When you run out of space to write your notes, you can always add typed notes to any annotation. That saves you switching to a notebook to continue your handwritten note somewhere else.

🧘🏻‍♀️ I don’t need a Kobo Libra Colour. I don’t need a Kobo Libra Colour. I don’t need a Kobo Libra Colour. 🧘🏻‍♀️😂 Just cause I already have a Kindle and a Fire tablet for graphic books and color highlights. Can’t wait for the Notion video and thank you so much for this one ❤

[@Natalie-ng5wt]

I have ADHD, which means I unintentionally speed-read, miss half the text, and immediately forget the plot after I've finished the book (if I even got through it in the first place). I also can't bear to write in my physical copies of books. I feel like this will be a game changer, forcing me to engage with the text more and changing what the reading experience is like for me. I can't wait to get this e-reader!

[@eviecore]

I have the same problem hehe

[@joannievh2071]

I actually prefer to annotate digitally! I don't feel like I'm "ruining" the book or anything (yup, I'm one of those... 🙄) I prefer to note in my journal things that have left a strong impression and I actually note the quotes that are inspiring in a book of its own! 😂 I do love your system! So far, still a purist: only highlight in yellow... But I did buy those transparent post it! I'm getting there!!! 🤦‍♀️

[@PlantBasedBride]

Haha I love this! Hey, if it works for you it works 😂 and our systems can change over time and that’s cool, too ❤️

[@justcallmeivonne]

Thank you so much for sharing your process. I’m not big on annotations unless I’m reading to learn but just a couple of things for kindle users that weren’t mentioned. You can create notes (almost like a post it) when you highlight something select a portion of it and an icon will pop up on a pen and a square paper, click on that and you can type in a note. Second, if you use the kindle app (not the actual kindle device) you can highlight in different colors so when I’m reading something for learning (like a nonfiction book), I’ll read it on my iPad or phone so that i can use different highlight colors. Not as streamlined as with the Kobo it i good work around for people who are really wanting to highlight in different colors but doesn’t want to purchase another device. Thanks again for the great video!

[@PlantBasedBride]

Thank you for these tips! I showed the kindle app in the video but didn’t demonstrate the notes feature because honestly I was never inclined to use it! But it’s great to point it out because it might be perfect for some readers ❤️

[@andreluissoriano]

This is perfect. I just bought literally today my Kobo Libra Colour!

[@PlantBasedBride]

Oh how exciting!! I hope this video helped you learn some of the basics for using it to its full potential 🥰

[@mlnyf1922]

Also it’s really helpful for those who like nonfiction workbooks ‘cause not even on the kindle scribe we’re able to write literally ON the book page (just on PDF but it’s never the same as buying or downloading your own books as an ebook format) and that’s a game changer! I’m glad there’s people like you that really enjoy writing on the pages!

[@ilseortega1102]

This was great! Thank you! I am looking forward to the "Annotating Audiobooks" 🎧😊

[@TiffanyLouann]

I use a Kindle Oasis to read my ebooks but i’m glad to see that companies are starting to make color e-ink! One thing that I thought was really cool is about the bookmarking in ebooks. I have only been using the bookmark feature to mark where I left off, like if I’m reading before bed and i’m getting too tired to keep going them I add the bookmark so I don’t lose my page, but watching this video, I would have never thought to use it in a different way, in addition to marking where I left off… using it to bookmark where your annotations are. That is a brilliant idea that I don’t know why I haven’t thought of that! That is literally soooo cool! Thank you for sharing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@craigmarley5926]

You read 150 books a year?!! Unbelievable! Since your annotating makes book reading 2-3x as long, it is like a normal person reading 300+ a year. Your annotation videos are the most comprehensive I've found on KZbin. Great job. Congrats!

[@PlantBasedBride]

Well, to be fair, I don’t annotate every book heavily and I don’t annotate all parts of a book equally, either! Sometimes I read a few chapters with nary a highlight in sight, and then read one chapter highlighting almost every word and adding a bunch of extra notes 😂 I also love audiobooks, so I’m able to listen while I do chores and work!

