    Such a thing doesn't exist. Until they get the new book smell down it's never going to work.

    E-reader means I can get e-books. If they're available in paperback, I'll get the paperback. Smell yes, but also the impressive look of shelves full of books wot you have read with your brain.

    It is a pain in the arse though when the books start accruing in piles as the lack of spare wall for more shelves.
    But on the other hand new books...

    What if you bought a massive amount of thumb drives to store the books one, one book per thumb drive then you can have shelves and shelves of thumbdrives

    I'd only lose those

    Books are great. I love books me.

    Just wish publishers would stop randomly changing the size of them midway through a series. Discworld and Black Library have ruined my collections. RUINED I SAY!

    Don't get me started on this. My series of Sharpe novels have this issue, it has to be be the correct publisher from the correct print so that everything matches up.

    The HH series is impossible, especially buying online you don't know if you will get Gold/Silver or Bronze script then you have the different colour tabs on the top.


    Similiarly my GG and Caiphas Cain books are the omnibus esdtion so I have to wait for the next omnibus to come out which is years after the last book in the series individually. At least with ebooks I d not have that issue.

    that is one of the main reasons I switched to mostly ebooks, can't stand having differently sized books/colours/styles in a series.

    I'm particularly miffed about the Time of Legends series. Really, really classy design to start with. Then suddenly went up a size, with wrap around art.....and they're not going to publish them any other way.

    Oooooh, it makes me blood boil!
