Bookmarks

This is an icon for a client I'm working with. He sent me a picture of books on a shelf and asked if I could make a Bookmark icon resembling the photo (the blurry mess in the background)

I'm posting this to see what everyone else thinks about this icon. Truthfullly, I'm on the fence and wouldn't normally make a bookmark icon like this, but I feel it came out well, just looks alittle odd lol.
