Windows Bug with Books

  • I have obtained a number of books some from the bookseller and some from golden mystery boxes and from doing other things in the game. When I read the books I would receive a message "You learned something new about ..." and the book would appear in the purple star tab. Then one day I obtained the fishing book, it displayed the usual message, but when I checked the star tab, it was not there. Later I went to the book seller and saw the fish book. Though I had gotten it before, the white thumbs up was not beside the book, so I bought it and read it and again got the message, but it still did not appear in my purple star tab. I have since noticed the same thing happen with the mining book, a book with a tree on it, and others. Here are the books that do stay in my purple star tab:
    • Price Catalog
    • Way of the Wind Part 1
    • Way of the Wind Part 2
    • Monster Compendium
    • Jack Be Nimble, Jack be Thick
    • Raccoon Journal
    • Jewels of the Sea
    • Dwarfish Safety Manual
    • The Diamond Hunter
    • Horse: The Book
    • Treasure Appraisal Guide
    • Ol' Slitherlegs
    • Animal Catalog
  • I am using Windows OS
  • My in-game language is English
  • I am doing single-player

Not all books will show up in the collections tab or have the icon. Books that show up in collections are those that grant special one-time powers. Those (along with the Queen of Sauce cookbook) will also have a thumbs-up icon once you have read them. Books that only grant skill experience are not part of the collection and do not have an "already read" indicator.
