When I read, I'm bad at keeping all the details in my mind, so ive been trying to take more notes!

I generally have a page of static information with major sections such as:

• Places (Continents / Clans)
• People (Main characters / relations)
• Items (Important things)
• Glossary (Fictional words)

I also keep a section for quotes that I enjoy or stuck out to me (or chapter reference, if it's just a whole good chapter)

I keep a spare blank page to use as a "scratch buffer" while I read, so if a character or thing is too insignificant / boring to include in my main overview of notes, I can omit it.

And lastly, I try to do one-line summaries per chapter, just so I know I'm not TOO lost as to what the heck is going on.

Sometimes I take notes on my phone, sometimes in a coilbound lined notebook.
