Poll
Should I start annotating my books? I’ve always been too scared to do it in the past evacuees I don’t want to mess them up or whatever. But I’ve been using tabs and sticky notes lately. Should I use pen as well? Or do something else?
ANNOTATE
Do whatever you want
You should only use tabs and sticky notes but no pen
Don’t do anything to your books
Honestly, I dont like to just in case I decide to donate them, and bc i have terrible handwriting!

For poll creator
I annotate in pencil in case I want to erase it

i personally love annotating my books!!!my opinion would be to start with a book you like less, or just practice highlighting and underling at weird angles because sometimes annotating can get to that. if you decide to annotate, make sure to let the highlighter and pen dry so it doesnt smudge, and then once u get the hang of tabbing and annotating books, it becomes second nature! also tip is to make a tab key in the front of your book so you dont get lost at which tab is which (if you are tabbing)
if you need inspiration you can check out the pics in my profile, there are some annotations and keys if u want!!
(if u dont want to permanently mark your books, there are always clear sticky notes on amazon you can buy that also work well, but they smudge sometimes!)

The only issue with pen is it might bleed through so maybe try on a book you don’t rlly care abt that much before and see how it goes

Thank youuuu!!! You will def be my go to person for this!!!
What I do is I highlight quotes or things I like, and if I write anything, it’s in pencil, that way I don’t mess it up. I recommend getting non bleed highlighters, otherwise it’ll mess up the whole book
I think you should do whatever you’d like!!! Me personally I wouldn’t bc I KNOW I’d make a mistake and ruin it 😭
