Reading books is a valuable activity that allows you to boost your Social Stats, unlock new activities, or gain special abilities. Books can be purchased from the bookstore in the Central Shopping District or received as rewards from quests.
How to Read:
You can read books in your room during the evening or late night, or sometimes during school. Each book takes a certain number of reading sessions to complete. Each session consumes a time slot.
Types of Books:
- Social Stat Boost: Books that permanently increase one of your Social Stats (Knowledge, Courage, Expression, Diligence, Understanding).
- Activity Unlock: Books that unlock new activities, such as fishing at Shichiri Beach or new part-time jobs.
- Skill Books: Books that grant special abilities, like increasing the amount of time you can spend in the TV World or making it easier to get '1 More' turns.
Tips for Reading:
- Prioritize: Focus on books that boost stats you need for Social Links or unlock important activities first.
- Rainy Days: Rainy days are excellent for reading, as many Social Links are unavailable.
- Read in Advance: Some books take multiple sessions to complete, so start them early.
Reading is an efficient way to use your free time, especially when you're waiting for specific Social Links to become available or when the weather limits your options.
