I mark my favorite passages and specific lines that might speak the most important thoughts/themes of the books. I usually write down the page number, and do a bit of short-hand on the post-it. When I fill one whole post-it, full of page references and notes, I insert the post-it into the pages.<BR/><BR/>After I finish reading the book, I go back and read my notes on the post-its. These scribblings form the outline of my book review, which i write into my moleskin journal. It's a bit of a time-consuming process but I'm more of a close reader who likes to ponder at what I'm reading. This syetem works just perfectly for me.Matthttp://mattviews.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-22013187629888754512009-03-27T22:25:00.000-05:002009-03-27T22:25:00.000-05:00What a teaser Molly!
