Hardcover or softcover — what is the difference?
Softcover is a flexible cover and the least expensive; hardcover is rigid, heavier and made to sit on a shelf for years. Both use the same paper inside and the same size. Options shows all three side by side with the price for your book: SOFTCOVER GLOSSY is marked BEST PRICE, HARDCOVER GLOSSY is our MOST POPULAR, and HARDCOVER MATTE is the PREMIUM LOOK.