[@SweetHoneyBee]

Thank you so much for your tips! I recently started annotating my books because of you. I absolutely fell in love with it.

[@PlantBasedBride]

[@nunun672]

I first watched your video about how to annotate physical books and it felt too much for me, but then I picked up to read a book and your tips made so much sense. That video has truly changed the way I engage with a book. Happy to see an ebook version 😊

[@PlantBasedBride]

[@chaterbox1987]

This video is perfect timing. My daughter recently took over my tablet. My husband offered to get me a Kobo Color since hes heard so many good things about it. I was very hesitant on it. This helped me understand how to use it's potential.

[@PlantBasedBride]

Oh awesome, that is perfect timing! I’m happy to help ☺️ there are even more awesome features I didn’t mention in this video, but I tried to give a good overview ❤️

[@jerrywayneandersonjr5507]

THANK YOU! There are so many reviews and such out there for the Libra Colour and they all seem to focus mostly on colour. But what I wanted to hear more about was annotating. Being able to no just highlight but adding emphasis is a HUGE thing to me. Almost more than the addition of color. So your tips and video was very helpful, and I think I will watch again once I get my Libra Colour! I would be interested in your thoughts of when, 5 years down the road, and I get a new Kobo device, can the annotations be moved to the new device. Or do I treat my old device as a book - the annotations stay with the device. Again, thank you!

[@HolographicCoaching]

What a great question!!!

[@cyanidesally1]

Thank you for sharing your process. I have occasionally highlighted a quote in my Kindle App but love the idea of making more meaningful notes and quotes so I’m going to give it a go. Really thoughtful and interesting video. ❤

[@PlantBasedBride]

Thank you ☺️ I’m so glad the video was interesting and helpful! ❤️

[@KathrynMcClatchy-UtNC]

I have a Kindle Paperwhite. I go through and highlight during the first read, like you do. Paperwhite is black and white, so no color options. There are note options though when you highlight something. However, once I've read what I need to read, I can pull up the Kindle desktop app or the Kindle mobile app on my phone to change colors and add more/better notes. Also, from these apps, I can copy and past information over to my Notion database. I may use all or some of these options, depending on what I'm reading and why. Thanks again for a useful video, Elizabeth. Now I'm itching for an upgrade with a stylus and colors.

[@itszoeblossom7685]

Could you share more about your notion database system? I use apple notes to store my reviews atm but am looking for a better system x

[@kathrynmcclatchy]

​@itszoeblossom7685 I just keep a database of book notes in Notion so the notes are searchable. I also use keyword tags and list format, author, pub date, date read, tl;dr one sentence summary, etc, so I can filter on any of those properties.

[@heyhihelloheather]

I’ve rewatched this a few times since I got my Kobo Libra Colour and it’s helped my annotating so much! ❤

[@PlantBasedBride]

Oh that’s awesome! I’m so glad 🥰

[@anickglobensky-bromow9820]

oh myyy, I've been using bookmarks all wrong! I use them, you know, as a bookmark to mark where I'm at while I read, like I would a physical bookmark... This is adding a whole new layer!

[@booksandbags]

I love my Kindle Scribe, but I broke down and bought a Libra for my book cub reads because of the color annotating and ability to write on the books. I’m so excited to put your tips into practice.

[@amdza]

I just bought a new kindle last year!!! Oh why didn't I wait 😭I hate annotating on the kindle, especially for non-kindle store books. I kinda switched to using the ipad and apple pencil, but it's certainly not as easy on the eyes, and you need a pdf to directly write on the document.

