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?

sunshine.jamesonsversion{LETS GO OILERS}semi ia 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!)


Camilla (wish I were a half-blood)💙💫🤍 OKAYYY thank you so much Sunshine, that’s very helpful!!!


insert_username2488 IVE ALWAYS WANTED TO ANNOTATE BUT TOO SCARED


♥️✨Hannah✨♥️ 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


Camilla (wish I were a half-blood)💙💫🤍 Okay, thank you all so much for your tips/advice!!! I think I’ll annotate some books that I’m really excited to read or know that I already love!!! But I won’t annotate all of them.

@Olivia, sameeee

@Hannah, okay, sounds good!! I’ll test one out first!!

Thank youuuu!!! You will def be my go to person for this!!!


Liliana (homesick for heaven) 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


Emma T   ❧  Throne Warden (DaughterOfAslan2362) I wish I had the nerve to annotate my books.
