🔧 Installation instructions
**IMPORTANT**: This mod rewrites the code for the 2-heart event to support a fourth book option. If you've seen the original 2-heart event, use the console command:
```
debug ebi 39
```
Rewatch the event or all book related content will default to the sci-fi option. (You need to take a nap before the book content will reflect your choice)

Install & use Install: SMAPI mod (Stardew Valley standard)
- Install SMAPI first (Stardew Valley's mod loader): download it from smapi.io, run 'install on Windows.bat' and pick your game folder.
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and find the folder that contains manifest.json — that folder is the mod.
- Copy that whole folder into Stardew Valley/Mods/.
- Launch the game through SMAPI (run StardewModdingAPI.exe or set it as the launch option). The console before the title screen lists each mod's load result.
Cheat-style tools may not need SMAPI — unzip and run them as the readme describes. Back up your save before editing it; SMAPI lists failed mods in its console.
