At some point during the Kenton Library Book Group, David, our book group leader, offered us free bookmarks he had received. They were promoting the 2011 Jane Eyre movie and had a picture of Mia Wasikowska and a pretty blue tassel. Sentinel pulled off the tassel right away, but I started marking my reading goals on my bookmark and just kept using it.
Wow! That is a serious record. I have a pile of favorite bookmarks in my bedside table. That helps me to cycle through them and not always use just one. Many of them have been given to me by my students and are quite precious to me.
