I don't care if it is hardcover or not really All my books look like they have never been read and I hate it when someone borrows one and turns down the page or if, it's paperback and they fold it GRR.  |

All of my books look new and they are years old...and I do not loan any out now because they were returned in an awful condition....  |

Yeah, I used to feel the same way about my books. Then I realized that just letting them sit there, rarely looked at, much less read, wasn't doing anyone any good. Plus by allowing someone to borrow a book, they get the chance to enjoy it as much as I did and maybe it'll get them interested in reading again.  |

Wow, I couldn't agree more with this post. I feel the same way as you. I love reading! I especially love reading hardcover books. If I can buy a hard copy, I will. I'm really glad you posted this. ---TD---  |

I love them too. With me I think that it's a respect thing for reading. The hard covers get put on a shelf like some knick knack to be admired and all I have to do is glance at them to bring the story to mind again. I would live in a library if I could.  |

I love to read too and I have maybe 200 books more or less. I used to lend my books out too...but no more. My neighbor borrowed books from me and later on lent one to someone else....so that ended that because I never got it back.  |

I love books. I have complete series in hardcover only of harry potter and the earth children series so far. I am awaiting the old (and proabably dead by now) jean auel to write her last two books. she takes forever and I mean forever to write them...which is fine because they are that good (clan and the cave bear is the first book in the series)..but I fear she is dead now and havent heard anything...I think they are trying to find a ghost writer like they did for VC andrews and that scares me. noone could replace andrews...and noone can replace auel.  |

I think Jean Auel is still living today . Google( Is Jean Auel still living today?) and you can read about her.  |

I really don't read too much anymore. I like to read USM stories and the newspaper, that's about it. True, the simplest things in life are far better! Thanks~~MidnightSun  |
