Nose in a Book

I'm a 27 year old reader and dreamer working in the publishing industry. I live in Toronto with my cat and some books.

"You can tell a lot about someone from their bookmarks. For the reader, they perform a vital role. They are guardians standing in the way of threads being lost, plot points missed. They are a fixed point, a sliver of paper standing between the gulf of what went before and what is yet to come, like some Dickensian ghost. It is not a job to be given lightly, so we choose our bookmarks wisely."

Do you crack the spines of books you read? Or bend the pages back to mark which page you're on?

I don’t really do either! I have a lot of bookmarks, so I never have a reason to bend the pages.

How the heck are you reading so much? Is that all you do? Have you slipped into some strange dimension where you do not require food or water? (Part II of that question-- is that the dimension my bookmarks seem to always disappear into?)

Honestly, I’m on summer vacation right now and I haven’t managed to find a job yet. And when I was in school, my course load was really light so I had a lot of free time. It’s kind of embarrassing- I clearly need a hobby.
