Bookmarks is the sixth studio album by American singer Five for Fighting.
[4] After his previous album Slice was released in 2009, Ondrasik was uncertain about his future music career.
He decided to record Bookmarks after restoring his passion for music while training for a marathon.
[7] Ondrasik based the songs off of Bookmarks on his life experiences that occurred in the three years after Slice.
[5] Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic said that while Bookmarks sounded like early 2000s adult contemporary, he praised the positive lyrics and believed Bookmarks was the most put together album by Five for Fighting.
