BTW, does anyone have a list of all the books gained through work opportunities/adventures? It'd be quite fun for Sims trying to collect all the premade books into a library to have a list like that.

== Opportunity Books ==
There's another book, Street or Sidewalk: A Cautionary Tale. I don't know the page number, but it's in the journalism carrer. Thanks. --Zacknjess
==Time Machine Books==
Hi I wanted to post here regarding books you can receive from the Time Machine. I was playing with Agnes Crumplebottom and I signed her up for the book club available via the computer and I received a book titled "The Fall of Atlantis". Thing is, I don't have Ambitions installed, only base game and World Adventures, so I don't even have a time machine. I googled the name of the book as it had an unusual appearance and looked to be pretty valuable and came across a post under the [http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/Time_Machine Time Machine page]. And then I noticed there wasn't a list of these books available through the Time Machine. I'm not sure if these books are exclusively to the Time Machine (Ambitions) or already available in the base game but hard to get. I haven't edited anything as I'm not very sure, but I'd like someone to take note of this and edit the books page properly.[[Special:Contributions/210.24.86.245|210.24.86.245]] 09:14, April 3, 2011 (UTC)
:I'm just into the game files, especially the books.xml. For a lot of books, e.g. the time travel ones and those from the vacation's bookstores the flag for the required EP isn't set and thus they are theoratically available in the basegame. This explains, why you could get them. -- [[User:CompleCCity|CompleCCity]] ([[User talk:CompleCCity|talk]]) 15:24, June 16, 2015 (UTC)
== Trivia ==
I'm pretty sure many of the book titles are plays on real world books, perhaps we could try and compile some info on that. At least I'd like to think that ''A Game of Thorns'' is inspired by ''A Game of Thrones''. They sound alike and it's '''almost''' an anagram.

== they need a more simple system of books ==
they should just have idincal books from the bookcase and fun and study opions back
==New Books by Expansion Packs==
I suppose newer expansion packs have new books shipped as well. Mainly, ''Generations'' and ''Pets'' books have not been updated for this page. Someone needs add them and I'll rearrange the tables and lists.

=="Books First for Learning" and maids==
As I recall, when my latest EP was ''Seasons'', maids would consistently ignore any "Golden Books" that were left on floors or tables. I have recently noticed that, with ''FreeTime'' (patched), maids ''will'' pick them up. Either this is something that was fixed between ''Seasons'' and the ''FreeTime'' patch, so maids recognize "Golden Books" as things to put away; or the "Golden Book" was always something maids might or might not put away.

:I've heard the same thing too, but I never paid attention to the maid's behavior. AFAIK, later EP somehow broke the golden book cover and turned it into generic cover. Since ''Apartment Life'' was my first EP, I didn't know if it was true. I don't know whether this could have a connection with that issue or not.

==Cookbook from ''Makin' Magic''==
IMO, that would fit better with an article about the MM baking oven. [[User:Dharden|Dharden]] ([[User_talk:Dharden|talk]]) 16:52, August 13, 2014 (UTC)
:In ''The Sims: Makin' Magic'', the oven is called the "Standard-Plus Brick Oven for Bakers", and isn't listed in [[stove]] because it doesn't cook like a normal stove. Should we call this new article [[oven]], or would that be too confused with [[toaster oven]]? --'''[[:User:K6ka|k6ka]]''' ([[:User talk:K6ka|talk]] | [[:Special:Contributions/K6ka|contribs]]) 17:05, August 13, 2014 (UTC)
::Probably. How about [[baking oven]] ? [[User:Dharden|Dharden]] ([[User_talk:Dharden|talk]]) 01:02, August 14, 2014 (UTC)
:::No objections here, I think that's an even better name. I think "Oven" could be a disambiguation page instead. --'''[[:User:K6ka|k6ka]]''' ([[:User talk:K6ka|talk]] | [[:Special:Contributions/K6ka|contribs]]) 01:35, August 14, 2014 (UTC)

==Into The Future Books?==
Where are the ITF books? The bookstore in Oasis Landing has several books not available anywhere else. I was trying to buy them up without picking up extras of normal ones I already had in my sim's normal time and was hoping for a clear list but I am having to just pick through the other book lists.
