Magnetic Bookmarks: A Bookworm Must-Have

Updated: Jul 11

A receipt, a sticky-note, a pen, or even a boarding pass: If you are a true tea sipping bookworm, you may have used one or more of these things as a bookmark. I know I have used my fair share of odd objects to mark my place in my latest read, one time I found a sanitary napkin in my book...unused of course. I mean, it's important that I mark where I left off reading but not that important! I call myself a serial reader, meaning I read several books at once, so I like to mark, not just the page, but also the line that I stopped reading on. This is where magnetic bookmarks come in handy!


In this article, I will share 3 reasons why I think magnetic bookmarks are the best and I will also share a couple of magnetic books that I use and like. If you have not already done so, make sure you that you subscribe to Tea End. to keep up with all the tea sipping bookworm content that I post daily!

Have you ever used a flower as a bookmark?

Don't get me wrong, I collect bookmarks of all sorts. It's really hard to resist a super cute bookmark but I tend to gravitate towards the magnetic bookmarks and here are three reasons why:


#1: Secure Placement: Magnetic bookmarks securely grip the pages of a book without slipping or falling out. Unlike traditional bookmarks that can easily slip or be dislodged, magnetic bookmarks stay firmly in place due to their magnetic closure. So, when I mark the page and the line where I stopped reading, I'm assured that the bookmark remains exactly where I let it, even if the book is jostled or moved.


#2: Preserves Book Condition: Traditional bookmarks can sometimes bend or crease pages over time, especially if they're made of thicker materials. Magnetic bookmarks, however, typically consist of thin, flexible material with a magnetic strip that clips together. This design minimizes the risk of damaging pages, keeping my books in better condition over the long term. And we bookworms know how we are about our books and maintaining their integrity!


#3: Ease of Use: Magnetic bookmarks are easy to use and convenient. They can be quickly placed and removed from the page without any hassle. The magnetic closure makes it simple to mark your place in a book and return to it later, without the need to search for where you left off or adjust the bookmark each time you open the book. Like I mentioned before, I don't just use the bookmark to mark the page, but also the line that I stopped reading on. This makes going back to where I left off reading so much quicker.


Here are a couple of magnetic bookmarks that I use and like:



Overall, magnetic bookmarks provide a practical and reliable way to mark pages in books, offering security, preservation of book condition, and ease of use compared to traditional alternatives. I love them!
