forgotten bookmarks...finding some old note, piece of ephemera or bookmark is such a prize.

fine little day shares a lovely swedish children's book with illustrations by kerstin frykstrand.

what claudia wore is an adorable homage to the fashion references in the baby sitter's club books.

the hunting lodge shared a selection of illustrations from the japanese book an anatomical guide to monsters.

infinite summer currently has a dracula read-along going...they're on chapter 11 but have archives available for every other so far...such a great idea! in january they'll be reading roberto bolaño's 2666. (thanks to kyle's friend from ze facebook for the link)
