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?

No. I read the entire book and then forget everything. Nowdays i try to at least jot down my thoughts in a post reading review so i can go back and see what i thought about the book but I even forget that sometimes.
