I was looking at special equipment from La costra nostra and found a book. What the heck is a book good for?

...what is it good for, absolutely nothing, say it again, y'all...

Collector's item only. They'll appear on a list on your Detective Page. And there's a high score list of those who have collected the most.

No prize, no advantage, just something else to chase whilst you're moving about doing the normal case thing.

Yeah don't be so hard SS, you'll be off burning down the library next!!!

Yes they are a collectors item, yes you get a tiny bit of XP.

Plus you can read them! It's true. In a tiny little pop up window (remember you can resize it!) so free book for all!!! Woo Hoo!!!

Also very minor and expensive use for books, if you have an apartment and a bookshelf I think other people can read your books so you can give newbies an relatively large experience boost.

but you have to invite them to your apartment, never done it seems like an incredible waste of money unless you have a lot of friends playing the game.

That is correct AKAs. Books can be read on your bookshelf to anyone that you invite into the apartment
