Bookstore

A bookstore is a rabbit hole in The Sims 3 where Sims can buy and sell books and other forms of literature. These include cooking recipes, fishing books, music sheets, skill books, alchemy recipes, and comic books. Sims can get a part-time job in the bookstore as a bookstore clerk. Snob Sims are more likely to visit the lot that contains the building.

Bookstore rabbit holes generate the following red map tag in-game:

The older the issue is, the more expensive it will cost, with issue #1 costing the max vintage price as listed below.

Academic textbooks
Academic textbooks are sold under general books tab, but Sims who are enrolled in college can read these books to further increase their performance.
