E-reader Note Taking Novels & Stories

I do not move toward them yet. Something keeps me in place. Most of the other students have filed out by the time Eli finally stands and collects his materials. He passes my row on his way to the exit. Close enough that I catch the edge of whatever soap he uses underneath the general cold of a January morning. Close enough to see that his copy of Donne has dense careful annotations in his own handwriting filling the margins. Small and precise. The notes of someone who actually read the text before he arrived in this room. He slows.

That was the purpose of the notepad I had under my arm right now? “You’ll eventually run out of space on your notepad,” he said like he’d read my mind. “With the tablet, you won’t have to worry about that. At least for a long while.” He gestured at the other box in his hand. “A keyboard just in case you get tired of writing with the pen.” I was still reeling from the surprise presents. He got me a tablet and a keyboard so we could communicate, and I wouldn’t run out of space. What in the world was going on here?

he asked, lowering the cup. “four,” I answered, trying to bring my mind back into the present and away, far, far away, from his lips. “Good. It’s going to be a long day.” i sat down in the chair by his desk, pulled my notebook out of my briefcase and sat poised with a pen in my hand. “Why do you do that?” he asked. “Do what?” “Take physical notes on paper. You have a million little gadgets for that kind of thing. I know because most of them were purchased with your expense account.”

I noticed right away that there were several different spots bookmarked with small, lilac-colored sticky notes. Thumbing through to see what the bookmarks were for, I found that Fiona’s tiny, tidy handwriting adorned the margins of scatted pages all throughout the book. Some passages in the printed text were also outlined or underlined. These lines had been drawn precisely, no doubt using the little metal ruler I saw in a pencil cup on the desk. Fi’s notes were all about Alexis and how the text in the book related to her specifically. Curious, I returned to the bookshelf and pulled out another book.

"Did you give my notes to Forrest?" Madelyn suddenly remembered. "Oh, sorry, I still have your notebook. Don't worry, I'll give it back to you tomorrow. Do you need it now? You can borrow mine in the meantime." Ethan had neatly organized Madelyn's notes, marking and detailing all the important parts for the final exams. He had even highlighted the most crucial points for her.

After we'd calmed down I asked, "Is that an Android tablet?" "Yeah, it's been really handy during class. There's a cool note taking app that allows me to either type or scribble with my finger. The app website stores my notes. I even get them sent to my laptop while I'm writing papers or doing homework, without having to manually transfer anything." "John told me they even have movies and TV shows on them now." He nodded. "Do you guys use a streaming service?"

CHAPTER NINETY-SEVEN: -- Tyler had the thoughts of just burning the notebook down to ashes after he wrote those things on it. He was planning on just taking a pic of it or just write another one on his phone, but Dave insisted that he must use paper and pen to take notes. He said it’s better that way since paper notes are easy to remember than those written in the computers. He gave it a deep thought before agreeing. He wasn’t wrong, handwritten notes are better than those notes that were typed. Besides, nothing will happen that need to be anxious about, right? It’s not as if anyone will see the notes, right?

There were stick notes and bookmarks every few pages. Aiden shook his head and flipped through the pages before stopping randomly on a stick note and reading it. "What are these for?" Ryder felt her cheeks heat up. "Oh... I just like the writer's style. I like to note down the phrases I like." "Mhm." Aiden flipped through the pages a few more times before closing the book and giving it back to her. "So, how have you been?" Ryder "???" Is he okay? Is he feeling unwell somewhere? Ryder had to fight the urge to check if Aiden was having a fever. "...Fine, I guess."

Just the way he liked it. And beneath the plate, folded neatly: [Eat and rise, no need to disguise— You’re handsome, and that’s no surprise. —Still not sorry, E.] She didn’t stop there. She left notes tucked in the corners of his world: -In the pocket of his coat: [Cold outside? Not with that face. Stay warm, superstar. E.] -Inside the book he was reading: [ Page 47 is boring. But you? Never. E.] -On the mirror in his bathroom:

he says. Right. Of course. I search the sheet of paper I offered to take notes on when we started having these meetings a week ago. Suggestions meander this way and that, nowhere near a neat column. Even though I’m taking notes, other people keep adding things as they see fit. Kieran’s scrawl crowds in around the top, Taner’s at odd angles on the sides, even Ingrid’s flowing script dots the page here and there. Finding anything takes several seconds of concentrated effort—and filtering out a few suggestions I’ve struck off without attempting because I know they’re going to fail. Whoever put Lock him in a room and just start having a meeting needs to have their quill removed.
