Have you ever read a book passage that you’re certain could one day be applicable to your life? But, between your shopping list, work to-dos, and your aunt’s upcoming birthday, the passage quickly fades from your memory causing you to draw a blank when you really need to reference it.

Over the past year, I’ve been exploring and testing new methods for organizing what I’m reading for easy retrieval in the future.
