@BroadhurstBooks I love second hand hard back books
@BroadhurstBooks I buy hardbacks when it's a book I want to keep and paperbacks when I intend to pass it on to another reader after reading.
@BroadhurstBooks That's not an issue once they are 2nd hand though? 🤔 And, keeping books as a collector is pretty much just hardbound copies. They are also the only ones that retain a resale value, even increasing over time. (Yes, some paperbacks do command high resale prices).
@BroadhurstBooks When I speak with fellow authors and publishers,the general consensus is that hardback books are 'for keeps' whereas softbacks are often perceived as being 'disposable'. There's also binding - a thread bound hard back will always be superior quality to a perfect bound softback.
@BroadhurstBooks As someone once said to me, “go hardcover or go home.”
