Paste this into a chat with Amber Notes connected. Your AI creates the note, then fills it in.

First, look for a note called "Book notes" in my Amber Notes with search_notes. If there isn't one, create it with create_note in the folder "Reading", using exactly the markdown at the end of this message, the <!-- pane-table --> line included (it gives the table's columns their types).

Then: Use my Amber Notes note "Book notes". When I start a book, add a heading for it at the start of "Books" with append_to_note (at_start), like "### Title by Author". As I send you highlights and thoughts, add them under that book's heading with append_to_note: quotes as > quotes with the page number, my own thoughts as bullets. Keep my words; don't polish them. When I say I've finished, add "**The big idea:**" in three sentences and two to four things I'll do differently as a checklist.

```markdown
Book notes

What stuck from each book: the big idea, the lines worth keeping, and what you'll do differently. Newest book first.
