I take notes obsessively for every book I read. 

It’s not a shortcut. It’s laborious. 

But to be honest - I don’t trust myself to absorb anything I don’t write down.

Love this. I don’t retain much of what I don’t write down from books either. You might enjoy Derek Sivers’ Books I’ve Read, if not on the radar.
