A shitty small bookmark I got for free at a bookstore years ago with the lame phrase "A book a day keeps reality away!" written on it.
I like it purely because it has a little clip that ensures it won't slip into the book and get my forgetful ass lost.

Each new book of mine I like to use as a bookmark a card from the deck of a GRE vocab set. That way, for each book, I learn at least one new word. It's the only reason why I know the meaning of the word "perfunctory"

If the deck isn't on hand, I use whatever bookmark was given to me by the cashier at the used book store I purchased it from

Sure, they are in pizza language tho so here's a quick little translation:
-"I wish you lots of happiness and to always succeed in concluding your projects for your life.
You're a good boy and I really love you (friendly version of ily that excludes romantic feelings)
From grandma

Meanwhile the other is:
(Name),
You are the best brother what I could have possibly wish for.
Even if we sometimes fight I will always love you; (again, non romantic version)
When we play together I have so much fun I could die.
I love you! (for the third time, friendly version)
Sister (name)

I have a stack of all sorts of small paper thingies I use as bookmarks like plane tickets, concert tickets etc. I leave them in the book once I'm finished. I usually take them out when I sell the book but sometimes I forget it. That's how they end up in your books.
