Books can be obtained in a variety of ways. Some can be bought from the [[Bookseller]]. All books can be gifted to [[Penny]] as a loved gift.
==Power Books==
The 19 power books can give a player special powers. Any that the player has read are listed on the [[Special Items & Powers]] player tab for easy reference. The Well-Read [[Achievement]] is awarded to the player who reads all 19 power books.

==Skill Books==
Reading the [[Queen Of Sauce Cookbook]] increases the player's proficiency in cooking by teaching all the Queen of Sauce recipes not yet known, regardless of their schedule of TV broadcast.
Reading the [[Book Of Stars]] gives 250 experience points in each of the [[Skills|skills]], or if the player has already unlocked access to the [[Mastery Cave]], then 1,250 [[Skills#Mastery|Mastery]] points.
Reading each of the other 5 skill books grants the player 250 experience points in the specific associated skill, or if the player has already unlocked access to the [[Mastery Cave]], then 250 [[Skills#Mastery|Mastery]] points. Re-reading one of these 5 skill books gives the player 100 additional experience points in the associated skill or 100 mastery points.
Skill books do not apply toward any player [[Achievement]].
