Earwicker posted:yeah sometimes there is no choice, but increasingly many good books are being released as paperbacks first these days. Depends on the book. For nonfiction biographical type stuff I'm an audiobook guy. I just don't need to concentrate too hard on the details of lost sailors or whatever. For things like Neal Stephenson, if it's not a big hardcover affair it feels wrong. For things like Philip K Dick, I feel slightly embarrassed if it's one of the new trade paperback editions and actively seek out the trashy old editions with the hilariously inaccurate cover art.

This thread has taught me two surprising things: - There are people who don't know about the trick to reading paperbacks without bending the spine? - There are people who don't just throw dust jackets away immediately?
