Matchy Matchy

Is it weird that I try my best to match my bookmarks to the book I'm reading?  I just started Mockingjay (third in The Hunger Games) and realized that my old Ewok bookmark would be perfect.  Sure, the book isn't about tiny, forest-dwelling bear people, but it is about some good ol' fashioned scrappy underdog rebels fighting The Man (whether The Capitol or The Empire).  When reading a re-telling of The Little Mermaid, I used a Costa Rican bill (colones, if I recall their name) that featured images of sharks.  My go-to bookmark for Shirley Jackson or Ray Bradbury is an old black & white picture I bought years ago from a junk shop.  There's nothing blatantly terrifying about the photo, but there's something about it I find creepy all the same - three girls standing in front of a church and they're so small you can't make out their faces but know they're looking at you all the same.
