Hi everyone! I've been reading several books lately (nonfiction, psychology, everyday living) and I want to be able to recall at least the major themes and outline of them so I can share this information with friends. I'm the kind of person who struggles to read slowly, rather quickly trying to get to the end to see everything an author says, but then afterward losing motivation to go back through the text. And personality-wise, I find myself to be more big-picture; it's hard for me to remember specific details...
Does anyone have any particular practices they find helpful? Whether it be jotting notes (and if so, how?), reading repetitively or slowly, or recounting it to someone else?
