I bought paperback copies of the books so that my hardcover one wouldn't wear out. Even so, the rereading pre-paperback-being-issued leaves them a little worse for wear. I am on my second hardbound copy of KoA because the back broke. I was peeved and was going to write and complain to the publisher, but managed to loose it somewhere and didn't think I could legitimately complain if I didn't still own that copy. n And you can tell that I start reading QoA after the first bit, because the edges of the pages on the rest of the book are darker. I guess this is a salutatory lesson that I should be washing my hands more often, but really, if you read the newspaper that newspaper ink manages to get on things other than the newspaper and I never think to get up and wash my hands in the middle of a reading session.
