Today’s MUSING MONDAYS post is about bookmarks…What do you use to mark your place while reading? Do you have a definite preference? Do you use bookmarks, paper, or (gasp) turn down the pages? If you use bookmarks, do you have a favourite one?
I prefer to use bookmarks. I don't really have a favorite one and if I'm on vacation and get a new book or lose my other one, I'll just grab a piece of paper from somewhere. I have an envelope full of bookmarks that I've randomly collected from places so I can just grab from there when I loose one. I know that I don't like the metal ones with the pretty things on top. They are too bulky--I like flat ones. And I definitely don't turn the pages down!
I like flat ones too! I am going to check out the magnetic ones many have been talking about.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how people can use the metal ones. It seems they would mess up the binding.
ReplyDeleteI have a metal curvy one and it resides in the desk drawer. Gets in the way and doesn't lie flat or stay in the back of the book while I read. Give me flat ones any day. :)
ReplyDeleteRemember, librarians will haunt your dreams if you dog ear the pages of library books! I keep a container of book marks at the circulation desk. I always use one myself and go through phases-- right now I have a cityscape of Oxford, but I also Have one my daughter made in the first grade. I have a cool metal one a student gave me, but never use it. I should make it into a pin!
