ll take it, but prefer paperback only because it’s easier to hold for me.

Hard cover. But sometimes I’m in the mood for a paperback since they’re smaller and lighter.

I think hardcover are easier to hold and read. I don’t mind a good sized paperback either, tho. I’ve bought the smaller paperbacks but they’re harder to hold and read…you know the lil 4×6 ones.

Hardcover, but I rarely find them at thrift stores so paperback is usually the default.
