bulked up
A deliberate attempt to make a book thicker and,
therefore, of a more substantial appearance.
Books, and especially novels, are sometimes
"bulked up, ' i.e., printed on BULKING BOOK PAPER so
that a higher price may be charged. Such paper,
however, is often inferior in both strength and
printing quality to a more compact paper. (256 )
