What? Following because I’m confused lol
I think it is one of the smaller paperbacks and the trades is a larger paperback.
Yes it’s a smaller thicker book
That’s what I thought thank you!
Usually an older book reprinted
The reason why I’m asking is because I like the cover of the mass market because it goes with the other covers.
Mass Market is smaller

Hardcovers = (large size) – Trade paperbacks (medium size) – Mass Market paperbacks (small size).
Is trade paperback the regular paperbacks that are being sold or are they different from regular paperbacks?
It’s usually smaller and has a thinner paper back cover. At least thats the only difference on the ones I ordered from amazon.
Thank you guys!
They’re also bound cheaper so they can be sold cheaper and therefore companies can produce more hence “mass market”
This is also a common format for books that are required reading in school because teacher can purchase larger quantities at a lower price. I don’t think I ever read a hardcover in school.
It’s a smaller paperback.
They’re smaller, “pocket” size, and the paper and printing are of somewhat inferior quality. In some pages the ink can be very pale.
What are these called ? Hardcover but tiny
I love those! I have a couple: Flowers for Algernon and The Collector. Don’t know of a specific name for them.
