Literary Apothecary: Magical Realism

The new genre for my LITERARY APOTHECARY series is "Magical Realism" which is one of my all-time favorite genres!

I also decided to try annotating a book - complete with highlighting and doodling and writing and everything. What an immersive reading experience that is! I thought I could share my techniques in you're interesting in trying the annotating experience as well.
