Book Marks!

[{sarah}]

Oh yes, me too Melinda, bending the spine gives me cold shivers!

How do you guys remember the page numbers??? I could go three days between reading sessions & there is no way I could remember a page number that long!

I buy bookmarks but usually end up using whatever is handy.
I usually try to read forward to an easy number to remember if I don't have a bookmark something that ends in 5 or 0 or an easy number like 44 or 66.
If I don't remember I just flip around the area I was in until I find where I was up to.

My current bookmark is about as useful to me as a chocolate fireguard.

Olivia made it for me, and it is really cute: her handprint and a poem, laminated. And I love it.

BUT every morning Olivia will come into bed with us, and see my current book, with the bookmark in it, on my bedside table, and grab it OUT OF THE BOOK and say "I made this for you Mummy"......and my place is lost again.......

Sounds like bookmarks are a favourite toy of everyone's kids LOL!! My new one is definitely being kept up high, would hate for my crystal to be broken!

i refuse to go anywhere without getting to the end of a chapter - i'll spend an extra few minutes at work in the arvo so i'm at the end of a chapter before i go home! makes it easy if, for some reason, my book mark goes walk abouts! when i DO get to read at home, i do the same thing. at the moment, i've got four books on the go - two at work, two at home. i pick up whichever one i'm in the mood for at the time - so reading til chapters end is important otherwise i'll get confuzzled about where i'm at!

Oh yes, definitely have to finish the chapter before stopping here too. I drive Aaron nuts, saying no no I can't do xyz yet because I have 3 pages to go first!! He just stops anywhere.

Oh I hate it when reading on the train you have a page or two to go and you get to your station... Drives me nuts. I have to get home or into work and finish the chapter...

Yeah, I usually use my library receipt, or some other receipt, sometimes an old envelope... I've never had a nice bookmark! Sarah your book mark is so purrdy!!!

I can just stop anywhere as well, I don't take much notice of chapters, I do like to finish a paragraph but thats about it...
