Love this idea. So often, I loose the bookmark I'm using, or it drops out of the book I'm reading and I loose my place.

I love the concept of the Book Buckle. I gave up on fancy bookmarks a few years ago and have moved to just pieces of paper. I would love to give a Book Buckle a chance but it seems like it would be too much work to change from one book to the next. Maybe that is just me being lazy.
Thanks for sharing this.

I'm not sure if I would use this or not. One advantage that I can see is that it can't fall out of your book

They are cute and, like you, I could see including them with a gift book. For me, however, I don't think they would be quite as useful. Plus, I read a big portion of my books on my Kindle. No need for a bookmark. Clever idea though.

The Book Buckle is attractive, practical and lovely and I would use it since it is better than a paper bookmark and very special. thanks. saubleb(at)gmail(dot)com

The book buckles look interesting. I would certainly give them a try!

It's definitely a cool product, and I like to collect bookmarks in general -- I'd just like to see a few more simple, monochromatic design to fit my personal taste.

It's a cool neat way to keep your spot in books. I would definitely use it! Brittney House

Sounds like a very inventive idea!

I lose my bookmark all the time. Fun idea. :)

New-fangled ideas always appeal to me. However, I agree this may be a bit "fussy" for me. I'm willing to give it a try, though. Thanks!

Great idea. Totally worth trying!

Great idea! I'd love to try (:

The book buckels are a giant leap from the tissues I use as bookmarks!

I would use this when traveling for sure! I hate taking a book to the beach or on airplanes when you are moving around alot and losing your place in a book

This is a wonderful idea. A wonderful idea for gifts and also a good for traveling. It would be used

I love the idea, but i am pretty sure I would never use them. I would be too worried about losing it (I lose all bookmarks), so it would end up on my nightstand. But, I love the idea for gifts!

I like this idea, my kids could definitely put them to use

Not sure I'd use it. It seems like more work than it needs to be.

They are actually really easy to use and once you put it on the book, mere seconds, you have a Built-on bookmark, just like a journal has. Takes me longer to look for my bookmark that either fell off or got misplaced while reading.. After losing flimsy bookmarks and spending money on these long term, I prefer these any day. Love my Book Buckle

I might use it. It looks secure. It's annoying to lose your place in a book because your marker falls out.

Alright. Second attempt at commenting and Google cooperating! (Hopefully?)

Anyway, I'm sure the bookmarks are fabulous, but I'm more excited to tell you how much I appreciate this blog in a non-stalkery way. :) I love this site; it determines whether or not my piddly student income will be spent on yet another book. I love that you live in my neck of the woods (and feel the same way I do about these darned summers), you correct inaccurate information with your Mormon mentions, and that your reviews are so detailed and good. That takes effort and quite a bit of thought/time. So, thank you!! Also, silly question, but a quirky goal of mine: will you please be my friend on Goodreads? I had to ask, even if it is slightly embarrassing. :) I think you're brilliant! And again, thanks for creating this great go-to venue for all of us. It's something I utilize a lot.

Flattery intended, but it's sincere. :)

Carolyn Rachel -- Sorry, I forgot to say that of course I will be your friend on GR. I'm not very active on there, but just send me a request and I'll approve it!

I think it's useful that they won't fall out and getting to customize them is nice, I wouldn't mind trying it.

My mom is old school and would never pick up a Kindle. However, she would probably like the buckle so as not to lose her book mark.

I love the idea of a buckle that doesn't lose the page on the book you're reading.

im always dropping my book and my bookmark falls out and then i cant find my place. i would lOVE this

Yes, it looks like something I could use for the girls and their books.

I think they are cool. I'd like to try it and compare it to just a normal book mark.

They sound like they would be perfect as a bookmark. yes i would use them

yes i like it, seems very sturdy unlike paper bookmarks

I would use the book buckle to prevent losing my place in the book. I like the idea that you attach it to your book so you will never misplace your bookmark.

I like the concept of giving these as a present when you give someone a book.
Thanks for the contest.