[@ThionsMight]

Very, very good video! I find it hard to do good annotations and your tipps and thoughts were very helpful! I landed in a rabbit hole about e-readers and got my self a kobo libra colour, so your tipps are even more helpful 😊

[@ThionsMight]

@@PlantBasedBride To be honest I had my problems at first and i took some time to get used to it (I had another e-reader already) but I fell in love with it 🥰 I guess the costum experience through the pen and colour play their part. But I didn't find the right case for it that protects it ... Still nervous to drop my Libra or the pen while travelling 😬😂

And yet another excellent bookish video from Elizabeth!❤❤❤ I have just received for my birthday from my husband my second kindle (the first one is almost 15 years old and it is still working but it it loosing the battery very quickly now, poor thing). So I am not looking for a new e-reader but it is still interesting to know about Kobo. By the way, do you know the book The ship of Theseus by J.J. Abrams? In it, literally annotations are part of the story. 😅 Take care🙏🏻☺️ oh! Waiting patiently for the Notion video, because my Notion book pages need help!😅

[@pati_hummingbird]

Great video! I have started to read more recently and was searching for a systematic way of annotating. You are talking about it so passionately that I can't wait until I start creating a key for the next book I'm reading. Thank you! I am also currently waiting for my Kobo Libra Colour to arrive and now my excitement increased even more haha

[@Kdmud]

Boy, I just bought a Kindle Scribe a few months ago (which I love), but the Kobo looks wonderful! While I am not interested in going down a rabbit hole chasing E readers for the perfect one…I do have to ask…would I be able to add my Kindle library to the Kobo, or do would I need to start fresh? Very curious how you fill the library on the Kobo. Thanks for another great video Elizabeth!!!📚🤎🌟

[@tiannat6996]

You could add you kindle library to your kobo but it takes a bit of effort. You'd have to use a software like calibre to remove the protection on the kindle books and then convert them to kepub or epub to then transfer to the kobo. Once you've got the hang of it, it's not actually too bad and doesn't take too long. It won't work on KU books though

[@Kdmud]

Thanks for the answer, I think I’ll stick to my kindle for now 😅

[@irismaye5992]

I have a Kobo Clara but I have been obsessing over the Kobo Libra Colour. Soon, I will get my hand on it.

[@vernabailey3671]

Great review. Everyone is talking about color for book covers and comics/manga, but I only wanted it for the annotation. Very informative. Thanks.

[@MemphisJones]

Yayyyy so excited to see this.❤️❤️❤️ My Nook has literally separated at the seam, and I keep using it! 😂 also thank you for sharing your nail polish color.

[@solar1913]

In your exemple I would be in the background, listening to the lively discussions, being fascinated by them but not participating and being extremely happy to just witness it.😊 I do not annotate, tried and failed miserably, but I have to say that at the end of the video when you explained how you simply highlight a chapter or couple of paragraph and then come back to adjust to the right key or write more sound logical and doable in my brain. I will have to try again.

[@PlantBasedBride]

And that’s ok, too! I’m an introvert so I’ve done that a million times and been very happy to just listen and absorb haha but I’m glad my process seemed logical and made you feel the urge to try it again! ❤️

[@MsBetho23]

On my kobo b&w you can add notes by highlighting the word or sentence then clicking “add note” Not as fancy as on the kobo libra colour with writing in margins but it does the trick.

[@bookish_alone]

This is so cool. I never knew I needed this

[@hipstamom]

Thank you so much for posting this! I read primarily ebooks and will use your tips for annotating my books.

I can’t wait to get a Kobo Libra Colour. I am always highlighting and taking notes reading and can’t wait to do it all on that.

[@PlantBasedBride]

It's so good! I bet you'll love it ❤️

[@3choblast3r4]

You can also just search whatever you are looking for. You don't have to go through your entire list of annotations. E.g. I will often annotate character descriptions. So when some random side character shows up against many pages later I can quickly look them up etc (I often read high and I don't have the best memory lol) But whenever I do that, I will always make sure that either the name of that character is included in the text I've annotated. Or I will write a note attached to the highlight with the character name. This way I can quickly use the search function, look up a name and find the character.

[@KatAlexa93]

Hi Elizabeth, When do you read e-books versus physical books?

