May 18, 2010 10:22 am I love singles mainly becuase I enjoy the episodic feel that they have. However, Trade paperbacks and hardcovers do look nice on a bookshelf. My wife in paticular wishes I would switch to getting all trades becuase after a while singles do start to take up a lot of room.  Sure trades take up room as well BUT they are actually attractive on a bookshelf. I can't imagine putting singles on a book shelf. All you'd have is a mass of plastic and white. Also when I go on work trips the trades are a lot more durable then a single. If a Trade gets smashed in my suitcase somehow then I am sad but i'll fix it. If a SINGLE gets smashed in my suitcase then I am pissed and devastated.
