I see bookmarks are making a comeback, first with the limited Snoopy line and now with the C.O.A.C.H line. Made me find this one that Coach sent me back in 1991. Did anyone else get one of these? (Sorry for the sideways pics)

Wow, very nice gesture on Coach's part (in 1991).
I was a struggling college student in those days and only bought 2-3 Coach bags/accessories a year, and only ever from the outlets, so I guess I wasn't a 'special' customer back then....

I'm a big bookmark gal myself (I just posted about the C.O.A.C.H. neon ones in that thread....).

I also picked up two of the Camo ones they had out in the last floorset (one to gift to my friend who's family is military) . I think I'm one of the few who still prefer actual books to e-books!

No, I prefer actual books too. And I have a little collection of bookmarks.

Oh no, you are far from one of a few CA...you are one of MANY! I am from a family of readers and most of us are 'tech savvy' and we all want a book in our hand and not a Kindle or iPad for reading.
 
These leather bookmarks look nice, I'll have to try one.
I love books and have a large collection, and never thought I would like a kindle or nook. But I bought Kindle fires for the grandkids and liked how they could download books so fast, so I got the Kindle app to try it out on my ipad and really liked it. I wound up with my own kindle and like it for reading novels, mysteries, etc. and for the easy adjustment of the fonts.
But I still love my books for research and for the photos, etc.
 
I read every day. I used to have a weighted leather bookmark that held the book open when I was reading it. I loved that bookmark. Now I mostly use whatever is lying around. A Coach bookmark isn't on my wishlist but you never know.

When we were traveling this summer, I brought a few books along but once I finished those, I started reading ebooks. One thing I really love is that you can mark the exact word where you left off. I still prefer reading real books but ebooks are so convenient when traveling or while waiting in the doctor's office.
 
I usually use tissue paper as bookmark if i am unable to look for a bookmark...one time a friend lend me some books and after i returned it, she asked me about all the tissues she keep on seeing inside the book..i told her i didn't feel comfortable dogearring the pages of a book especially if it was borrowed...
