They could still inspect them if they want to. Presumably after the
twentieth
game the interest in inspecting the first book diminishes.

I checked it out once, and it wasn't ready then, and clearly it still
isn't.
In case I haven't made myself clear, I consider the behaviour that snagged
Harriet to be a don't-play-this-game level of bug. Sure, once I know
about it
I can avoid it, but I'll assume there are other things equally obnoxious
until
it is fixed.
At an absolute minimum, the library [or whatever you call it] should tell
the
player to 'I'nspect any unid'ed book, and not accept it until that is
done.
