When reading paper books, I hugely prefer hardcovers, but they're so expensive... so I don't have many. I have a book sitting on a shelf here, and I really want to read that story, which is not available as an e-book. The thing that keeps me from it is the fact that it is a very nice hardcover... of about the size of the Cleric Quintet you see above, and almost 1.000 pages thick as well. Its a beautiful book to see and hold, but for ease of reading, the Kindle wins hands down.
