Should definitely not be in pencil. Should be in some obnoxious color pen/ runny highlighter.

@HOPEFELL so valid…i personally have this weird thing going where i have to erase my annotations if i don't like it or else ill lose my marbles but the confidence is so admired. i usually confine that behavior to an obscene amount of post-its

underlining book passages with a pencil
My friend/sister Rapha inherited some of my precious books when I moved to Portugal, and reminded me last week of my scribbles as she picked up Alexandra Coelho to read. It's nice for friends because they get a glimpse of what moved you, a little snippet of your soul. It's nice for yourself as book owner because using a pen or highlighter is psychopath behaviour

LISTENING TO PEOPLE’S PUBLIC TRANSPORT CONVERSATIONS AS A MEANS OF CONNECTING WITH HUMANITY
two women next to me on the train are having an insightful heart to heart. a guy behind me is clearly flirting with this girl and you can tell it’s mutual. we all have rich, rich inner lives :)
