I have had 95 catches to date from wild releases (70 from OBCZs, 25 truly wild).

My preference is for trade-size paperbacks. It's easier for me (and my hands) to handle than hardcovers and mass-market paperbacks. With the exception of Romance and Fantasy, I will read just about any genre though I am partial to literature/fiction and biographies.
