I skipped the sewing and just glued the signatures straight to the spine on a cheap paperback rebind last month, and by the time my nephew cracked it open the third time the whole block pulled away from the cover, so now I'm wondering if anyone here has a go-to shortcut that actually holds up or if I just need to accept that sewing is the only way.
