I do it with ones I love! And when I don’t want to actually write in them, I use tab to mark a page I liked, because they’re easily removed. Personally I don’t see what everyone has against it, the second I open a book I bought it’s mine, I don’t plan on selling it. And ngl, I encourage my friends to annotate my books, because I just love reading their thought. But that’s probably one of the things that falls under the “just me” category.
There’s not much point (unless it’s a book you plan on rereading), since you won’t look at them again most likely. Annotating will kill the resell value, but it’s still fun! I annotated my favorite book with post-it notes & never revisited them, but it’s still nice in the moment and keeps your reading comprehension active if it’s a harder read.

I'd start with tabs and those clear sticky note things you can write on first to see if you like it then you can start highlighting and stuff
Okay so I’m a very adamant “DONT HURT THEM!!” Kind of person, and I HATE annotating in books, but I think it’s okay if you use sticky notes or clear sticky notes, that way it’s not actually ruining the book. I recently discovered the clear ones, and I love them for it!
