    🗯 Do you annotate yours books? What tips would you give for annotating/ what do you love most about it? 🖋📚

      I mostly annotate my books when I’m reading them on a digitally format, and something I do is I paste the links of memes that reflect my reactions whatever scenes or dialogues I’m reading.

    I love annotating my books! It just makes me so happy to go back to it later and see all my thoughts. It feels almost like a personal diary in a way since all your thoughts and feelings are written out on the pages.
    I tend to annotate more on rereads and I think that’s because I don’t keep every physical book I read. If It wasn’t an amazing read for me I end up donating the book instead of keeping it. So rereads are when I annotate the most! Unless it’s like Jodie where I KNOW I’m going to love the book then I mark that book up on the first read! Haha

    I love annotating! I don’t do it on every book but there’s some that really enhance the reading experience. I think I’ll do it more on re reads when I know what I want to tag. Otherwise it’s a lot of research before reading on themes and stuff

    I was never taught not to write in books. Now there are books I don’t write in and those are books that don’t belong to me aka library books or borrowed books, I watched another annotated video and she said annotating is like having a conversation with the author and the characters, so that motivates me to annotate more because I get to yell and get angry or happy with the characters. It’s so much fun.

    🖋️Very informative video, Jodie! Thank you! I recently started to annotating my books and it is one of most fun things to do! I'm still to scared to actually write in my books so I just use sticky notes that match the colors of the book, write on those and stick them in!

    I could not write on my books but I love taking notes on a separate notebook. I also use tabs to mark a 50 pages/80 pages milestones throughout the book so that it helps me getting a better view of my reading progress. And I also stick one in a different color to mark the middle of the book. It is so interesting the technics used by the rest of the viewers ☺. Lovely video as always Jodie!

    📖🖋️ I personally do not annotate. I'm one of those people who try to keep my books looking new and I don't want to mess them up. I would annotate school books, but not my personal books.

    I started annotating in books for my reviews on GR and for finding important parts and great quotes easily later. I do it in one colour, matching with the cover. But, sice another Booktuber I follow said, that some of her tabs riped off the ink after a while, and others just fell off, I'm afraid 😅 So I started putting them at the bottom of the pages and using a very soft pencil to mark the important things. For poetry I use only emojis for great, good, meh, and can't relate at all.

    It feels like sacrilege to mark a book or book page! I'm always too frightened to ruin my books this way; I think you have courage! But to put ink onto a book page. Stop. Noooo...I'm having palpitations! I am now fortunate to have eBooks, where you can highlight, take notes and mess around as much as you like, without damaging anything! Now I think I will go away and have a stiff drink and collapse! 🤔🔨

      I can't write or draw in books either, it's something that was ingrained into me in childhood to respect books and not to mark them in any way. I never even wrote in my Open University books. my main reason apart from not wanting to spoil the book is that i may read the book differently and won't want to see my scrawl in it so that is why. I certainly don't annotate the books i read for pleasure.
