- Easy Annotating Process for Beginners
Annotating Book Lovers my first booktube video of the year! I’m so excited come a long this short with me and let’s work on annotating book lovers for a memorable read.
It scares me cuz i like my books to remain pristine
Same but I love the way it looks so what I do is write on the sticky tabs and not on the books so later if needed I can just simply peel it off
@@a.m9886 doesn't bits of the page come off along with the sticky note when you peel em off? I want to annotate my books, but I'm scared to do it cuz I know I'll write something, it won't be perfect or I won't like it what I've written latter, I'll be irritated and mad at myself that I've permanently ruined the book, and I'll never regard that book with as much fondness as I would've if I hadn't annotated them and the pages would've remained clean, simply because my bitter feelings are now associated with the book as well.
@@karabikalita9777
Yes that’s why I get clear sticky notes.. sticky notes don’t ruin books
@@karabikalita9777i use transparent ones that aren’t as sticky but still stay on
thats why I write on sticky notes when I take actual plot line notes it doesnt tear the pages but it also depends on what kind of sticky notes you get lol
I could never lmao I write the silliest things in my annotations. stuff like “KISSKISSKISS” or “UNHINGED?!”
Put it in your book! When you look back through the pages and you come across “unhinged” youll go back to read what made you think it in the first place and reminisce 😄😂
It's your book! Do it!
Tbh I need to start doing this because right now I’m just writing in my books with a pen and it’s getting really messy
Does anyone loveeee reading the first page like the look of it, idk it’s so weird but pls I hope I’m not the only one😂
I do 🥰
Looks fun and enjoyable! Will surely implement this.
I hope you enjoy it! ☺️
I need to learn how to annotate books ughhh
I always wonder what are those different colors dangling at the side of the books? Can you show me?
Could you maybe make some annotate with me videos???
Absolutely! I also just uploaded my process for annotating if you wanna kind of see a way of doing it 🙂 th-cam.com/video/-HC1N0cySuo/w-d-xo.html

Can u suggest tips for getting over writing in books cuz im rlly scared to do it
I suggest using sticky notes in your books, if you are not entirely committed to writing in them.
Or, if you are ready to start writing in them, I suggest writing in pencil, because pencil can always be erased ☺️
@Lifewithlattes thank you so much! This is great advice. I personally don't think I'm ready to write in books yet but I have started highlighting passages that make me laugh, cry or get really angry!
wanna do it so bad but like the one i wanna do is sold out where i live and my only copy and i cant mess that up
you dont have to do it this way you can always make a reading journal and keep track that way :)
@@Lyfewithsamantha oh thats super smart ty!
I use sticky notes to write on when I annotate so then I don’t have to write directly into the book you can even get clear sticky notes from some places
I'm buying the same tabs to annotate a book I loved. It's my first time tabbing a book and I'm afraid that the tabs will leave residue or tear the page if I decide later that I would like to remove them. Have you ever had any of this after removing them after years of them being on a page?
In my experience I never had this issue the residue is pretty light and when I have removed them from a page it hasn’t left any residue behind either. My copy of secret garden has been tabbed for 6 years and it’s been ok andni can easily remove the tabs as I’ve re read the book over the years ☺️ I hope this helps 😅
I also want to note I got my tabs from Amazon and I consistently have used them over the years and I’ve had the best experience with them
@@Lyfewithsamantha Thank you so much! I'm glad I don't have to worry too much about damaging my books and can just have fun with it. Thank you for your help!!
@@aimvivz happy reading friend! ☺️ I’m glad I could be of help 😁
Let's suppose someone wrote the perfect story for you, how would it look like?
Well, if it’s a personalized story for me 🤔 I would love a fantasy Almost like lord, of the rings, eragon, and Harry Potter mixed Something that’s very character and story driven with not too many plot twists because I feel like lately stories are relying too much on plot twists, a hint of romance that is important to the story, but is not what is heavily driving the story I want the adventure and the mission to be the most important part ☺️ that’s what I would enjoy been looking for books like that 😅
@@Lyfewithsamantha So, an epic journey in which romance still plays an important role?
Do you think it should have a simple storyline?
where do you get the see through ruler type thing which the tabs were sticked on?
I think those are the highlighter sticky tabs on Amazon
They come with the tabs
I had a question...how long do sticky tabs last for if kept unused ?
Honestly I don’t think they go bad but I think it depends on how you store them but I’ve never had sticky tabs go bad on me unused
@@Lyfewithsamantha Thank you so much for replying🤩... how do you advise I should store the sticky tabs
@@a.m9886 well I would honestly leave them in the packaging it comes in if you’re not using them if not I always keep my unused ones in my pencil case ☺️
Okay thank you so much ❤❤
i have the exact same tabssss
Aren’t they awesome! I repurchase them all the time 😃
Where can I get these exact tabs?
bro i dont have the courage to write in booksssss 😅😅😅😅 i really want to annotate but its scary 😢😢
You can always keep a separate notebook for annotations ☺️ I did that for years
Where can I purchase those.
Amazon
Why do people do this? To reread? To glance and skim the good parts later? Or just to study during the first reading
People have different reasons for why they annotate you listed a few good ones. Me personally it depends on what people are reading some use it to keep track of plot lines or complex characters or places. Truly it’s dependent on the reader.
@@Lyfewithsamantha thank you
@@cathy2142 np! ☺️
How would you tab the plot tho ? Someone explain lol
It really depends on your preference I like to tab the plot by breaking down character development and shocking moments maybe your favorite quotes it’s all about how you want to break it down
What happens if you ran out of tabs for a category?
These packs usually come with several of the same colors so I don’t usually run out but if I do, I’ll just assign a different color to continue it ☺️
Where can I get these tabs?
They are on Amazon ☺️ and they come with a lot
Where to buy these tabs
I got them on amazon it comes
with several packs :)
What does plot mean?
@@NaenaeVlogs24 plot is what the story is about ☺️
@@Lyfewithsamantha can you give me an example?
How you're so damn rich?
... owning a paperback makes you rich?
Book lover here .. stupid question...why would you do annotations in a book you read where characters have sad moments or happy or etc ...I am super curious :)
Super valid question! ☺️ I actually started annotating for different reasons depending on the book it helps me keep track of the plot it also helps me keep track of world building if necessary. The main reason I annotate any book is just to keep share my thoughts on the book I’m reading if it’s something heartbreaking I write down what I was feeling about it or even try to connect it with any plot progression. I also tend to mark down any memorable quotes that really resonated with me. There are so many reason and ways to annotate everyone has their own personal reasons but this is just mine. Sorry super long lol but I hope this answered your question 😅🫶🏻
wtf r u annotating in that..
Plot points and quotes that stood out to me
For me personally, treating my books as a English homework task takes the fun out of reading. I prefer to treat it like a fun story rather than an analytical process. But that’s just me!
@@susanmaynay8453 i’m gonna sound like such a pretentious asshole, but if i’m reading classics i’ll annotate them to actually understand what’s happening but if i’m reading a Y/A, romance or any other fiction that’s not classic lit i’m not gonna be tabbing it
@@deepfried8758 no not at all lol I’m the same way if I’m reading a story with a huge plot I definitely annotate and tan certain things but I was buddy reading this book so I annotated certain things to be able to have discussions with my friends but trust me I don’t annotate every basic romance novel I read I’m not one to really annotate Emily Henry novels either their all pretty fluffy reads but I’m right there with you on that 😊
@@susanmaynay8453 yeah definitely I don’t annotate every book because that’s just too much 😅 I do it to big plot lines in order to keep up but this was a buddy read so I annotated it because of that
