I LOVE annotating in my books! And I think it's fun to find a book in a Little Free Library or thrift store or used book store that has somebody else's annotations.. I dunno.. I think it's cool to see.

The notebook idea is really good!! As someone who is new to annotating I still don't feel comfortable writing in my books, specially because the ones that I want to annotate are usually sci-fi/fantasy hardbacks, so I just use tabs + a notebook where I "explain" more what that tab means. It's a really fun and good way for people like me that are just starting out or might not feel comfortable to write in the book :) I usually write down the page number + my thoughts in the notebook and for the page number I use the same color as the tab, so that when I'm looking through my notes, it's easier for me to find what I want

That circular "annotation station" is amazing and beautiful and I love it. Also, I'm glad you mentioned about how sometimes you run out of tabs on bigger books. I've watched like 10 annotation videos and no one else mentioned that. So now I can make sure that I have enough tabs of my favorite colors for my bigger books.

I get a little nervous about annotating, even when I'm rereading, bc what if I don't like it as much? and end up unhauling it?? But I'm trying to get over that. I have a set system for annotating romances, bc I always mark the same things, but my annotating for all other books differ book to book.💙

Omg i completely share your opinions on tabs! Those weird circular ones are just criminal. Also those pastel tabs are so aesthetic, but i just cant get myself to buy them because they really wont be enough! Although i did see this thing a youtuber did where they assigned two (sometimes even three) similar colours to a theme when making a key so that there would be enough tabs! Maybe that could help?

If you use the transparent sticky you must use permanent marker like sharpie. They have a retractable ultra thin to write and some thin cap colors. It will smudge with everything else. Believe me I’ve tried it all!!

Great video! I only annotate on second + readings of a book, for the reasons you’ve stated. To me, tabbing is only necessary in order to return to a particular page at a future time & it’s not something that I find useful. That said, the tabs do look pretty peeking from between pages, so I understand why many people enjoy doing it.

I just bought those transparent sticky notes. Be careful if you consider buying them. They do work, however since they are made of plastic you cannot write on them with gel pens or any water based ink or marker. It will smear right off. You are only able to write on them with pencil, or oil based inks, like most ball point non gel pens or permanent markers like a sharpie. With a marker you will have to allow for some drying time. They do work but if I had known that ahead of time I probably wouldn’t have bought them.

Thanks for the video. I personally use a very limited amount of colors for tabs, which is: green for ideas, yellow for new words and things to think over or google, blue for wordplays and quotes (author's language), pink for love (obviously) and orange for funny moments. Maybe someone in the comments would find it useful for them, so I shared.
