Well, I am not really one who collects. Because I read so many I have very few keepers. But when I do keep them it does not matter if it’s Hardcover or Paperback. I don’t really read any illustration books so therefore I tend to keep text books. It really does not matter if its signed or not, although if it is signed I am more likely to keep it. If you look at my current mountain of books to read I have mostly paperbacks, because they are easier to read.
