Mine has something similar to Sinann (they're books!) but also to the left is a star with a line underneath. If I click on that star it shows my bookmarks as it did before.

Must admit it threw me for a while after the update.  :-\

Yes it is there too

To clarify...   The little "books" symbol is called "library" - and brings up lots of things like History, Downloads and BOOKMARKS, and others.   The "star" symbol is called "bookmarks" , and brings up Bookmarks!
NEILSON - Erskine/Bishopton, Renfrewshire and Glasgow
BROWN - Hamilton, Lanarkshire
CAIRNS - Hamilton, Lanarkshire
FINDLAY - Kirriemuir area, Forfarshire/Angus
PORTER - Tobermore, Derry, Ireland

I don't have that star, the only star I have is the one for bookmarking this page.

Go to the "Books" symbol and click to open. Open Bookmarks, then Bookmarking Tools (Spanner Icon) Select the option to add the Bookmarks Menu to the Toolbar. It will now appear to the left of the address bar. Hey, presto! you have your bookmarks on hand.

Excellent, finally, normal service has been resumed.
Thank you :D  :-*
