Recently I've been taking notice of the fact that my little brother dog-ears the pages of his books.
Personally, I use a bookmark because I like bookmarks and think they are quite handy in preserving the quality of a book. I have a 1975 box set of The Lord of the Rings series in paperbacks, and I would personally reprimand any individual in my house that would dare dog-ear one of those glorious, yellowed pages.
So... which is it? To bookmark, or not to bookmark? Are there certain books you couldn't care less about if they were treated in such a derogatory manner? Or perhaps you prefer bookmarks with tassels and beads to plain ones?
