I can make handwritten notes in apps like Pages or Notability, because they are designed to be used that way. E-book apps are designed to "give" info, not absorb it.
iPadOS 14 will support handwriting recognition in any text field, i.e. in any reading app that lets you type notes. It works well in the beta, should get even better. Of course you cannot draw diagrams etc. unless the app is ready to accept those.
