I take extensive notes on it. There are so many characters, places, events, plotlines, lore, etc. It's proven to be incredibly useful. It's the type of series where once you learn some lore, it's fun to go back and re-read certain chapters with that new understanding. I'll frequently pick up the previous books and rifle through them. The notes make it much quicker to find the sections I want to find.

At the same time, I think taking extensive notes can sometimes make it a little less fun. Like I'm consistently pulling myself out of the moment to jot stuff down.

Do you take notes on the books you read? If so, how do you take notes?

Reading on an ebook reader makes it really easy for me to highlight sections and annotate them. It can be fun to note my various suspicions about the killer as I read an Agatha Christie for example, see if and how early I can guess the killer. Getting those notes back out of my ebook reader and into a format I can preserve has been a bit of a challenge.
