Is there a way to export my highlighted bookmarks in iBooks?
yes there is, if you have a mac.

Get iExplorer here

plug in your iOS device and use iExplorer to
look in the books file and drag the following files to your desktop.
iBooks.plist  and iBooksData2.plist

and this app

put the files in the appropriate spot and you can get your highlights
