What are your thoughts about #annotating books as you read them? I've never done #annotations before but recently I've been considering it because it might help me become more engaged with what I'm reading. Sometimes I'll really love a book, but after a while it becomes foggy if that makes sense. I want to be able to more clearly remember what I've read and how I felt about it. Writing in my books is the biggest hindrance though!

CoverToCoverGirl Can‘t bring myself to do it. 3y
SeaToSkyes @CoverToCoverGirl same here! I'm so conflicted about it 3y
LiteraryinLawrence The only time I do it is for the Litsy Markup Postal Book Club books. I absolutely love reading the books and seeing what other Littens have thought! In my own books, though, I don‘t usually annotate. 3y

SeaToSkyes I've been thinking about trying post its and tabs instead of writing in them 3y
BookNAround I‘m not an annotate books kind of person but hen I don‘t break the spines of my books either so I‘m a weirdo. 😉 That said, do what you want in your own books! 3y
