    Nothing beats a good floppy paperback! Hardcover doesn't feel as comfortable in my hands. If I want to keep the book and display it, I'll buy it in hardcover. Otherwise, paperback. For traveling, I take my Kobo!

      @@lightyagami1634. I meant that hardcovers aren't as comfortable in my hand when I'm actively reading. They're more bulky, heavy, and the dust jacket drives me nuts. I just take it off when I read. But if I'm traveling and taking books around, it's def my Kobo I take! I only get hardcovers from Book of the Month so I do still read them.

      Which Kobo do you have? I like The Kindle Paperwhite, but it just doesn't feel right. I'm shopping around for another ereader!

    Depends on the book. Any book worthy of being in a collection should have a hardcover. How the hell do you read an audio book, that's like saying "tasting a movie", it's not the same thing.

    I like hardcover because they last longer. 😂 I have a hard cover book from 1921. That thing has been put through the ringer but it’s still looking good. In the time we’ve had it I’ve gone through 3 copies of Jurassic Park (paper back) The covers got super messed up from taking them on and off the shelf all the time (Jurassic Park and it’s sequel are my favorite books)

    At this stage of my life, it comes down to font size, and that tends to be hardcover. That said, a digital read is always a large print edition when you need it to be.

      Why isn’t it? Studies show that the brain goes through the same while physically reading or listening to an audiobook. Also, like, what about blind people that rely on them? Don’t they read? C’mon.
