Only if I think it will be five Stars or 4 stars, and I'm right most time...Or maybe I just have that urge to annotate yk? hahaha
yesss i love annotation the book looks so pretty after words
Rarely. I only annotated 3 books
yes. If I have a feeling after the first few pages or chapters that the book is going to be 5 stars then I will annotate it if I'm in the mood
Only the ones I didn't really get into but I lend out books alot and most of the time I Dont get them back. it feels like I donated them.
yes for digital books, but writing on a physical one? I could never💀
Yes, it gives me a different kind of peace!
I used to write all over books, but I'm a Kindle reader now--I've had to get rid of hundreds of books that had become infested with earwigs over ages, and I appreciate my newly uncluttered space. Of course, I've saved the classics and others I might want to reread after the electric grid fails, so I still have quite a number of filled bookcases. So now I highlight and save lots of passages (and hope Amazon can send me all of them), and I try to record my impressions here in Goodreads as reviews. I write reviews for schools, too, which means I have to read more than I'm used to, so my Goodreads reviews are backing up--but I'm determined to get to all of them. Soon!
I love annotating my books. I always find the words that made me pick up the book in the first place and it’s nice to go back and see what I noticed the first time if I read it again
Never! I write the quotes I like on an app call “highlighted”
Yes, I like to return at some of the scenes of the book sometimes
I love tabbing books but I haven’t gotten to highlife and write in them yet, but I think it’s fun!
yes I do and my children does too but not to all books.
Yup, it’s like to pin feelings on pages to me :)
I tab my books, but I'm getting into annotating more regularly. Especially on rereads!
Never - Will sometimes highlight a sentence in my kindle
i dont but oml i want to start js havent gotten around to it ig
No. The idea of writing in a book gives me chills (lol)
@Qamar قمر (Palestinian) school semi-hiatus - oh yh, 100% I felt my skin crawl reading this. sticky tab on books... no! don't you dare **everyone**
No, I don't want to mark up my books because if it is a book I might turn around and sell, I want the next person to have the experience of seeing the book as I first saw it. If it is a kindle version, I will highlight freely, but not a physical book. I have a book journal for that.
I’ve never understood it until recently I started taking pictures of quotes/moments in my books and realized maybe I need to start annotating.
ofc who wouldn't. it's my favorite hobby.
yes !! I love writing small notes and thoughts in my books 🫶🫶
I tried to last year but then was cringy about it especially if I wanted to resell or donate the book. I will now use the highlighting tape or tabs and if the book doesn't become a favorite I can easily remove them with no damage to the books. If I really love the book than a note here or there, but very minimal.
No because I read mostly through audiobooks lol but I kind of think I should. I tend to forget what goes on in them and how the end over time, sometimes I want to remember what made me love a book or hate it for that matter.
Depends on so many factors. Generally, I don’t; I like having the clean pages. Now, if it’s a long book or novella for class, you best believe I’m marking that thing UP. Gotta leave some funny commentary for the next person who rents Capote’s “Other Voices, Other Rooms”.
I highlight and note on my kindle, and I want to annotate my physical books, but I don't want it to look messy.
Yes, but I have started only annotating the book if it's a reread or if I read the first book in the series and liked it so that way if I don't like the book I can sell it
yes!, I've just started this year and I've found that I enjoy the book more
