• Each location has a number of challenges that reward you with a stamp in your journal upon completion.
  
• When in doubt, after completing a challenge, you will need to return to the associated location again in order to finish the challenge and collect the stamp.
  
• Many challenges are unlocked sequentially and won't be available to start until you return to the location after completing the previous stamp.
  
• Hovering over a challenge in your journal will provide more details if you don't know what to do.

• As you progress, characters will make requests of you, resulting in a memory polaroid in your journal upon completion.
  
• Some memories are awarded when certain criteria is met (such a completing a location's challenges), without an associated request.
  
• Some memories can be broken down into multiple requests while in progress but replaced with a single memory when completed eg. Klaus's A Rusty Proposition
  
• Each character has a Core Memory (denoted by a gold border) that is usually the culmination of their personal story
  
• As with challenges, hovering over a request in your journal will provide more details if you don't know what to do.

• Characters will generally only talk to you about one topic per day and prioritise these topics in an order that may differ from yours. If you are trying to discuss something specific with someone it may require them visiting your shop and talking to you across multiple days.
  
• Generally an item needs to be equipped to your shop in order to make progress in the associated challenge/request (including for delivering collected funds and the like). Though there are some exceptions, it's recommended to have any relevant items equipped just in case. If you are unable to progress, make sure that any relevant items haven't been unequipped.
  
• Items given to you by characters (both as part of challenges/requests and as gifts) usually automatically equip themselves to your shop. If there is no open slot for that type of item (eg. no open wall space) the game will unequip something to make room - so be sure to double check your shop set up afterwards and adjust as needed.
  
• Items bought (from vendors or the newspaper) do not auto-equip, and will need to be added to your shop from the customisation screen.
  
• Remember to look around each location for things that can be interacted with or picked up. Even if you think you've checked a location, things can change especially with a new season or as you complete challenges - there might be something new that wasn't there before.

• Remember to tailor the genres you have stocked to the location you are headed to. You can check each location in your journal to see which genres are most popular there (after you have visited the location at least once).
  
• Aside from location, you can affect the sales chance of a genre in two main ways - with the number of books of that genre that are stocked and with the items you equip. It can be very useful to change out your shop decorations often, especially if you are trying to achieve a certain outcome.
  
• A successful recommendation will also increase your sales chance of all genres for a short time (the length of this bonus can also be increased or decreased with items).
  
• There is no penalty for an unsuccessful recommendation (aside from that customer leaving your shop), so it is usually worth trying to recommend something even if you're not sure it's a match. You (and the customer) may be surprised.
  
• Items can also increase or decrease the number of recommendations you are asked for per day. This can be especially useful if you are working on a challenge or request requiring you to complete a certain number of recommendations.
  
• You can always check your journal to see the effects currently applied to your shop and which items are attributing to it, so that you can adjust accordingly for future days.
  
• The colour of customers clothing indicates the genres they are most likely to buy (confirmed for both default and custom genre colours)

Generally only make progress towards challenges (and their corresponding stamp) can be made at the location tied to that challenge, so if you're not making expected progress double check you've set up shop at the correct location.

Also keep in mind that when giving recommendations it is possible to find a suitable book in a different genre to what might be expected, use this to your advantage.

Ace Maryam's trivia quiz

Acing Maryam's quiz to pass this challenge requires answering 3 out of 4 questions correctly.

Maryam's Quiz
(There seems to be two possibilities for the first question but both relate to least optimal selling conditions. I've not seen alternate versions of the other 3 questions, please comment if you have)

1. What is the least optimal day to visit the Méga Marché?
Answer: Sunday

1. What is the least optimal time to sell at the beach?
Answer: Winter.

Answer: Anything warm.

Note: most of the Far Beach challenges can only be received and completed during Summer. For Evil Under the Parasol, Go for the Kill, and And Then There Were Some?, the Concerned Parent will visit your shop at the end of Summer to inform you that you were "unsuccessful" and the challenge will lock, but you will be able to pick up where you left off next Summer. It's unclear if it's a bug or not, but exiting and reopening the game can sometimes cause the locked challenges to unlock and allow you to make progress (eg. selling crime novel at the beach) during Autumn and Spring, however you still won't be able to properly finish the challenge until Summer.

Tilde needs to be sure of your business know-how, and she trusts Maryam's assessment above all.

