I also find it more logical to have all fiction (hardback and paperback) in one
place. That way, all of an author's works are together, and it is not necessary to
search for them in two separate locations. (Once, years ago, I had a separate
paperback rack, but it was so inconvenient I eventually stopped using it.)
