I bought this tablet since it was cheap and had a stylus. Works great for hand written notes with Write.

If you don't need to edit and just need to add more annotations and pages, I also recommend Xournal (and maybe Xournalpp). It has pressure sensitivity support too.
For what it's worth, I also recommend Wacom tablets, even if it's their cheapest product. (In fact, I've only ever had their cheapest product.) They have a wireless battery-less technology and out-of-the-box Linux support for years now.

This is the stuff! Well I've tried it with the mouse, but I'm guessing once I have the tablet, and if it can be used as a drawing tablet for linux xpp will work life a charm with it too. (And it's conveniently in the repos as well.)
Thank you all for the helpful suggestions. I might post a follow-up when I've actually tried it with the tablet, how the experience was.
