Upcoming Book Mod - Submit Your Requests

NokuoroNokuoro Posts: 3,413 New Member
Hi all :)

I'm creating a custom book mod that adds custom books to the book store and I'm in need of anyone's help. I know a lot of books out there.. but I want to mix up the genres since I know more YA books than any other genres.

So, if you know of any books that you like and would like to see it in your sims' game, submit the following please :) :

-Name
-Author
-Genre
-Approx. Pages

If you do not mind doing that, I will seriously appreciate it! :)

Here's a preview of what the custom books look like in game:

I will be linking to this thread once this mod is uploaded. You will get credit for recommending the book :)

Added books:
-The Lovely Bones; Alice Sebold
-The Count of Monte Cristo; Alexandre D.umas
-The Five People You Meet in Heaven; Mitch Albom

    Excellent recommendation! I think that might be more of a thriller/fantasy, though. I've read it before :)

    I was gonna suggest The Hunger Games trilogy books but it looks like you've covered that already. How about this:

    The House of the Scorpion
    Nancy Farmer
    Sci-Fi
    380 (give or take)

    Amazing book for those who haven't read it. It's about a drug lord in the future who uses clones of himself for organ transplants to extend his lifetime. If I say anymore it'd give too much away. :)
