One thing: I like this idea, but if you fail the first time, you should have to level up at least once before trying it again. Books should not be 100% reliable, and a low-intelligence character shouldn't be able to sit there clicking and clicking until finally he learns a spell WAY too advanced for his character.

--Or maybe use a formula, like [spell level - character level = number of tries] the character gets with that book. After you use up all your tries you have to level up for another chance.
