Okay, one thing about collecting book knowledge is that it has little value if it isn't put into practice.
One of my favorite ways to do this is to:
Read the book
Think through similar situations I've experienced and how I might react in the light of the material I'm reading
Read the Wikipedia page (great for getting the "big ideas" out of the book)
Boil down the book into a few key ideas
Reduce even more to just a couple of phrases you can pull out at any time
E.g. Purple Cow by Seth Godin is a well-known marketing book that can be distilled into one idea:
People see cows all the time – brown, black, white.
They aren't that special when you drive by herds of thousands of them.
But, if you see a purple cow, now that is worth taking note and talking about.
And distilled down even more to just one phrase: be remarkable.
