MUJI Writable Bookmark

When I read just about anything, but especially nonfiction, I am constantly stopping to look up something mentioned in the passage (maybe a person, a concept, a foreign word) or something else it made me think of/recall. Next thing I know I’m 5 layers deep down a rabbit hole and have abandoned my original reading material.

The only way I can curb this is by having a bookmark I can write on, so that I can take note of whatever I want to do a deeper dive on without doing it in the moment. Until I found this notepad of simple and elegant gridded bookmarks, I used whatever paper I had lying around; this is quite an upgrade! They even fold to create a little tab instead of having the full width of the bookmark stick out. I try to keep some (and a few pens) near all my usual reading spots. So elementary, yet life-changing.
