1111 Individual pieces range from a single Book to a multi-volume Book Set, plus Open Book, Open Scroll, and Scrolls variants. Every variant in this sub-category shares the same Books comfort bonus, so placement variety is purely visual.

1717 Every piece in this set grants the same +1 Books Comfort, and that bonus is counted once for the Books category no matter how many volumes you place. Stacking five Hardwood book sets on one shelf looks fuller but adds no extra Comfort. To raise your total, combine Books with other unique categories such as a Lamp, a clock, or a globe. Comfort drives the Rested buff, which boosts Stamina regeneration and lengthens by one minute per Comfort Level, so each distinct decoration category is worth one slot. See Comfort System for the scoring rules.

2323 Stack and cluster several books on one Table to create a library scene. Their small footprint means multiple pieces rarely collide.Open Scroll pieces work well on desks next to a Grandfather Clock or Decorative Globe.Comfort +1 bonuses in a given decoration sub-category do not stack. Placing a second piece of the same sub-category does not add more comfort, it only changes the aesthetic.All variants snap to flat surfaces. Pair them on a Decorative Tables or Shelves piece, add a Luxurious Bookcase behind them, and the corner reads as a captain's study.Because the bonus tops out at one per category, mix Books with a Grandfather Clock and a Decorative Globe rather than doubling up on books, if Comfort score is the goal.