Complete Maryam's six-step business course

You'll need to show off (by having it equipped in your shop) your B.L.A.B.L.A. membership plaque to Tilde, which you receive for completing all the Café Liberté challenges (and also Maryam's A Course Completed memory).

Tilde truly believes in your knowledge of business, leadership and administration.


Help your fellow Bookstonians on their journey and unlock the power of true friendship.

Make memories with 4 of your friends.

Complete the Core Memory (gold border) with 4 people, see each character's section for details on their core memory. (Note: as Moira and Maryam's Core Memories are the same, completing both of theirs only counts as one.)

You have some truly amazing people on your side, who will help you through thick and thin.

(Core Memory)

After completing A Worthy Heir, the next time you visit the Café, Tilde will present you with her keys and let you know she will meet you at the entrance to the bookshop at the end of the day.

Close up your wagon and celebrate the opening with your friends.

It was nice of Tilde to visit on your first day. Even if she was just keeping tabs on you.

After completing all previous memories, going forward whenever you go to the Café location you will work out of Tilde's former shop instead of your wagon (don't forget to equip and decorate it beforehand from the customisation screen!), but you will still be able to scroll across the screen to view and interact with the rest of the Cyril Plaza outside as usual. Tilde will obviously come and visit you on your first day there and congratulate you.

Equip Anne's strange seedling at inner-city locations, away from the sea, until it's fully grown.

Equip the plant at inner-city locations

In early Spring Anne approaches you for help with her research and tasks you to equip the seedling in urban locations (eg. Café, University, Hospital). Having the seedling equipped isn't enough for it to grow, as Anne mentions, it seems to have an affinity for Crime books. You may have noticed a 0/35 tally when you initially acquire the request - this is indicative of the number of Crime books you need to sell with the plant equipped at inner-city locations. There are three different phases of growth depending on how many books are sold and it's possible to go through multiple stages in one day (the growth is shown at the end of the day) if enough books are sold (eg. 2 growth phases if 20 Crime books are sold).

Despite Anne warning you to keep it away from the coast, there doesn't appear to be any negative effects aside from the Crime books sold while at a coastal location not contributing towards the growth of the seedling.

Once the Villose Pitcher-Plant is fully grown, Anne will visit your shop to take notes and give you the next plant for her research (see below).

Wow, this creepy plant has a job! It eats invasive slugs around Bookstonbury!

---

Leave Anne's newest seedling outside in the rain until it's fully grown!

Equip the plant on rainy days

As with the Villose Pitcher-Plant, simply having the plant equipped in the correct location-or weather in this case-is not enough. The Lamprocapnos spectablisis loves Drama, so you will need to sell 35 Drama on rainy days with the plant equipped.

Despite Anne saying it needs to be outside in the rain, the seedling will still grow if it is equipped inside your shop.

How is the bleeding heart still blooming? Quite dramatic.

---

Equip this last seedling as you visit Bookstonbury's coastal locations.

Equip the plant at coastal locations

Once again this is a picky plant, for the Aconitum to fully grow you will need to sell 35 Fantasy books with it equipped at coastal locations (Far Beach, Lighthouse, Waterfront, Castle Ruins).

In antiquity, wolfsbane was used as a poison. Now, it could be used to heal!

---

Complete The Villose Pitcher-Plant, The Bleeding Heart, and The Bane of the Wolf.

You helped create some freaky mutations. Seems like they like being around books...

---

Let the flowers speak and decorate your shop for the festival on Spring 28th.

Equip 7 plants

After the announcement of the return of the Flower Festival, Anne will encourage you to decorate your shop for the occasion. You will need to equip 7 plants which can be obtained from various places - the seasonal section of the newspaper, Anne's stall in the Flea Market, found and picked up in locations you visit, or given to you by Anne as gifts or part of her other requests.

You will need to have the 7 plants equipped on Spring 28th when you attend the Flower Festival in Rye Park.

You have mastered the art of floriography.

Sometime after completing Anne's Research Project, Anne will invite you to attend her graduation ceremony held on the next Saturday at the University (don't worry you can't miss it).

Call upon your friends around town for some original manuscripts that are worth printing.

Collect 3 manuscripts

Sometime after the University is available to visit, Fern will talk to you about wanting to restore the printing press. The first step - collect manuscripts to print.

