Re: Ebook readers: Do you use the highlight or bookmark?
I do frequently use the highlight feature, though. I highlight passages that really stood out to me. I also highlight errors in the text (in a different color). By highlighting, it makes it easier to reference these quotations later on for reviews or just for reflection.

Highlighting is cool as well to because I can color coordinate with the different highlight options and I can leave notes. Even though all of that is great, sometimes to me it can be a little overwhelming and to me it can also take away the enjoyment of reading the book.

People who read are hiders. They hide who they are. People who hide don't always like who they are.

On my kindle, however, I use the highlight feature as much as I need. I rarely use the bookmark tool.

I have never done it on my physical books by since becoming a reviewer I have using those features on the kindle.Bluebird03 wrote: ↑06 Feb 2019, 07:20 I am a natural born highlighter and love to do so in my hard copy books. So, I love the features in the Kindle to either highlight a sentence/paragraph or to bookmark a page. Do you use these features regularly?

I would never highlight a regular book, unless it was a textbook or something I'm using solely to study a topic!
