I definitely come down on the side of the bookmark, but it's not always a good thing. Take my copy of Queen of the Damned. My all-time favorite book. I started bookmarking my favorite parts so I could easily find them when I want to read them again. Uh-hem, OK, so not so easy to find . . . The shoelace is to hold the book together, because I've broken the spine and chunks of it fall out.
In college my roommate asked me why I didn't just dog ear the pages.
"Because I didn't want to damage the book."
