Do you fold the page or use a bookmark

[Skidder]

I just finish off, close it and put it back. If I need to find my page again it is the one stuck together.

I am not retarded, so I remember the number/chapter/section/paragraph/content.

 

[Bleek]

Remember the page number and or read to the end of the chapter.

+1

I have partial OCD; any form of crease in my book annoys me.

 

[SiriusB]

Last book I tried to read I just tried to remember the page number but failed so started reading it again from the start, this happened about 3 or 4 times until the reading was abandoned.

If you utterly fail to find where you left off, may I suggest a more interesting book?

I use anything - postcards, receipts etc. BUT NEVER FOLD ARRGGGHHHH!

I have never folded the pages of a book, that's just barbaric. I really hate it when people damage the spine of a book too.

Use a bookmark, if nothing to hand then fold the page.

**** it, its only a book!

I buy all my books used for 1p off Amazon, so folding doesn't bother me. I'm more interested in the words in the book rather than what it looks like.

Im sorry, I didn't know you were reading the Gospels of Henry the Lion

If it’s a paperback I’ll fold the pages and even bend the spine it’s not comfortable to hold. Most of them get passed on anyway and the paperback won’t feel the pain.

 

[Vampyre]

Do not fold the pages of my books, or even open them too wide that it damages the spine

That's me too!

 

[Kutter]

Rip out the pages as i go.


not really, i fold.

As the son of a librarian i kinda have to use a bookmark, but usually it's just anything lying around. Can't seem to hold on to them for that long...

Also as the son of a librarian I don't tend to want for bookmarks. Have myself a nice leather one I've managed to keep for a year or so now - I'll no doubt lose it tomorrow.

 

[Raymond Lin]

Bookmark.

Depends on the book, quality, newly bought, or an old copy that isn't worth anything.

 

[Spunj99]

It'd be quite funny to see peoples bookmarks since the majority seem to do the same as me and just pickup any flat object. Got 2 on the go at the moment, one marked by a Top Gear top trumps card and the other by some "Nokia maps" phone shaped card, random!

I buy my books for about £2 off the net anyway so don't care about longevity, the only people that read them after me are friends, never sell any on. :/

I bought a bookmark fairly recently, before that I used post it notes.
