The mass market paperback is the GOAT book format for me. Portability. Is. Key. And I like how the pages get a little crispy.

And for me just. Fun nostalgia of reading Star Wars mass market paperbacks all through school. I just like how they feel. And love the price

As someone who has sweaty hands the only inconvenience of the format is that I hate getting my books wet from sweat and having the pages turn yellow. Big issue for me so trade paperback is my go since it’s a middle point in comfort when holding and portability.
