--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.
Why not? We don't all learn the first time so we keep reading untill we understand. So in this case, click-click would be you trying and trying to learn the text as in real life. And I totally agree with that person who suggested about books not turning into dust. Its not realistic and maby the scrolls should but not the books.
