Just realized my book club notes went from a mess to something I can actually use

Honestly, for years I'd just scribble random thoughts in the book's margins or on a napkin. Tbh, I could never find my old points when we met. About three months ago, I started using a simple note on my phone for each book, with three clear sections: quotes I liked, questions for the group, and my main take. Ngl, it took two meetings to get the format right. Now I can actually add to the debate instead of just listening. Has anyone else found a simple trick that made their club prep way better?

Wait, that sounds like way too much work. I just bring the book and talk about whatever I remember, that's the whole fun of it.

Oh man, my friend tried the "just wing it" method like @robert_rodriguez66, and she spent the whole meeting trying to remember the main character's name.
