Today's Topic Is:
What are you Book Buying Preferences?
I personally love hardcovers and if I had the money, I would buy them over paperbacks. I honestly don't mind paperbacks but they get ripped and folded so easily. And the freaking corners start to open or bend. And hardcovers are so handy and can last for an eternity versus a paperback.
The problem with hardcovers is that they are just too expensive ranging from $13 to $17. And with that money you could probably buy up to 3 books. I find that ridiculous. I only ever buy hardcovers when they are the price of paperbacks. Or when the paperbacks aren't being sold.
Something I love about hardcovers is that sometimes you find them super pretty when you remove the dust cover jacket. Or the back of the jacket has some sort of cool poster. Why can't all hardcovers be like that?
But the problem with hardcovers is that they take up way more space on shelves than paperbacks do. It's like you can't have it one way or another. They both have cons to them.

What about e-books? We can't leave them behind.
I can't deny that I dislike e-books because it's not as fun as owning a physical copy. We can hold them and they have that smell when you barely buy it.
They come in handy when you're going on vacation and you just can't take every single book you own. And so you can just take your reading tablet along with at least 1 physical book to have. That's what I always do.

I also wanted to point out that mass-market paperbacks are the worst. I never buy them like EVER!! The spine cracks so easily and it's impossible to read them because it's hard to open them.
What do you guys think? What method do you prefer to buy? Leave a comment below with your thoughts.
