![]() ![]() ![]() Either way, I think the argument is pretty simple: It’s my book and I’ll do what I want. Why not just use a bookmark? Maybe because I don’t have one or because I’m too lazy. The only thing that would stop me from doing this is if I was borrowing the book from a friend. But, hey, if I don’t have any spare paper of any books marks with me, then yeah I’ll fold the page. I’ll admit that I generally don’t fold the pages in my books. I am also annotating my audio copies of Harry Potter as I read them throughout the year and I am really enjoying it because I missed so much when I was younger! I plan on picking up Twilight soonish so I think I might fully annotate the book throughout the whole month and then pick it up every 5-10 years and annotate just so I can see what my thoughts are. I am still easing into writing in my books, but from what I’ve done so far, I am really enjoying it. I would love to be able to read what I was thinking the first time I read Harry Potter or Twilight or Stalking Jack The Ripper!īut, does not writing in books also extend to not getting books signed if you’re given the chance? I don’t know if I could live with that, I love getting my books signed and getting to meet authors. In a way, I do understand this, because what if you end up giving the book away or unhauling it? But, isn’t it sort of cool to be able to access your thoughts from the moment you were reading the words on the page. So, besides photos and a clean aesthetic, I don’t see why anyone would have a problem with tabbing books. I have always tried to keep my books in good condition so tabbing my books is my sort of way to show outwardly, without cracking open the pages, that I have really loved a book.Īlso, come on, tabbing helps out so much whenever I want to go re-read a book or scene and even when writing reviews. I think it shows that I loved my book or at least that I had a lot of thoughts or opinions on the book. I think it actually looks really cool when you see the physical product once a book has been fully tabbed. I really love tabbing my books – physical, ebook or audio. I’m genuinely curious, is it a vain aesthetic thing or do you not tab your ebooks either? I just find it so much easier when I’m writing reviews or want to go back to a scene to re-read. Of all the annotating hate I really don’t understand this one – apart from maybe the aesthetic Bookstagram photos I really don’t understand the hate for tabs. Or, better yet, let me know if you annotate your books! Let me know if you enjoy this type of discussion and want to see more of it. By that I mean the things that we either don’t like to talk about when it comes to reading, or I’ll try to tackle the topics we tend to trash people for, hence today’s topic: Annotating books. In this discussion feature, I am planning on talking about the controversial side of reading. Hey guys, today I’m coming at you with a new Discussions category on my blog which I’ve decided to call Book Vices. ![]()
