According to the founder of online bookseller Alibris.com, an

average-sized book weighs 12 ounces.

"We analyzed all the books sold by our booksellers and determined that

the average book weighs 12 ounces and over 75% weighed under 1 pound

and eight ounces."

If you prefer the metric system, 12 ounces is equivalent to about 340

grams since there are approximately 28.3 grams per ounce.