Potential Manuscripts:

• Your Own (The Bees, The Brave Bookseller, or Dark Drama, depending on choices made) - received for completing Your Big Debut, by interacting with the typewriter from the Flea Market
  
• The Adventures of Walt and Kore at Sea - from Walt as the result of Spin a Yarn
  
• Murder in the Supermarket - from Tilde after her hospital stay
  
• B.L.A.B.L.A Compendium - from Maryam after A Family Matter
  
• Anne's Dissertation - from Anne after she graduates
  
• Méga Rockstar - from Klaus after he returns from tour
  
• St. Bookston's Manuscript - received as part of The Fragments of St. Bookston Case

Bookstonbury's fiction and folktales are safe with you.

---

Give Fern a masterclass in how to talk to new people at the park.

Join all 4 park groups

Fern will approach you in the park (unavailable until Spring Year 1) about their nervousness in join the writing group and asks if you will join all 4 of the groups that meet in the park so they can see how it's done.

The groups each only appear on certain days, and only if the weather is nice:

• Chess club: Mondays and Wednesdays
  
• Yoga group: Tuesdays and Thursdays
  
• Creative writing club: Fridays and Sundays
  
• Study group: Saturdays

Fern will visit your shop in the park after you've spoken to all 4 groups.

Yay, Fern finally seems ready to join the Writer's Group!

---

Repairing a piece of 19th-century technology is a costly endeavour.

Collect 300 donations

After collecting 3 manuscripts Fern will give you the Printing Press Donation Jar which will allow you to gather donations to fund the restoration of the printing press while it is equipped. Fern will visit your shop to collect the donations once you have gathered enough.

Restorations have begun thanks to your generous donations.

---

The old printing press is back in operation. Try it out at the University!

Print something with Fern

Visit the University after completing Patron of Print and Fern will invite you to join them in the groundskeeper's cottage (building to the right of your shop) to print the books of the manuscripts you collected.

Beautiful typeset! And the tasteful lettering... Printing is an art form now no longer lost in Bookstonbury.

---

The stories are real now. In your hands. In black and white. The people need to read this!

Recommend 7 hand-printed books

Fern will ask for your help once the printing press is up and running and you've printed your first books. This request requires a lot of patience, as you need customers to be asking for a recommendation that matches one of the books written by you or your friends in Bookstonbury and be lucky enough to have that book on your shelves at the right moment.

Remember to return to Fern at the University often to stock up on more hand-printed books, especially as you gather more manuscripts.

As usual, you can equip items that raise the number of recommendations you are asked for per day to also increase your chances.

Your name will not be forgotten. Because you printed it on the first page of over 7 books.

---

(Core Memory)

Help Fern restore the old printing press: The Stories of Bookstonbury > Patron of Print > Fresh off the Presses. (Confirmation needed whether It's All About Popular is also required)

Fern is admired by his fellow Bookstonians for telling their stories and giving them a voice.

The Continenta has claimed our shores and polluted our waters. How can we make the waterfront worse and scare away those tourists?

Get rid of the cruise ship tourists at the Waterfront

Speak to Walt at the Waterfront while the cruise ship in present (16-23 of Summer, Autumn and Spring - may not occur during Summer Year 1) to hear his displeasure about the tourists. You will need either a Raw Fish (purchasable from Walt on Wednesday at the fish market at the Waterfront, note: the fish market does NOT run while the cruise ship is present) or a Spoiled Fish (found by interacting with Maryam's bins as part of the Café's Harde Times challenge).

Return to the Waterfront while the Continenta is docked with a fish equipped on your shop to attract the seagulls. At the end of the day after you close your shop a scene will play with the cruise ship leaving.

Your seagull minions have fought valiantly by your side. The tourists are gone.

---

Walt has decided to clear out his old fisher's shed. Can you take these last items off his hands?

Buy 7 of Walt's old items

Continue visiting the Waterfront and talking to Walt until he give you this request. Items can be bought from him at the Waterfront on regular days or during the fish market. Return to the Waterfront after you've bought 7 items (Walt will let you know when you've done so) to see the result.

Trinkets 'n' Treasures is up and running! Not in small part due to your patronage.

---

Attract customers to Walt's new shop with a cool cross-promotion deal.

Sell 30 books in a day at the Waterfront

Talk to Walt once Trinkets 'n' Treasures is up and running at the Waterfront then try and sell as many books as you can. Make sure you have plenty of Fact and Travel stocked, remember that making a successful recommendation will also boost your sales chances for a short time and all the other usual advice about increasing sales chance applies.

