livre reli�

My comment:

en fran�ais, un livre reli� a une couverture dure et les feuilles sont cousues.
Un livre dont les feuilles sont cousues mais avec une couverture souple est un livre broch�.
Un livre dont les feuilles sont coll�es et avec une couverture souple est g�n�ralement connu sous le nom de livre de poche car on ne dit pas "livre coll�".
