This really upsets me. My preferred format has always been the mass market paperback. I can often fit them in a back pocket or cargo pocket, they fit better in my backpack, and they're easier to hold in positions with one hand. They're simply the superior format. I know they probably don't look cool on coffee tables or whatever, but they also use less surface area on coffee tables. I hate floppy coffee table sized paperback books.

It's fine, though, because most of what I read is old shit. I can keep buying my used mass market paperbacks. By the time the last ones disappear, I'll probably be dead.
