Is there a way to create a new note that isn’t tied to a status update?

When adding a progress update, you can now add a note. It comes with a full text editor, with different format options and the ability to incorporate links!

Really looking forward to this - sometimes a book I'm enjoying has a fleeting "WTH?!" excursion into awful, or a bad/mediocre book veers toward great, it will be nice to record those moments in the reading journey as they happen.

perfect, I missed this and wrote about in in a comment for another suggetion! I really need this for my reviews as I usually reads sveral books at a time and sometimes forget some particular thought or feeling.
