Lenin is always with you.
I do something similar, I read the whole thing first though. It’s just such a problem to even start it or get to writing afterwards. Especially since I’ve been off medicine for around a month. Though, I was thinking of printing the material out on expendable paper and writing on it, and make notes as you’ve described yours.
I assume you mean testing oneself using questions of the book(s)? No, I haven’t find any test to do that, nor have I made one myself. Thank you though because it never came to mind I could try that method, anything that gets rid of that insecurity would help free up the backlog for more material.
What Is To Be Done & State and Revolution. I am constantly pushing it off. Typical for someone with ADHD. Not to mention re-reading even the introductory manifesto because I constantly feel insecure that I didn’t absorb it.
Thanks for the Joplin suggestion. I immediately got into writing down what I read in “What Is To Be Done?”, feeling less insecure and more confident about it. Finally medicated too, so that helps. Thanks, comrade.
