From The Cheeky.com, makers of ridiculous and unique items, comes this groan-worthy series of Book “Marks". To help you find your place in your [favorite reading material](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bizarre-bookshelf), choose from Mark Wahlberg, Mark Zuckerberg, Karl Marx, Mark Twain, Mark Anthony and Mark Hamill, all the "Marks" that are printed on these [creative page-keepers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/easymark1). These pieces are available for purchase as a set, and the caricature-style art is even two-sided!

The Book "Marks" are ideal for that particularly nerdy person in your life (if you’re not a pun-loving bookworm yourself). The Cheeky.com describes itself as a company for “those ideas where you might think ‘why has someone never thought about that before - it makes sense but I don’t know if it’s worth pursuing.’” You can never have too many [gag gift options](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roast-host-collection)!
