ago Hi thanks for the comprehensive review So far I have the same use cases as you, however I do have a Macbook. Or, if you have the plain text (again, something any Project Gutenberg-type book would have), you could import the whole text into a notes/wiki/research app like Roam directly. MarginNote seems like it prefers for you to use one MN project per 'topic' while LiquidText prefers one project per document.
