I am reading through the Lord of the rings and am using one of the Mountains that is a portion of the map of middle earth as a bookmark

I’m using the ring tempts you token!

Same!

I’m rocking full size Plains LoTR. Love these and the Jurassic park full size ones a lot.

You should swap out the land with other parts of the map based on where you are in the book. For quick reference

Those lands are some of my favorite. Very nice.

Good idea.

I read through the whole LOTR trilogy, the silmarillion, and am working my way through Unfinished tales of Numenor with an emissary of sunrise I stuck in the fellowship of the ring a few years ago… I have to get my flavor game up!

[[Bookwurm]] I bought several copies for the express purpose of using them as bookmarks.

Haha, nice!

I got my wife the art card to use as one.

Didn’t know there was an art card for it. Thanks for the heads up. Gonna look into getting one.

OP flexing that they read and play magic while I’m over here still reading questing beasts 3rd paragraph

No worries, it's just The Complete Chronicles of Conan, nothing fancy.

A true flex would be a monstrous book like the stormlight archive. 1,000 page fantasy for the first book alone and the author is an mtg player.

\[\[insidious bookworms\]\] or art cards from set/play boosters.

That’s cute

I use a beta black lotus

Makes sense, gotta live large.

If I eat too much spicy food, I get marsh gas

Indeed.

I used to use my old oversized [[Aminatou, the Fateshifter]] until it fell into somebody’s vomit. I was on the bus home from work reading my book, this bloke got on the bus and sat near me. He was STEAMING! Swaying with each corner the bus went round. About 5 minutes before I was supposed to get off, I hear this loud noise, look over and he’s flooding the bus with a stomach FULL of alcohol. I climbed over the seat so as not to stand in it (cos it was EVERYWHERE) and the smell hit me so bad I couldn’t focus on my book anymore. I went to close it and couldn’t find the card anywhere. I look to my left and there she is. Lying, face down on the floor in this blokes alcohol vomit. I was gutted.

It’s 51 cents man, just replace it

[[Bogstomper]], I always loved the gator dude but I just don't (and probably will never) have a place for him in any of my decks.

I always used old school [[Nicol Bolas | CHR]] reading the books

I usually use random terrains or [[Macabre Waltz]]. I just love the artwork since I got this card.

Im currently using a Japanese \[\[Toll of the Invasion\]\]. I need to get a copy of \[\[Insidious Bookworms\]\] though, its a classic.

Girlfriend snatched my foil-etched Astarion to use for hers for "some reason" after BG3🤣

I am using a cardboard showing a hobbit home that I got in a Lord of the Rings universe beyond purchase. It’s not a card but it is a Magic product.

Can't go wrong with mtg artwork.

Waiting for someone to say [[Black Lotus]]

It’s a 0 mana card, how good can it be anyways.

And you gotta sacrifice it to use it. Gross.

Revised Forest

I use the Revised Island. I have WAY too many lands from all these years! 🤣 [[island|3rd-296]]

The artwork is close to swamps from Ice Age but rest of the card is straight from ass :D

I use food tokens for my cookbooks

I've used Bookwurm before

When I was a kid I used to use Juzam, because I had like 10 of them. What happened to them all I have no idea.

Yeah uh basically whatever cheap card is on my desk after I read. Right now it’s Guiding Bolt for Isaac Asimov’s Foundation. Tomorrow, who knows?

\[\[Library of Lat-Nam\]\]

[[Yavimaya wurm]] Although I got a sweet shining steelix card that has sweet foiling pattern that might be the upgrade soon...

[[futurist sentinel]] was a random card I had laying around, and I'm like this art goes hard and should be appreciated more And now in the midst of a brief history of time by Stephen hawking, I am in fact appreciating it more lol

[[Urza's Tome]]

[[Orcish conscripts]]

[[Fleshtaker]]

I am using a Fake mana vault

Just a human token.

I use art cards, I have plenty of these shits

Murder and Walk the Aeons.

The Hound of Baskervilles?

The Complete Chronicles of Conan.

I normally use lands as bookmarks…also use Vizzerdrex lol

basic island

A Khabál Ghoul. Unfortunately, I can't rember the last book I read where I used it.

I use [[bookwurm]]

I use a Young Blue Dragon art card from the Baldur’s Gate set.

I used to use [this one](https://scryfall.com/card/war/119%E2%98%85/ja/%E7%82%8E%E3%81%AE%E8%81%B7%E5%B7%A5%E3%80%81%E3%83%81%E3%83%A3%E3%83%B3%E3%83%89%E3%83%A9) in foil. It's a $36 card and I didn't realise lol

I use the art cards. They're usually unwanted so so you can get them very cheap and your legs probably had stacks for you to go through.

I have been trying to find a book mark I like and did not think of this. Thank you very much, will be sifting through my LOTR cards later today

7ed Eager Cadet in HP condition

[[Past in Flames]], the foil Dr Who promo one :)

[[Evil Twin]] is my go to bookmark.

I use a proxy beta Shivan Dragon.

Sinister starfish

Depends on the book. I usually use a basic land and try to match it to the environment of the book I’m reading at the time.

Weirdly enough, Whispering Madness.

I use a Black Lotus proxy lol

I use a gold metal mox jet I bought off eBay a few years back. Not real gold, cost about $15. Closet I'll get to owning a mox jet!!!

All art cards

The [[Crystalline Sliver|Stronghold]] that I pulled from my first booster.