[@mayaalexandria8995]

I just got my Kobo Library Colour today! I loved this video it was so helpful. I’m new to the Kobo ecosystem as I’m a huge kindle girlie (I own the paperwhite sig, oasis, and Scribe) but this device looked too good to pass up. I figured two ecosystems are better than one. I got so much understanding from your video of not only annotations (new to that as well! I used my Scribe mainly for journaling and word searches) but how to work this device in general! Thank you for your tips! Can’t wait to put them to use

[@PlantBasedBride]

Oh amazing! I’m so glad I could help get you up and running with your Kobo (and annotating, too!) ❤️

[@mightyorcagames2898]

I don't have a kobo yet, but when I read on my paperwhite I just highlight anything I want to remember when going to do my review since it's all on goodreads anyways.

[@docchina]

it's the best video guideline for Libra colour. thanks.

[@PlantBasedBride]

You're most welcome!

[@hplovinmama631]

Amazon recently came out with a Kindle Scribe. It does a lot of the same things as the Kobo you mentioned. Not having either one, I can't say for sure what differences there are. But it does seem like the Scribe is without color. I'm not sure it has the eraser either, which I have to admit is pretty darn cool. I want to add that the Scribe is like $100 more. Whether or not that's justified with more things, or just a name brand mark up, I can not say. I have a Kindle paperwhite. I finally upgraded to it, I believe, two years ago after having a Kindle from like 2008 or something. Lol Anywho, this is great info! Also, I went back and watched your first video on physical books. Very helpful!

[@st8dtamazone]

Exactly the kindle scribe is black and white, and - most importantly - you can't write in the text. Kobo is the first to allow this.

[@hplovinmama631]

@st8dtamazone Yeah, it looks like you have to make a box to write in. Seems kind of annoying. I love my Kindle paperwhite, but I would 100% get this kobo if I could. It's crazy how Amazon tried to come out with something to equal the kobo but fell flat, really. But then it's so much more expensive. 🤨😒

[@retromagnetism]

Hi, Elizabeth! Thank you so much for this video! I've been waiting so long to see it on your channel! It was very useful! However, the only problem that I found when I annotate my Kindle Paperwhite is that is in black & white, so I cannot be creative as I would like and do with the physical book, or like with Kobo Libra Colour (because I don't have it haha). How you did it before you have this product? Have you got any advices for Kindle readers? Thank you so much again! I love your content! 🧡

[@PlantBasedBride]

I’ve never read an ebook on a black and white device, but essentially it just removes the colour coding/key aspect since you don’t have colour options. You can still highlight, bookmark, and take notes - it will just take a little longer to find a specific annotation later ❤️

[@retromagnetism]

@@PlantBasedBride Thank you so much for the advices! I will do it soon! 🧡 Have a nice day! ^^

[@purplestarkatz]

Maybe you could try adding a letter or word at the beginning of each note to differentiate between different categories you annotate? It wouldn't completely solve the problem, but at least you'd be looking for a specific keyword or letter at the beginning of each note rather than having to read the whole thing.

[@PlantBasedBride]

@@purplestarkatz that’s such a great idea- I love it! Numbers could work, too 🤔

[@evewithwonder]

How would you approach annotating audiobooks? Lately, I've been doing most of my reading through audio, as I'm having a really hard time focusing on text. I'd like to have some sort of notes or annotation of the non-fiction books specially, but I can't think of a way that would work 🤔

[@PlantBasedBride]

I’m planning on making a part three for audiobook annotation! I love audiobooks and listen to them often, so I’m very motivated to find a good process ☺️

[@evewithwonder]

Thank you! I'll be waiting for it 😊

[@CamsCampbellReads]

That's a nice device. Looks like it integrates with Readwise too. That's my method for notes and highlights. Readwise puts them right into my Notion database from Kindle or I can take a photo of physical text and it OCRs it and puts it in my Notion. I DO NOT like highlighting on Kindle with my finger though. It's an awful experience. And I would also like to be able to write on the screen. That stylus idea looks great!

[@PlantBasedBride]

The stylus feels much more natural, I find! I’ve heard of Readwise but never tried it. It sounds awesome!

