My vampire sims read the magic tomes often

Hi, recently, my vamp sims read the magic tomes even though they don’t understand the magic spells. Is it normal? I didn’t experience this until I started purchasing the tomes from the market in Realm of Magic for collection.  There are some magic tomes and vampire encyclopedia in the same bookshelf. My vamp sim always choose the magic one, not the vampire one. I thought maybe he wanted to become a spellcaster. 
I activated his sons’ house. One of 2 sons is a vampire too. And he started to read the magic tome as well. So I’m curious it’s very common thing to happen?

    When they get a push to read something it is completely random what book on the shelf they pick. They will not gain skill from any skill book they may choose to read. in this manner.

    @jpkarlsenActually, I don’t understand the situation about getting a push to read something. While I just leave them without any command, and they are not in the club gathering for reading books, they are completely free and they go to the bookshelf. I have 2 bookshelves at home, and they always pick the magic tomes. Now I erased all magic books, and they don’t go to the bookshelves any more. They just go for dancing.

    All bookshelves in a house share the same inventory so there are no way to have the Tomes only in one bookshelf. As soon as your sims (vampire or not) learn how to dance that will be their favorite pastime. That is why I always limit the number of radios in a house.

    @jpkarlsenYeah that's what I mean. There is a bookshelf with every books, and my sims always takes magic tomes with their free will while they are completely free without any command.. I heard maybe it can be stopped from MCCC module but I'm just curious it's commonly happened in other simmers' game. 🙂
