iPad with Apple Pencil (iBook/Kindle/etc)

Is there an app or any software that will allow me to use an iPad or iPad Pro as my ebook and write freehand using the Apple Pencil?

I need to be able to draw graphs, do calculations, and write notes while reading my text books via iBook or Kindle app. I am thinking about buying an iPad to download the next two years of ebooks on it, but if I cannot write notes, I think I will just use my Surface Pro 3. I will pay what I need to for the Apple Pencil and software/apps...thoughts?! School starts in a couple weeks and I DO NOT want to use my surface pro 3, but will if I need to.

iPad Pro, iOS 10.2.1

Totally agree. Also, writing in the margins is one of the most helpful ways to engage with the text; it's actually a learning tool. If I'm reading a novel for pleasure, it's no big deal. But if I'm trying to learn something, I want to highlight, take notes in the margins, underline, throw in an exclamation point or question mark, etc. I'm surprised there isn't more demand, especially in the education context.
