I love dog-earing pages and will do it forever. It shows that a book is loved!

I dog-ear the fuck out of my books. I have some books where literally every page is dog-eared; in some cases double-dog-eared.

Exactly! I dog-ear the top of a page to mark my place, and the bottom of a page to indicate an awesome passage to come back to. The bottom ones stay folded forever.
Also: please share these every-page marvels; I want to read what you’re reading if it’s that good!

No, no book ears, books are sacred, good reads are to be passed on to the next generation and so on.
