Book of life missing

I did make a book of life. When I was finished capturing the life of a sim, the sim put it in the bookshelf. Now I cannot find it anymore. I tried this 2 times now and the same happened.

  • You might try selling all your bookcases, or putting them all in household inventory, to see if that stops your Sim from putting the book away. 

  • @ElinBraun If you have a BG storage chest around, check the inventory in that.  Sims have a tendency to put books away in those at times.  So, if you have one, check it for the missing book.

    Hope this helps.

    ElinBraun​ and everybody else who had the same problem: the books are actually stored in the bookcase after capturing a Sims' life, but can only be found if "Open" the list of books as inventory panel. The book has a mystery cover (black with a white flower)

    I usually trash all books coming by default with the bookcase, but prefer to let the Sims handle inventory themselves, so they don't just leave the book on a random surface when I'm not paying attention. I "lost" a book for a couple of game sessions in a big house, wasn't fun looking around every surface.

    Maybe was a bug in the past, not anymore anyway.

    Hope this helps after so many years.
