My most recent - and successful - @RoamResearch workflow for working through books...
A mix and match of what @soenke_ahrens, @Conaw, @cortexfutura, @shuomi3, @anthilemoon, and @nateliason have taught me.

1. I highlight books/papers very abundantly on Kindle for Mac. The experience on the Mac app was much better for me, and reading on my work desk has given me more "reading stamina" since I feel less sleepy.
2. I paste the copious highlights (and some notes taken right on Kindle) on a Roam page, and then re-read them, creating new notes/pages for important concepts. I place the new notes/pages created while working on a book in a block called "New pages::"

6. Finally, I create very abundant "Related tags::" at the end:
Cheers, and end.