Walt will call you over at the end of the day after you're successful.

Thanks to your help, Walt's new shop is a booming success.

---

In all those years on the sea, Walt has seen a lot. Help him tell his stories.

Inspire Walt's writing

Talk to Walt after starting The Stories of Bookstonbury request from Fern. This request requires you to successfully recommend 3 books to Walt by speaking to him at the Waterfront. Visit and speak to Walt again after completing the recommendations for him to give you his manuscript.

Are all these stories really true? Well, I wouldn't put it past Walt.

Want to help Klaus come up with a song? Try recommending books he likes and talking to him often.

Talk to Klaus until he feels inspired

Talk to Klaus and successfully recommend 3 books.
Note: Some people report that only recommendations given while at Méga Marché count towards the total, though it seems to work fine elsewhere for others (fixed in Update 5 - August 15, 2025).

Walk those hollow halls of history? Oh hell yeah, I didn't know historical books could be so metal.

---

Looks like Klaus's band it too underground. Show their poster to local metal fans.

Promote Silens Libri using Klaus's poster

You'll receive this request at the same time as Going Stage Diving. Have the Silens Libri poster equipped in your shop until it is seen by 100 people.

Klaus is over the moon! 100 people have already signed up for Silens Libri's newsletter. Big things can happen now.

---

Turns out there's no eligible stage... yet. But wouldn't there be space near the lighthouse?

Find Klaus a stage for his band

After completing An Album for the Ages Klaus will talk to you about needing a stage for his band and point you towards talking to Tomasz at the Lighthouse. You'll need to complete all the Lighthouse challenges and attend the performance at the Lighthouse, then speak to Klaus.

Now that's what I call a stage! Rock on!

Attend Silens Libri's upcoming concert

After completing Concert Coordinator, Klaus will invite you to Silens Libri's concert at the Lighthouse on the upcoming Thursday (don't worry, you can't miss it).

Yo, this was so metal! My ears are ringing now, but wow!

---

Klaus is trying his best to fix this oxidised metal pile, formerly known as a van, into something resembling a tour bus. Can you help him?

Help Klaus repair the tour bus

After the Silens Libri concert go to Méga Marché and interact with Klaus while he tinkers with his van. He needs three items to fix his van and you get a request for each one (when all three are all completed they will disappear from Klaus's memories page in the journal and only A Rusty Proposition will remain):

Note: Two other unneeded but similar items will also be available while you are on the hunt for Klaus's items. They are not needed to fulfil any requests but can be bought for your shop for their bonuses (+2% Fact sale change each):

• Sonic Transmission Spring - buy from the seasonal section of the newspaper for 30 coins
  
• Steel-Plated Wiper - sold by Walt at the Waterfront for 30 coins

Klaus needs a carbonated incinerator... whatever that may be.

Get Klaus a carbonated incinerator

Buy from the seasonal section of the newspaper for 30 coins. It is possible that you might need to buy something else from the seasonal section so there is a "open" slot for the part to show up. Return with it to Méga Marché and talk to Klaus by his van.

You got Klaus a carbonated incinerator. What could it be for?

Find Klaus a washer-proof shifter. It sounds essential!

Get Klaus a washer-proof shifter

Sold by Walt at the Waterfront for 30 coins. Return with it to Méga Marché and talk to Klaus by his van.

You found Klaus a wash-proof shifter. Is he making these up?

Find Klaus an iodine-plated fuel duct, because how can his van run without one?

Get Klaus an iodine-plated fuel duct

Buy from the seasonal section of the newspaper for 30 coins. It is possible that you might need to buy something else from the seasonal section so there is a "open" slot for the part to show up. Return with it to Méga Marché and talk to Klaus by his van.

You found Klaus an iodine-plated fuel duct.


Look at that, who would have thought any part of this vehicle still works?

Klaus is saying his farewells at the waterfront. You don't want to miss it, right?

Say goodbye to Klaus

At the end of A Rusty Proposition Klaus will ask if you will see him off from the Waterfront next Friday (don't worry you can't miss it). Note: "Klaus Leaves Today" might not be immediately viewable in your calendar if you are near the end of a season, but it will be there when the next season starts.

Let's hope this doesn't go to his head! See you Klaus...

On the day of Tilde's surgery, Maryam will visit your shop outside the hospital and invite you to visit Tilde with her at the end of the day. The game will prompt you to click on the hospital doors rather than close up your shop when it's time.
