I found what was causing the issue with the books. It was a mailbox I had in an older group of mods. I also discovered while testing my mods that all custom foods and drinks caused last exceptions for me. At this point everything is resolved except for the fish bowl issue. My sims can fish without problems but they can't put any fish in a bowl without causing a last exception while in base game with no cc. I noticed my cc aquariums no longer function at all either. Could be there a bug in the game itself with the fish?
@BumblingBard I'm pretty sure I've seen references to fishbowl bugs. Head to Bug Reports separately for that.
