Keep bookmarks available across devices

Google says that when you are signed in to Chrome, new information such as bookmarks is saved in your Google Account and can be used on devices signed in to that account. When you are signed out, bookmarks and other information are saved only on that device. Availability on another device therefore depends on signing in to the relevant account and the selected account settings; do not assume every bookmark is automatically shared everywhere.

Shortcut Action
Ctrl + Shift + O Open the bookmarks manager
Ctrl + Shift + B Show or hide the bookmarks bar
Ctrl + D Bookmark the current page
Alt + Shift + B Focus the bookmarks bar

Google notes that some desktop interactions—such as certain drag, hover, side-panel, and menu behaviors—are not available in the Android tablet interface. Tablet instructions and shortcuts are in Google Chrome Help.

Bookmarks and Reading list are different

Regular bookmarks are saved pages organized in the bookmark list and folders. Chrome’s Reading list is a separate feature for pages saved to read later or offline, found at More > Bookmarks > Reading list. Use the Reading list when your goal is deferred or offline reading rather than organizing a page among regular bookmarks. Google describes it in Chrome Help for Reading list.
