| If I can order a hardcover version of a book from sci fi book club for $12 or $13 I'll do that instead of getting the softcover for $9 or $10 because that's just what I prefer. Most of my reading is done in a comfy seat/couch and I find hardcovers more suitable for that. Although I don't mind taking them to doctors appointments and what not. I'm not worried about them getting damaged. Pull the slipcover thing off and put it aside until I'm done.
I also like those 'oversized' paperbacks too. The ones that are about the size of a hardcover but are paperback stock.
In the end though it's mostly just personal preference. |
