Believe it or not, most people don’t memorize each book they read. Crazy, right? They can’t seem to remember all of the details packed within a hundred-page document. After reading a few dozen of these books every year, the details of individual books start to get a little fuzzy.

This is why many people elect to take notes when they read. They record some more pertinent details of what they’re reading to be remembered later. That way, they don’t have to re-read the entire book just to remember a small detail when needed.

But how do you take notes while reading? What’s the best note-taking format? Is it OK to write your notes directly in the book? The answers to these questions depend on the individual reader. But these are some suggestions to help get you started.
