My grandmother highlighted portions of text and left notes in the margins of some of her favorite books. She died when I was in my very early 20s. Middle aged me loves going through some of her favorite books and connecting with her (long dead) over bits of prose she thought were especially beautiful and reading her notes in the margins.

OT, but I die a little inside when I see some writing in a book. I’m sure in this case it was probably a student wanting to highlight, but still.
