When I heard that bit in Where'd You Go, Bernadette I scoffed a bit, too.<br /><br />I love being able to drag my finger across the screen. I'll sometimes send little quotes to Evernote from the Kindle page (my Nook is gone) but I should do this more often! Having the highlight feature is definitely something I miss when reading on paper.Trish @ Love, Laughter, Insanityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17225576485797030511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605456781483914021.post-42346862759294884002016-02-28T08:38:22.113-06:002016-02-28T08:38:22.113-06:00That second quote is really lovely, what a nice ex...That second quote is really lovely, what a nice explanation.

You've got me wanting to do that though. Just to see if they mean anything to me now.<br /><br />I used to take notes while reading too, but stopped somewhere along the line for the same reason you mention. I sometimes will still jot down a thought--or highlight a passage--but not as often as I used to.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605456781483914021.post-57120801246343978222016-02-26T12:31:27.501-06:002016-02-26T12:31:27.501-06:00I have a Kindle Paperwhite and love this feature.I have a Kindle Paperwhite and love this feature.Stefaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09081916135477167930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605456781483914021.post-15199168357754938042016-02-25T15:59:55.893-06:002016-02-25T15:59:55.893-06:00I'm so glad I don't do notes any more.

However, if I come across a passage in a print edition that strikes me as worthy of remembering, it is the only time I give myself permission to dog-ear a book. Of course, this only works if I actually keep the book when I finish reading it...Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02160951421693455864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7605456781483914021.post-80301540662391602342016-02-25T10:06:44.641-06:002016-02-25T10:06:44.641-06:00I have a Kindle and find myself highlighting thing...I have a Kindle and find myself highlighting things all the time.
