First to recommend

Thumbthing is a brilliant little invention for bibliophiles and casual readers alike. The colorful molded plastic piece fits on your thumb and holds the book open making one-handed reading much more satisfying. Available with 4 different thumb hole sizes, the Thumbthing doubles as a bookmark when not in use.
$2.95 at ABC Stuff. (via Cool Tools)
