Always..
I've always used bookmarks. I expect anyone I lend a book to, to do the same. What you do to your own book is up to you I suppose; but don't let me catch you reading one of mine opened facedown, holding your place.
I've finished pocketbooks that you'd be hard pressed to prove they were even opened at all.
Recently I lent a 'must read' (for me anyway) book of mine to a friend. Part way through his read I saw it absolutely destroyed. I kept my lip zipped.
When he was finished reading it, he presented me with a pristine new copy. He also bought himself a new copy, and one more for another friend because he enjoyed it so much.
