Notes are most unreliable part of Boyue firmware as it seemed to me. Every time new firmware for Mimas was released it introduced more bugs than fixes for notes. Sadly, poor memory management hasn't been fixed at all.

TL;DR there're 2 ways:
1) Backup filesystem structure (i.e. books+notes and other stuff as it's being stored on your book). Then do factory reset. Put all stuff from your backup back to your Mimas and try to open your notes
2) Simply search for your notes and convert those into something. They're just bunch of PNG files coupled via XML file. And never ever try to rely on notes on Mimas
3) Plot twist. 3rd option. Probably you're using external memory SD card instead of internal memory. Then you can backup stuff from your SD card. Format card, put stuff back on your card and try notes again. It might be faulty SD card as well.
Thanks for the tips! I actually found a workaround to the issue that I am encountering. I just went into the e-books that had the problem and added some text comments. This stopped the crashing when I try to access the notes later.
