I have the Kindle app on my iPad and there’s an icon that brings up the list of highlights and any notes I’ve written. Tapping them takes me to the section in the book so I can get right back into the author’s flow. It works easily as I just keep my ipad at my desk.

Your spam filter just has better judgment than you do. 🙂

It’s not caving! Reading is reading. And I take your point, but you’re not giving up print, you’re just broadening your reading horizons. I would have missed out on so many things if I stuck only to one medium.

So how do you deal with your highlights when reviewing? Do you export them to email? That’s what I do, but I find it much harder to deal with than being able to flip through my book/book darts.

Well, I’m sorry about MI but envious you get to be near Emily, she’s the bees knees.

I love the quotes! Sorry it took so long for me to reply, but this got caught in my spam filter which seems to be hyper-vigilant against legit commenters but freely lets through people who would love to help me with my SEO scores- for a fee, of course!

The frown is because, having been a librarian for most of my career, I’ve been a staunch advocate of print. I feel like I’ve caved, but my God, highlighting makes life so easy for reviewing and travel! Otherwise, I’m going through post-it flags like water. I also love the dictionary and Wikipedia- allowing me to learn words and other details from each book.

I do know Emily! We met at BEA in Chicago. We’ve been in touch and may even start a book club once I’m settled. Which would be wonderful. It’s not the city, it’s mostly the weather. The majority of my adult life has been spent in snow, ice, and freezing temps and I hate it. But I’ll adapt and then when Jed retires, we’ll come back!

Thank you so much for this kind comment! I’m sorry it took me so long to reply, but it didn’t show up until today. Reading is all that stands between me and being a raging lunatic these days. It does feel like it’s too much to take sometimes. Thank you, as well, for supporting my blog- it means so much to me to have readers like you.

Thank you so much for supporting my blog! We will get back to Portland!

You’re hilarious. You would read more if you weren’t so busy raising children, starting a podcast, and building a bookish empire!
