Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Open up the list of books to order and look at the piano books. Piano Vol Book 3 has a typo in the title. The title reads: PIANO VOL 3: CONCERTOS, MINUTES, AND SONATAS Unless this is a purposeful joke, MINUTES should be MINUETS. A minuet is a Baroque and Classical-period dance of medium-slow speed in a triple meter. Composers such as Haydn and Mozart, and even Beethoven used them in their Sonatas and Symphonies, and Concertos. They were also composed in the Baroque by Bach, Handel Couperin, and others during that period.
What happens when the bug occurs? Nothing other than I noticed the typographical error in the book title. It's not a game breaking error, but is one that should be fixed at some point.
What do you expect to see? The title to be spelled correctly.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Never used.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure
