#riotgrams #day6 - #hardcovervspaperback
Picked up a used copy of the first #paperback trade yesterday, before I realized the full #hardcover was available. In my defense, B&N were really unclear on their website what editions were currently available.
This was an easy prompt. Two of all my all-time favorite writers. I'm sure I'll accumulate more editions as the years go by.

When it comes to #hardcovervspaperback my collection seems to suggest that I‘m on the side of the paperback. Out of over two hundred books, less than two dozen are hardcover. Not sure why this huge discrepancy, other than frugality?
Anyway, the photo is of a rare case where I decided to replace an existing edition (blue) with a new one (red)... but haven‘t gotten rid of the existing yet. 😳
#HardcovervsPaperback #Riotgrams I guess I would say I like hardcovers better.But , I have mentioned on Litsy before, I buy something in hardcover cuz I just can‘t wait to read it, then it‘s out in paper before I get to it.😞Or sometimes having multiple copies just because we like variant covers ,like to have extras , beat up ones for the reading etc.I happened to just like the copy of this title especially printed for World Book Night U.S. 2012.

I still haven‘t attempted to read book one in Spanish, but it is definitely a goal of mine before the end of the year!
My current stack of paperback to hardcover matches. I have rules when thrifting. One is to replace paperbacks with hardcovers then donate paperbacks to the FLLs in my neighborhood.
Sometimes I donate a mint condition paperback just to keep a well-used thrifted hardback. But #RulesAreRules !
I was so excited to find the tagged book - took me forever to find in hardback!

Paperback vs hardcover: what's your preference? I'm typically buying books that I've already read and want to own, so often they're out in both formats. When they're used, they're about the same price too. I love the look and feel of a hardcover so much more, but when I put a few of them next to a paperback stack I realize I could fit SO many more books on my shelves if I opted for paperbacks instead.
