Paperback or Hardcover?

Post by Hallow »

What type of book do you prefer? I prefer paperback. Why you ask? Simple: It's less money.

Not only that but I find that paperbacks are easier to read, as they aren't as heavy and other reasons.

What do you say?

It depends on the book, if it's a big book then I want it hardcover because I like using them as booster seats so I seem taller.

Other than that paperback because it's flexible.
Yeah, you were right about me, but can I get myself out from underneath this guilt that will crush me? in the choir, I saw our sad Messiah he was bored and tired of my laments

I like both actually. Paperback: It's cheaper and I don't have alot of money. lol. Hardback: To me it lasts longer.
Why is love not meant for me at all? Do I deserve this?

I prefer hardcover for my nonfiction and paperback for my fiction. Or as we call it in the book business, Trade Cloth, Trade Paper, and Mass Market.

paperback. I'm also poor. The only hardcover books I have are all very old and I didn't have to shell out the money for them.

Hard Cover because they're easier to take care of.
There is no true good, or evil even the best of good intentions can cause negative effects to take place.
