      @@annaelle_stasia you can definitely do it!! while reading i looked up and wrote down a lot of vocabulary but the story itself isn't hard to understand i think, just takes more time than other books :)

    I have a similar annotation-style and was wondering how you motivate yourself to read when it takes so long to go through even one page of a book.

      Honestly I don’t know… this why I don’t write in books, because it’s seems so energy-taking to read with this way

      @@annaelle_stasia not unless you literally annotate so much. oftentimes a 10hr book will cost me a collateral 1-2 hours in total for annotations since my thing is underlining when i wanna add thoughts, write them and add a tab to come back to it later. it is much faster when you’re not looking to seem aesthetic

      I’ve only done it with books I’ve read before. For me, it’s a way to, in a way, hyper focus on things that happen or connections throughout the book; it can bring you ‘closer’ to the book; in my case, it kinda helps with retaining what I’m reading cause the way I engage with the text. In a recent case, I noticed all the foreshadowing and in taking notes, it felt like I was on the inside track. But, it’s different for everyone.

    Love how this annotation technique is so similar to my own. I admire people who have really artsy annotations and those who have specific organized styles. But this is exactly how I annotate too. Lots of notes, tabs and post-its. Less highlighting, but I want to try adding that in to see if that elevates my reading.

      If you want to annotate and not write in the books try having a separate journal for it or use some stickynotes!

    I want to do this with my books especially my harry potter books because I just love them and want to look back on them. I dont want to ruin it though with my writing or adding tabs, Ive seen see through post it notes and I really want to try them out and making sure that them or the tabs dont eave any residue is a big thing for me especially with my beloved harry potter books.

      The tabs that she had doesn't leave any residue nor damage the book at all :), transparent sticky notes are very good to use if you don't want to damage the book.
