A Bibliophile's Dream
Remember when reading time for the sims was that one red generic book in The Sims 1? Well, bookshelves have since evolved from that one defacto book to over a hundred different books in The Sims 3!
Buyable Books
Books that can be bought at the book store and/or come as starter books for a bookshelf.
General Reads
- Sims can read these books for pleasure and enjoyment.
- A sim will get better enjoyment out of reading books that relate to their traits. For example, a Flirty and/or Hopeless Romantic sim will enjoy reading books of the Romance genre more than an Unflirty sim.
