Absolute must for every library

Ah this one is my favorite

"Reproduction Used To Be Different"

A true classic on any goblincel's bookshelf.

I was laughing my ass off at some of these book titles. Would fit perfectly on Jordan Peterson's Bookshelf.

Reproduction Makes no Sense
Whats the Point of the Poor
The Millitary Used to Be Harsh
Proof: Based on Logic
Rainfall Will Doom us All

I can't wait to find a book called Lobsters: A Menace to Society.

Do these new book titles provide benefits for dwarves and visitors which read them or are they just for reading?

Has "The [Subject] Revolution and Its Consequences have been a Disaster for the [Race] Race" been made a title yet?

@ipreferpi Thanks! Removed apostrophe in the new update (version 1.5)

One of the titles is [Word] and It's Consequences. This should be "Its Consequences". No apostrophe for possessive. :)

Sorry no, that doesn't work. I have dwarves that are legendary at all kinds of topics and all they ever write are manuals. Too bad, I'd love mod that increases the % at which other forms of books are written. The best chance I get is if I create a new library and introduce dwarves with 0 skill, they are the ones most likely to write on random topics.

@mordmorgan I think form of the literature is based on scholar dwarf's skills. You can try to set dwarfs with Critical thinker skill in order to get more books about history.

What about more types of books? I only ever rarely get a book type of short story, or biography, or historical comparison. Is there any way way to mod the the rate at which those types of books get written?

The death of [subject]
[subject] for the simple (or any other fancier term for "dummies")
[subject] and the art of wagon maintenance

Spotted while generating a world tonight: "Gorlak-Shaped Mountainhome". Sounds like a fun building project. Thanks for these :)

@Nilserich It should be fine. Update will only affect the names of books created after the update, already existing ones will be unchanged.

Does the update negatively impact existing worlds and playthroughs.

I've only heard that game and mod updates can be risky for them, but I can't judge that very well yet.

New 1.2 update should be available now! Thanks for your suggestions everyone

The damnation of [subject].
The [subject] paragon's whispers.
[subject] across cultures and borders.
Seven seals drawn to [subject].
Black Bronze, Fire Agate, and [subject] rituals.

This is excellent, thank you!

"The Stars Keep Me Up At Night" (a book on making star charts)
"My Friend Yells" (a cheerful, if average novel about nothing in particular, written in a dark pit)
"Trap Design Involving Tides" (a cheerful, amateurish book about tides, which mostly remains me of the old scheme of using water traps for mass-harvesting merfolk bones in previous DF versions)
"Victory By Reproduction" and a sequel "Reproduction: Does It Exist?" (both written by the elven father of 9 children by 4 different women)

The Elves. If or when?

Lusty Kobold Maid

@Fish Everlasting Thanks for your suggestions! I added most of them in update 1.1 (should be available now)

Ah I see. That makes sense.

Differential [Subject]. Fun [Subject] Experiments For You And Your Children. [Subject], The War-Elephant In The Room. Notable [Subject]-Related Deaths Throughout History.

What To Do About [Subject]? When [Subject] Goes Wrong. Little-Known Facts About [Subject]. The Forgotten Beast Made Of [Subject]. Secrets About [Subject] From The Dark Pits. The Death of [Subject]: A Scholastic Criticism.

I have no idea if any of these are even any good! But feel free to use em if you like. These are kinda fun to generate, honestly!

A Beginner's Guide to [Subject]. Introductory [Subject]. [Subject], Fact or Fiction? When [Subject] Was Young. The [Subject] I Knew. [Subject] Throughout the Ages. [Subject] of the Ancients. Finding [Subject]. The Search for [Subject]. A Synthesis on [Subject]. [Subject] Overview. [Subject] In Review. [Subject] Revue. What You Don't Know About [Subject]. Practical Applications of [Subject] In Peacetime. [Subject]'s Paradoxical Effect. Scholarly Insights into [Subject]. What's the Point of [Subject]? The World's Topmost [Subject]. Oh No, [Subject]! Where Has [Subject] Gone? Trap Design Involving [Subject]. Kobold-Sized [Subject].

Book titles are like templates where some part of the title is subject-related and other part is pre-made. For example: Start Your Day With (Subject here) or (Subject here): A Brief Introduction
So this mod's titles work the same as vanilla.

So these are pre-made titles which have a random chance to be chosen as book titles or what? I thought the way vanilla titles worked is they were randomized sentences with key words related to the contents of the book (or perhaps the writer's culture).
