Paperback
Hardcover
Yeah same reason for me, i just can't stand when papaerbacks flip pages and close buy themselves, that's what's good with hardcovers, you can leave them open and you don't have to hold the pages down when you read them. if only hardback was cheaper, what makes it so expensive!?Originally Posted by GooeyToast

Soft! It's too difficult to hold open with a hard cover.

ANYTHING! As long as it's a book.

now that i have to carry three 1000+ page hardcover casebooks to school every day I really dislike hardcovers. I tend to prefer paperbacks anyway. the contents of a book are what matters, so otherwise might as well go with cheaper and lighter.

Paperback, yeah. Hardcovers are really beautiful, but only worth buying if they have the awesome cool covers made of strange material with gold writing printed on top. Otherwise, it's all much de same.
Eep! We were discusisng this in class yesturday. Now I like paper back as you can fold the book and make it easier to read, specially when travelling. But hard backs are great cause of the jackets, but I have to remove the jacket cause I dont want to ruin it whilst reading. Hard backs can be a pain to read whilst travelling I think.
Paperback takes up less space and feels nicer to hold, in my opinion.

Seriously. Get a laptop and download eBooks. Really.
I prefer hardback books, but usually buy paperbacks because they're cheaper.

Sometimes I wonder what my life would be like if I were as great as Paulo Wanchope.
It's difficult to read a hardback naked.
Thus, paperbacks are superior in their flexibility and also because of their vastly reduced price.

It is not the same (for me). Plus my laptop is heavy. I like having a book in my hands. I find it different reading text on a computer screen than in print. I prefer print. Plus you cannot read something from your laptop while waiting for the bus outside. If you did, it would be awkward.
It depends on the book. If it's from one of my favorite authors, it has to be in hardcover. They look way nicer on my bookshelf. If I'm just reading it for the sake of reading it, paperback will do just fine. It's a thing.
Generally, I prefer hardcover.
Hardbook is better, but paperback is cheaper and thus tends to win.
Like many of you, I also like paperback since it's cheaper. And I'm all about what's cheaper. Hardback covers come with those sleeve things too, and they slide off the book when you read it and get all crinkled and such. I take them off and always lose them and it upsets me
