oops I though that the question was which I like best. LOL

anyways I have the first six in paperback, and Deathly Hallows in hardcover, but I'm getting the trunk with all the books hardcover, and give my non-harry Potter fan friends the paperbacks so they can get into it too Wink

Dude! I totally have the first 4 in paperback. and the last 3 in hardcover. I would have them all hardcover but I got the 4 for my b-day. that was before I had even thought about getting into hp. Sad I do like hardcover best though. I've read my Pbacks so many times they are about to fall apart. I'm planning on getting the 7-book set when it comes out though Smile

hardbacks are cool, but my friend gave this late bloomer the 1-6 set in paperback. I read the hardcover version of HP7, and it's not the easiest to maneuver. Fell on my face a few times while reading in bed! ha

I like paperback most of the time, but with Harry Potter, I like the hardcover better because I'm used to it. Dumb reason, but I like it. They take a lot more wear and my brothers borrow my copies ALL the time. And they don't come back completely ruined since they're hardback. They might have some peanut butter and jelly stains or some sticky stuff, but they look better on the outside.

Hardcover for the sixth and seventh. My brother has the rest in hardcover as well. I prefer it that way.
