"sometimes I want to hold a book in my hands." -- Sounds so cute.
Plus the author would get more money too!
I actually suggested that on the Lezhin site when this series first started, along with some some of their other titles. If more people send the suggestion on their comment page, maybe they'll start publishing instead of just offering on the web. I'd totally buy the book it would be gorgeous!
Totally! And I can already imagine the different texture of papers used for instance. The dust jacket, the book illustration, the scent of ink on paper... Oh heaven!
Now there are many just-in-time printers that offer small batch prints enabling more self-published or small publishing houses or fanzines or doujinshis to create high quality books for the bookworms. I totally hope they will have a "buy in print" option on lezhin.
CHILL DUDE GETS IT!
Someone needs to publish this as a hardcover book, so I can buy it and flip through all the glossy pages. Reading stuff online is great and economical, but sometimes I want to hold a book in my hands...
