I prefer supple paperback myself (takes up less space in my backpack), but sitting down with a good solid hardcover title on a cold night is a pretty awesome thing to do.

Japanese, yes. Though it is translated, a lot of the books still read right to left.
Clarification: The English itself reads left to right, but the panel layout is intended to be read right to left.


I never knew Japanese went right to left...very very interesting.

Theoretically it's also supposed to go up and down, too, but you see a lot more sideways-written Japanese nowadays.

What they said...
Except I use my right more often. And for really real, I sometimes use my feet.

I hold my book in both hands, usually, or if I'm sitting/lying down, I just hold it open with my left hand and turn the pages with the right.

That's my usual reading right there, only backwards. I'm more of a right-handed smoosher-downer and a left-handed page turner. (One of which I was reading today...)
