CALIgula Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 A little off topic, but what are you guys using as book marks? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist 666 Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 I have a small collection of actual bookmarks from bookstores I've visited around the country. But I like to leave whatever I use as a bookmark in the book when it goes back on the shelf. Sometimes that's a movie or a concert ticket, a liquor store receipt, a photo, a sticker, or an actual made/printed bookmark. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i can snag bookmarks from the stores i’ve visited i do, otherwise it’s been stickers or tickets mostly. Once used my friends “save the date” for his wedding and completely forgot about it because i got sidetracked from that particular book, haha. Still made it to the wedding though. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fat ralphy Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 It's the ADD - I cant keep track of bookmarks. Sometimes I even fold the upper or lower half into a triangle to remember where I left off on the page. Not with nice hardcover books - but paperbacks for sure. They like my bottom bitch in the book game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best ones are cut so there is a top end and bottom end. Top end indicates what page I'm on and the level which the mark is placed is the line on the page I'm at. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abrasivesaint Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 In The Spirit of Crazy Horse is incredible. Can’t recall if i brought that up around the time when I listened to it. Fuck Amazon, but Audible suckers me in every so often with their $3/3mo promos if there’s an audiobook that catches my interest: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to read American Psycho you should also read Less Than Zero and Rules of Attraction because there is intersecting characters and they’re all pretty quick and easy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
