Please describe the patch or change you made. July 23, 2024 patch

I updated my game for the latest patch. 

I deleted my onlinethumbnailcache file and loaded the game. I created a new household, a spellcaster, and moved them into a lot in Glimmerbrook. The sim traveled to the magic realm, went to caster's alley and purchased a magic tome (plentiful needs). I clicked on the tome, but the study tome interaction was not available. 

The spellcaster sim was able to learn spells via the other methods: experiment on cauldron, practice magic, ask sage, etc. However, the sim is unable to simply buy a tome and read it to learn the spell.
