SO many old books. I still have the (shitty little paperback Canadian editions of) Harry Potter books 1 & 2 that my grandma gave me for my ninth birthday even though the glue has disintegrated and half the pages are falling off the binding and they're stuck together with masking tape. But I grew up reading those exact physical copies, and damned if I'm gonna read any other copies for as long as these ones are readable. Even if a decade of reading American english means I now blink whenever "Defense" is spelled "Defence".

I still have my first paperbacks of those, too! Chamber of Secrets is holding together okay, but Philosopher's Stone is literally split in half. ...For some reason, Order of the Phoenix (hardcover, though) is pretty busted-up too.

Yeah, I got the hardcover American edition of OotP the day after it came out and mine is completely busted up too. I think it's because it's so thick that the stress of the weight of the pages on the binding was too much. Also, I re-read it about fifty bajillion times.

Mine too! I have two copies of OOTP for this reason, but I can't bear to toss the busted up one.

Mine's the Australian(/British?) edition, but yeah, it's possible! HBP has some damage too, and that's the second-thickest.

And yes, the whole reading fifty bajillion times thing ;)

Thankfully I got them as hardcovers. But if I remember correctly they did a few horrible things with translating names in book 1 and 2 xD God I associate fond memories with those books :)

I think I never threw a book away, I'm really, really possessive of my books *head desk*
