    Great video! I’m interested in the idea of annotating, but it also kind of intimidates me. Thanks for reminding me that it doesn’t have to be so serious ☺️

    I have just finished annotating my first book, it was chaotic. I def, need to clean up my annotating, but I appreciate that it is a journey. I do this solely for my self, for having fun and for healing my inner child that was forbidden to even do the slightest dog ear in a book.

    Love this video I can’t wait to start doing this for the first time for the only book I have ever bought and love so much (the night circus by morgenstern) I’m almost done with my 3rd read of this book and I am NOT a book Re reader or a book buyer lol 😂 I am a kindle/Libby app and audio book girl all day long

    i have some of the transparent sticky notes, and it turns out they only really work with ballpoint pens and pencils, which was a bit of a bummer because i only really use gel pens to make notes. however, i definitely think that they'd be useful for those that don't want to write in their books and don't want to block the pages with the paper ones!! i guess it depends on the person. great video!!

      oh yeah i've seen people say they smudge if you use gel pens 😕, glad you liked the video!

      Try oil based pens for the transparent sticky notes. They work great!
