I know that the price point of the paperback version makes the books very attractive and keeps it affordable for a lot of us, but I would love a hard cover version for at least the Cat & Bones books as mine are getting pretty raggedy and I am going to have to replace them. Maybe if they did a series in hardcover they would throw in the e-book option as a bonus? :)

I agree with you Eng. I find the paperback very practical, but after re-reading the paperbacks a couple of times they look so abuse :? . for my favorite books I like to get the hard cover version. I will definitely love to get Cat & Bones books in hard cover. :D :)

Oooh...pretty organized shelf! It's alphabetized? I just did that to my shelves...I love my books. And I mush prefer the paperbacks to hardcovers. My wrist always gets kinked when I read a hardcover lying down. They're bloody heavy!

That's exactly the same problem I have with hardbacks. I try not to buy them becuase of that, but at the same time, my books are getting raggedy like eng's.

And V organised shelf WC, I don't alphabetise mine, but they are in a certain order with authors in different places as well as according to genre. I need a nice big shelf like yours though. I have two baby ones, one as part of a unit, some in a suitcase and the remainder in a box.

If they ever release hardcovers of the Night Huntress series, I'd get them. They are worth every penny *nods*

I would love to have hardcovers of these books. I thought Jeaniene said somewhere that book clubs do release her books in hardcover? So they are out there...

Update.. both EKOD and FDOC are available on ebay in hardcover...

If you jion doubleday book club you can get FDOC and EKOD in hardback. I think you only have to buy 3 more books in a year and I got 6 books for around 7.00. All hard back. That's theonly 2 they offer though. I don't know why. I would love the rest in hardback as well.
