Is this in NG or NG+? Have you, at any time, activated NG+ by finishing the epilogue and locking in your choices? I did find a mistaken save game patch that can potentially cause the issue you describe if you lock in NG+ and then play regular NG.

There are major issues with how I treat both Charisma and Perversity in NG+. I'm thoroughly overhauling both and fixing the problems as best I can for existing saves. NG+ turns out to be a real bitch to implement properly, with lots of really confusing logic behind the scenes.
It was in a NG but I did have a NG+ flag saved still. If I can narrow down how to reproduce it, I'll post the details, but it might be the very thing you found already.

It should be basically impossible for it to be anything else. My fix won't let you read the books, but you should at least get perversity for them as if you had. Of course, anyone who has not run into the bug by the time the fix is out won't notice anything out of the ordinary.

Are you on version 0.35.1, and are you 100% sure it's the book point? If you read the book on your first playthrough, the book won't show up in NG+ by design.

On the other hand, if you're on 0.35.1 and didn't have max charisma by the time you started NG+, you can't max it out. I've decided to hotfix this, most likely today. But I'm not going to release anything until I'm sure that you haven't discovered another bug. Not that I can see any reason in the code why it should go wrong, which is why I'm asking if you're absolutely sure.

and that's why ng+ isn't used much. 1 game it is used part of money and gifts are on ng+ but rest is gone.

All right, so you did read the book on the first playthrough then, just as I guessed?

Yes I read the book on the first playthrough.

I also found there seems to be some issues with skillpoints in NG+ where it says you have the skillpoint, such as courage, but when you try to do the skill check it fails. I found this when talking to Callie and asking for the nude show, I had full courage but had not done courage training with the guy, and it said i didnt have enough courage

That is one of the fixes in this hotfix.

With your issue resolved, I'm going to push the new update out shortly. Just have to upload over 6 GB of data first...

Version 0.35.2 is out. I strongly recommend updating.

Changelog 0.35.2:
  • Charisma can now be increased in NG+ even if you didn't max it out in your first playthrough. You might be asked a few questions in the process. Don't worry if your charisma seems blank. It fixes itself.
  • Perversity could behave unpredictably in NG+ and even in NG if NG+ had been activated at any point. This has been fixed for both new games and existing saves, though the latter might suddenly (and safely) gain points too early if they already suffered from the effects of this bug.
  • Tweaks to Pathfinding in NG+ to properly skip Erato's training if needed and remove some dialogue when it shouldn't be there.
  • A certain Courage check used with Callie now works properly in NG+.
  • Modified and future-proofed the way charisma is awarded and how the player is notified about this. You shouldn't notice any difference here, but the code changes are substantial and necessary for version 0.36.

I'm having trouble trying to reproduce it. I'm using version 0.35.1, my NG+ save has all the stats maxed out, and I had it happen on a NG, not a NG+. I had it happen by day 9. Basically i got the books from her house but didn't read them instead going for the charisma book. Then after the interrogation scene, the perversity books no longer showed up for me to read them, none of them. I'll keep trying to figure out how to reproduce it, but it seems to be an elusive one.

You know nothing about version control. Belle has been using a system where the first two digits after the first decimal point increment every release, after a brief bit where the first two releases did not follow that format. After the second point, bugfix versions of the main release. So the game is on the 35th major release in the development cycle, not 35% done. The game has reached a point where you can take multiple paths to true endings and most of the current work is polish and implementing the New Game Plus (NG+), where you can choose to go through the game again without losing the skill points you earned on the first pass and maybe see some additional content that will be locked behind NG+. The game is far closer to being finished, than not.
