What do you prefer, /lit/? Hardcover, trade paperbacks, mass

Hardcover if available, trade otherwise, mass market never. Mass market just feels/looks too cheap and is difficult to keep the spine pristine, plus I can't read with one hand as the book is too small to stay open on its own.

I loath mass market paperbacks.

Dang, I didn't know there was so much dislike for MMPB here

I'm not so bothered about keeping books "pristine" like this massive faggot >>9656679 (who the fuck tries to keep a mass market paperback in pristine condition that defeats their entire reason for being?), I just have gigantic hands and they're awkward as fuck.

Hardcover because then I can give it to my grandkids, though I'll never reproduce due to autism.

That's fair. I've got average sized hands so I find mass market comfortable. Would rather get hardcover than trade, though.

When you die, have your will donate your library to a charity or something, anon

Yeah I love massmarket. I just like small books in general, I wish pocket size were more popular.

Hardcovers never.

small hardcovers seem to be rare now have a few books from the 60's that are like this they are great for carrying no chance of being damaged
