I love books. I love turning the pages and smelllllll of a new book or a bookstore. I like reading on my phone bc it’s easy to access If ebooks disappeared I wouldn’t be sad I tend to collect the small paperbacks mostly. ( collect as in having over 1000 at one time before I moved )

i love paperbacks, also when it's already "used" i can see its scars from the reading and it's somehow satisfying because i know its our memories we spent together. and i hate ebooks because the smell and hold of the book is unreplacable

[@3choblast3r4]

Ereaders are great. Being able to read a book while lying down, holding an ereader that weighs 100x less than a small book, while it's pitch black in the room, is incredible. Not to mention it allows you to annotate, highlight, take notes, look up definitions with a press etc etc. On top of that you can carry thousands of books with you where ever you go.. ebooks rock

I love the hard cover. If it makes a big bang when you drop it on a table I’m happy. Even thick soft cover can do this but also the thin hard covers aren’t great either.

[@tnetroP]

I'm in my 50's now and I am trying to get back into reading. But you feeling that bound book took me right back to my childhood in the 1970's. I haven't thought about it in decades but I remember a big book of stories that my parents used to read to me. It was brown and very tatty with the spine broken. I guess it had been used to tell stories to many people before me. But I loved that book at the time.

[@daancompen9874]

Phone. Maybe it does not have the feel but it’s so nice to just be able to use it anywhere and I personally love voice support while I read and that also gives me that option

Kindle for me. I have access to all the books I ever read in a searchable tool in my phone. More recently, I used the text to speech function on a Kindle Fire for a long drive. I have my kindle fire in a leather case… not too shabby.

The electronic reader is a waste to buy in india.it costs 150$at least and you have to pay at least 5$for each book u want to read on it.+u gotta charge it.) *from the prespective of a 16 y/o*

As someone who is legally blind; I love the accessibility of a kindle and it’s convenience is unmatched. Obviously physical books are different. But to me they almost exist in a different dimension. Honestly I don’t know what I would do without a kindle.

[@foreverarmyhope]

Well, I read paper backs mostly, because they are very affordable,, but hardbacks are really nice too cause they dont bend or break their spines easily and i can open the whole book well. I think kindle can be very useful for frequent travelers and people who stay up all night reading books, because we can read while the lights are off on kindle. So for me, Paperback - (4/5) Hardback - (4/5) Kindle- (3.5/5)

[@SirKrrrapsalot]

Paperback! Love the feel and smell of a physical book. But I will switch to reading on my tablet if I have to travel light, though usually I still take one book everywhere I go.

The cloth bound books are actually troublesome in the library because the spine labels don’t stick as well, but sewn binding is the only way to go for durability.

[@blueridgeocean]

Library style is my pick. My study was filled with them, though now I only have a Kindle. Sold the house and my collection. The Kindle doesn't really do it for me though its better than nothing, i suppose.

[@dmicah3960]

I don't know why English paperback books have to be so compact and thick. I can never go through a book without bending it's back. Chinese books, on the other hand, usually have bigger pages (15cm x 21cm usually) and hence thinner. The glue thingy in the back also seeps deeper s. It's almost impossible to bend the back. Another plus is that the covers in the front plus back have an extra fold that's folded in which protects the corners from being bunched up.

Floppy paperbacks are the best because I don’t like cracking the spine and hardbacks are just inconvenient for reading as they’re only better for display

[@dolphinman6499]

Heavy hard covers because you don't have to hold them down while you're reading... Paperbacks have a certain tension to them that will not allow me to just set them down and have a nice read, you literally have to place your hand on them to keep them in place...

My fav is kindle because i always ruin the reg books I love paperback, hard back, etc EXCEPT FOR A4 AAA

[@maxbrown8044]

I think the biggest feature of the Kindle is that you can carry as many books with you as you would like. Say you're reading two or three books at a given time and want to have access to them all without going home. It's also obviously easier--and free--to get books on an e-reader. Physical books will always be more tactile, and I like having shelves of them to look at and casually draw from, but e-readers are a near infinite degree superior in most other respects.

[@jole5468]

The only correct book type is hardcover, paperback is dogshit and its the same book as if it was hardcover so most of the size and weight is the same. Cringe short/10

[@Mika_MewMew]

Just a general question, I haven't seen a library style book in ages, the most recent one I own was a sort of "American classics" collection translated to german, which I got back in middle school. Are those types of binding going out of style, or are they only used for bigger works or something?
