Question to the physical book readers here, what do you use as bookmark?

I currently got a paper bookmark but don’t like it to be honest.

    How do you find the courage to do that? For me that would feel like a crime punishable by death.
    I hate seeing people abuse their books in horrendous ways, but maybe I’m just overly OCD.

      Id never do it on a borrowed/library book, but for personal books why not? You arent exactly doing significant damage to it and it’s rather unlikely that any given random book is going to significantly hold it’s value or be worthwhile on a historical timeframe or anything like that. Books are made to be read, and I kind of like how well loved books get dog eared and spine-creased over time.

      I see it as a sign of a well loved book. Having said that, I wouldn’t do it to a library book or someone else’s book.