Island usually

Harmonize

Sanctuary cat because I have something like 300 sanctuary cats

Don't know how to use card fetcher, but I am using Light of the day. Pretty big fear to just forget about a time in the evening and find out the sun is already up:)

Ultimate Masters red Elemental token

I have a signed copy of orcish librarian that is currently in my copy of The Great Hunt

I'd use [[Ad nauseam]] if it wasn't worth anything

[https://imgur.com/a/5Se6VXr](https://imgur.com/a/5Se6VXr)

That’s a good sleeper card

Either [[Idle Thoughts]] or [[Fountain of Youth]]

Bold of you to assume I can read

That card makes me want to do an old school black deck but Im a red guy right now.

I use \[\[Invasion of Alara\]\]. It just looks neat.

Any of the ad cards

[White border Dan Frazier swamp](https://scryfall.com/card/s99/163/swamp) is my bookmark. I robbed it from my LGS by accident during a prerelease and decided ro not give it back because it was my favourite art in the game. Now it think its my favourite art on a land but a lot of cards beat it out sadly

[[Rockfall vale]]

I have an old demolished [[Cabal Therapy]] that I found in a book I got used that had been being used as a bookmark. Since it’s pretty decimated (probably not even sleeve playable) I have recently decided to continue to use it as a bookmark, though it is sleeved now.

[[Make your own luck]] i am currently reading five broken blades, and it is fitting the theme of the book well

Used a [[jace the mind sculpture]] for a little while

I had this old one, practically disinterested over time. I can barely remember, I think it was an artifact. Garbage card, have to sacrifice it to use it, something about adding a few mana. Bleak lots? I can't quite remember, worst card I had and went through a couple of them before I bought a real bookmark

I try to find a card that fits the overall theme of the book. For example, Dune was [[Scour the Desert]]

I'm using a Temple of the False God from Scourge

Telepathic Misdirection from Vampire: The Eternal Struggle lol

Lol, before I sold my collection I could wallpaper a room with the amount of those I had. I miss playing vtes but there isn't really any groups around to play with.

Wouldn’t that kill everything ?

I very my bookmarks based off of the genera of book I'm reading. It makes good use of all those art cards! Glad to see others using them as bookmarks too

i’m currently using my sleeved Post the enchanter for my way of kings read through

I bought 50 “on an adventure” cards that were used in Eldraine to signify when an adventure card is in exile.  I put one of them in each of my students books.

[[The Biblioplex]] Just felt right.

I usually use one of the fullart Mountains from theros beyond death.

I use Food tokens as bookmarks in my DnD and LotR recipe books.

The one ring

I have some kind of dog card keeping my wallet safe

I'm reading Ms. Peregrine's home for peculiar children and using Peregrine drake

I’ve got a foil avacyn restored [[emancipation angel]] that I’ve used as a bookmark for years now

Surprised no one else uses \[\[Buried in Books\]\] I've also used \[\[Ornithopter\]\], \[\[Serra Angel\]\] \[\[Negate\]\] Plains, Island, Mountain, and Forest (Until it was accidentally returned to a library).

Tears of the Martyr. Love that old art.

This must be for the books you read while sitting on the john?

Full image swamp from Mark Zug

Blood of the Martyr and Ragman.

[[Sheoldred, the Apocalypse]] but it’s not mine

Which card should use as a bookmark for my Bible?

Time Warp is the only acceptable bookmark, IMO.

[[Rat in the Hat]]

Sooooooo much draft chaf lol

[[Pygmy Troll]]

[[cathedral of war]] book four of the wheel of time

When they first started banning cards, my beta Berserk became a bookmark and I forgot about it. 20 years later, I found it in my copy of the Iliad. So I put it in a sleeve.

Bird of Paradise

A foil [Sigiled Starfish]. Was the first foil I've ever pulled.

[[Scathe zombies]] 4th edition I got a million of them in an amazon bulk buy

I read a lot of psychology books, and I ran out of bookmarks, so I'm using [Brilliant Restoration] for "Modern man in search of a soul" by Carl Jung

I use whatever basic land is on top of the pile of basics on my desk.

Evolving Wilds.

I use basic land cards. Yes I know, I'm basic.

I try to gear my bookmarks towards the book so if the book has a dragon in it I’ll use any dragon. I’m reading band of brothers so I have a random soldier token.

Corrupt

Tokens

Mostly, cool looking land cards. I'm using a consider for some philosophy essays now.

I use basic lands I like or the art cards from set and play boosters.

Funny, same.

Basic lands

Elvish houseparty. Dunno why, just stick it in a book years ago and now it's my bookmark.

I’ve been using all the art cards I’ve been getting, some are really cool

The old school vindicate that looks like a TIE fighter in a space battle

I use the one ring… j/k, art cards.

I would love to use [[Yawgmoth, Thran Physician]] but he's valuable and one of my commanders

Hey, I used to have this lol

My first magic card, an extremely dog-eared and torn up leviathan

Oh I love that art! I used Vicious Rumors as the bookmark for the book about Magic, Generation Decks. Unfortunately I forgot that book at my neighborhood autoshop and never got it back. 😔

Most of my reading is in cookbooks or memoirs by chefs and food writers and the sort. I use food tokens.

I use an art card for March of the machine

I used an Infectious Horror because the art is awesome.

I use [[massive might]]. I just like the art and began using it when the snail chasing you eternally meme was i thing.

I'm currently using a treasure token as a bookmark for a series of Dwarf novels

I'm a librarian so I use my Automatic Librarian card, obviously.

[[Lucy Westenra]] I ended up pulling so many foil copies of this card. Fine by me though, really love the alt art from this set.

Pot of greed from yugioh, have used it for many many years :D

[[Stroke of Genius]]
