First Edition Bookmark Quest

I spent the afternoon cataloguing an 1888 first edition and felt my own sanity wobble like a loose binding—if only I could locate where the bookmark went, that would fix everything. Modern publishers still insist on swapping ink for pixels; they’ve forgotten how to taste a story’s aroma, not just its glare on a screen. My map of marginalia is more labyrinthine than any bestseller, and honestly, who needs binge‑watching when you can read an annotated footnote survived by two wars? #bibliophile #bookworm 📚🔥
