I think Volume 1 is for Advent/Christmas, not Ordinary Time 1-17, right? It is usually the lightest of the four, since it covers the shortest amount of elapsed time.
@smcatharine it seems to me ascension will have a similar issue. Obviously this is just an observation from pictures, but although their version looks smaller in pages height and width, the depth of the book looks much thicker.Based on some videos I have seen of it being handled.
