lathanyThese days most of my physical books come from Wordery. This is a company that - as you might guess from the name - supplies mostly books but also does calendars, advent calendars, road maps and various other bits and pieces that aren't quite books.
In turns out that Wordery supplies every book with a bookmark (actually, every thing with a bookmark - we felt that the advent calendar really didn't need one!). These are made of card and the Xmas ones were somewhat themed. I've never really got on with bookmarks. When I was much younger I did the evil thing of leaving books open and upside down whilst these days I tend to close them (not least because I mainly read on the train) and then hunt my place when I next read. However, with my Xmas Wordery books I started using the bookmarks.
Now, every time I close a book I want a bookmark. I'm surprised at how little it took to become a habit.
