Oh and the older I get, the more useful I find bookmarks as opposed to trying to remember where I was in a book.
True. Just look at different printings of say the Bible next time you are in a church. The pew Bible may have a book starting on one page and the copy you bought at the store may have it starting on another entirely. It's down to the size and choice of font that the publisher used. That's probably why churches provide a standard hymnal as well. Otherwise everyone might be singing a different hymn. lol. And I imagine different publishers in general for mass market books may use different sizes and thicknesses of paper too which would also have an effect on page #'s.
