Paperbacks vs's Hardbacks & eBooks →

February 6, 2023 Brent Jones
- RSS

Reading increases our knowledge of the world. The attraction of words and the stories they create is like living multiple lives. But of course, that is the real message here, but there is no harm in considering what kind of book might be regarded as the best, format-wise.

I prefer the hardback format when I read a book, but where do you put them? At least they look good on a shelf, but I need more room with about 2000 + books (both hardback and paperback) in my library. Paperback books are number 1 in sales, indicating they are preferred over hardbacks.

The jury is still out for me on eBooks, but the more I get, the more I like them.

An entire library is a significant influence, so the quantity of books matters.

Big established publishing companies and established authors like the hardback because they make more money for them.

My thoughts about this are very different as a self-published author. I love eBooks because they are easier to do than paperback. Shorter books don’t cost as much to produce, and storage is no problem. Paperbacks are my favorite because they seem more like actual books.

75% of adults in the United States read a book in some format over the last year

  • 32% of Americans claim they only read print books

  • 33% say they read both print books and e-books

  • 9% say they only read e-books

  • 23% of the respondents said that they don't read books

10 Reasons that Paperback Books are Best, Compared to Hardbacks

  • Paperbacks Books are easy to take with you everywhere.

  • You can bring more of them with you when you travel. (compared to hardbacks, that is)

  • Paperbacks don't break the bank. (Again, compared to hardbacks)

  • You can fit more of them on your shelves.

  • It's easier to lend them to a friend. (Again, compared to hardbacks

  • They're easier to read on the train or in the car.

  • They don't have dust jackets.

  • They are more flexible. (than hardbacks)

These reasons are constantly changing.
