Comment(by godiard):

 That's due to the way Read save the bookmarks.

 Read have a database with the bookmarks, and the book is identified by the
 file hash.

 Then, the bookmarks are not saved as metadata in the book, but in Read
 database. I do not see this as a bug, because do not hurt the user. A
 connected feature could be save the bookmarks as metadata in the journal,
 now we copy the metadata in pendrives too, then should be possible share
 bookmarks between users (But Read don't know how display bookmarks from
 different users right now, then we need analyze all together)
