For some reason, a lot of my underlining seems to be character focused. Like I'll underline passages that I think show defining attributes or descriptions of characters. However, I also underline striking passages. Ones that are written really well, pose an interesting thought, or seem to be linked to some sort of theme. In the end, this is probably why I underline too much of my books. I feel like the whole mess is probably driven by the notion that, at some point, I might need a quick reminder of certain aspects of the book, whether it's for an essay or simply just to remind myself.
