Reason #34 why I'm a little weird: I like a book more if it has a matte cover rather than a glossy cover (this applies to both hardcover and paperback books).
I read a lot of books from the library, and they're all in their protective plastic covers. But you can always get a little feel of the actual dustjacket when you open the book, and I tend to lose a little respect for the book if it has a glossy cover.
I have no explainable justification for this prejudice.
Yes, I'm an odd duck.
(I'm also hoping someone randomly searches "glossy vs. matte" and finds this post thinking that it's going to be about lipstick...)