[@doubletakerotts]

@@PlantBasedBride Readwise and its companion Reader are 😘. Sooooo sooooo good. Definitely check it out.

[@SelenaFoxglove]

I wonder if readwise works well with handwritten notes done with a stylus?

[@doubletakerotts]

@@SelenaFoxglove I asked them about that (talking about Reader, since I think that might be what you mean?) citing an iPad Mini and Apple Pencil specifically - and currently they do not have that functionality and aren't currently working on it. But, may in future. Certainly if more people would ask for it (I have twice 🙂) I think they would be more inclined to work on that functionality. It would be so incredibly useful to have.

[@chou8220]

ahhhh nooo, don't convince me to cave & buy the colour! 😭 I'm trying to wait for the release of a 8" colour one 🤞🏼I have a Kobo Sage & been using it more & more recently. I started to annotate again thanks to your first video, both physically & digitally. What I do to annotate digitally on a non-colour e-reader is (don't have the stylus): - tab/bookmark where I stop/start, maps, glossary & favorite pgs so its easer to navigate. Also Kobo allows you to filter what kind of annotations (bookmark, highlight, notes, etc.) you did, making it easier to find what you're looking for. - highlight & use the (I call them) pop-up sticky notes; when you highlight, you'll have the option "add note" then you'll be able to type something even tho it takes forever. Once you save it, it'll look like a little sticky note on the side. To differentiate my notes, I label them at the start like "character" or "story" & add my thoughts after. Again, I use the filter tool to only look at highlights or notes & it's easier to pick out things I need with the label right at the start. - I also keep a separate physical journal to summarize what I read each day so I can pinpoint what events happened when. These are simple things I do & have been effective & fun for me. I am a visual person too so I probably will get the colour eventually. 🥺 Really great video showing off the kobo colour & it actually being used to it's fullest potential! It gives me more reasons to buy it!!

[@deborahcraytor3967]

I'm a little bit confused about your saying that, before getting the Kobo Libra Colour, you couldn't take your notes in your e-reading app but had to save them in a separate app, therefore requiring that you had to also include a page number, etc. I have been using a variety of e--reading apps for years (Kindle, Nook, ReadEra, Libby), and all of them allow you not only to highlight a passage but to attach a note to that passage directly in the e-reading app. No switching between apps, no remembering to note page numbers.

[@PlantBasedBride]

Sorry, I wasn’t super clear on that! I personally don’t like using those “hidden” notes in ebooks because I find them harder to access/easy to forget about. I personally preferred to have all my notes in one place or clearly visible on the pages of the book! But I know that note functionality works for some people, and I’m glad ❤️

[@thewanderlustlibrarian]

I think Google already answered my question but I have to ask you - can we get Kindle ebooks on the Kobo ?? I really want an e-reader but so far none reply to my 2 criteria: having colors AND access to a huge catalogue of books (traditionally published or self-published.)…. Also, this is probably a question for annotating on physical books but… do you ever regret writing on the books themselves ? This is really the big thing that makes me not annotate : I cannot write on my books, especially as I tend to do some shelves cleaning once a year and donate books to the local library …

[@tiannat6996]

You can read kindle books on a kobo but you'd have to use calibre as they're protected and in the wrong format

The fact that you can't sort bookmarks by color is absolutely a deal breaker. I think I'd rather wait until someone incorporates this fully with no workarounds. Great tips - this is something I've been wanting to improve, as most of my reading is done on my Kindle nowadays.

Not willing to drop nearly AU$500 on an e-reader and stylus. In Australia, for some, that's a whole week's rent (or a big chunk of it). Nice looking e-reader though.

This video was like a 10/10 KZbin content video, but everything you said like actual usable content wise could've been 3 mins or less, please don't waste my time for view minutes

Maybe I just talk a lot but I truly struggled to cut this down any shorter without feeling like I was eliminating potentially helpful information 🤷‍♀️ I'd rather share more ideas, tips, and advice than make a video that barely scratched the surface.

Rude. Maybe just don't waste your time watching it. Nobody forced it on you. I found it very informative and interesting.
