Hardcover edition of Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins, published by Scholastic in 2025.

A book bound with a rigid protective cover.

What makes a hardcover book "hard" is the case, or two boards, that are made from thick cardboard and wrapped in cloth, paper, or another protective material that helps protect the pages inside. Hardcover books are made to last longer and withstand more than a paperback book. They usually are about 6 x 9 inches.[1]
