Will this hold a REAL book? A hardback? A paperback?

I use it for my Kindle and it is perfect. I set my kindle right in the opening you can see. It might hold a thin hardback/paperback, but not much more than that. I think you could prop it up but I don't think it would stay.

It would hold it but they wouldn't stay open unless you broke the backing of the book to keep the pages open and then it might not,

I believe it will hold a book. May depend on size of book also. I just don't think it will hold it open. I love it for the kindle and use it for my cell phone sometimes

It certainly does (I also love it for a kindle or tablet). Keep in mind, it doesn't "hold" it, your book leans on it. But, all I have ever had to do, for large heavier books, is rest my hand on it, near the center and on the bottom, to hold pages open. Smaller books and paperbacks can have the pages "tucked" into the lip at the bottom and pretty much be hands-free.

No, it will not "hold" a real book, but it will brace it in your lap for comfortable reading.

yes it's a full size not a knockoff that is small and three sided this one has four sides and will hold a hardcover

The Peeramid works well holding books of all kinds. Paper backs are more difficult to keep open while reading but still works good. I use it a lot for holding my Nintendo DS too. I recommend it to anyone.

Yes, it will! I use my iPad, crossword puzzle book, hard back or paperback books on it. I use it sitting in recliner watching tv or lying in bed. Am very pleased with the pyramid pillow.

Yes. The two arms will hold a book that is about 4-5" when open. (We actually use it to hold a small netbook computer, though.)

I tried it with several hardbound books. It really does not work for most normal size hardbacks. The slots that hold the tablet are about 8 inches long so if your book is longer than that when it is open this will not work for you. It might work for a paperback but not one with more than 400 pages or so because it would be too thick to fit in the slot.

It depends on how big the book is, I have some thick and thin paperbacks and the same with the harder books. However my paperback are lighter and I can put more of them on a shelf that can not hold as much weight. I have about 30 paperbacks on the third shelf from the bottom and 18 hardback on the bottom shelf. My other shelves are a mixture.

This would handle a few books well. It'd be a bit trying with let's say a Intro to Biology/ Chemistry book. THat'd just be one heavy load out for one arm. It would hold them, but you would just murder your shoulder. I usually kept a folder, notebook and 1 textbook (Medium size).

I'm pretty sure it will. To my knowledge It can hold a book up to 5" thick. It's very sturdy.

It is a loop, which I use to hang it on a door knob when I'm not using it. FYI, the holder works well only with small paperbacks. It doesn't support large paperbacks and hardback books.

If you are talking about one or two paperbacks, it would be fine. But, while large, you couldn't get a hardback book in it.

Absolutely, this will hold a hard cover book. The construction is very sturdy, impressively solid.

Sure. It has flexible flat wire arms that hold the book. It will be bigger than the book but it will work fine.

Soft paperbacks. I have hard cover books on mine and after only a few days they are starting to sag.

Not sure about paperbacks although it does come with a bookmark attached. I bought it because I am supposed to look forward also because of my neck. I usually just sit it on my lap or put it on a small table. There is a deep groove along each side that I suppose would hold a book.

Its' depend on thickness of the book. It will hold 3 books If a book is around 2 inches thick.

Priscilla, i am really not sure of it's weight capacity, but i have used it to hold a hardback book. It will not work on paperback books tho' cause there is no way to hold the pages in place. I hope this helps you decide.

It's designed to hold DVD's/Blue rays. So as long as your books are about that size that would work.

I haven't actually measured it, but it is generous enough for most of my hardback books. I have been really pleased with it. It is sturdy, holds a lot of books, looks far nicer than one would think for such a reasonably priced item. I would buy another should the need arise or as a gift.

I use it mostly for my Kindle, so I don't have a lot of experience with paperbacks. However, I would think that it would NOT be very easy without taking the book totally out. Plastic bar holds the book in place well, but in order to turn the page you would have to loosen the bar, turn The page, and then reposition everything again. If you wouldn't mind doing that it could work. Hope this helps.
