    In Delores's flashback you must solve a puzzle that involves going into the library in the Mansion mansion to look for a book on programming. Once you activate that portion of the puzzle, you'll notice that there's lots of books on the shelves in the library. Each of these were written by Kickstarter funders. "Look at" 100 of these books (make sure to open the cover or it won't implement), and you'll have an easy 50G.
    *edit* Several people have confirmed that you don't need to open the book to actually have the achievement implement, so that will save even more time if you're not feeling like reading.

    WhyattThrashCan confirm. Had the tracker open while doing it, just looking at the book is enough. They DO need to be 100 different books but no need to open the cover.

    Hunter KahnMake sure that you use the "Look at" function to click on the books, not the "Open" function. Using "Open" lets you view and read the book the same way as "Look at" but it does NOT count toward the achievement. I "opened" 100 books and it didn't work, and then I had to do it all over again with "Look at."

    Senior ChuponAnyone have issues with this not unlocking on windows 10? I haven't tried on console, just asking. I haven't counted but I swear I've done 100...

    Inspector AdamThanks Hunter, that was a vital tip!

    ChooseMyFateSimply just hit The X Button on the book and move to the next. You can use the Achievement Tracker to help you see how far you are.

    GR34TD3STR0Y3Rwin 10: counter says 122 books. won't pop.

    edit: it popped at like 130. I think it was either REALLY slow in popping or they need to be 100 differnt books and some of the one I clicked on were the same, so counted on the Xbox app but not towards the acheivment.

    WhyattThrashThe solution doesn’t mention it, but yes it needs to be 100 different books.

    ChooseMyFate1 book = book and 2+ = books. Not to be unkind, but the achievement is pretty specific that it's not a single book 100 times. If you read 4 books 25 times each you still only read 4 books versus 100.

    WhyattThrashAchievement titles and descriptions are often wrong, sometimes requiring to do something more specific than described, and sometimes something less specific.

    It happens all the time, so it doesn’t really matter if an achievement description is specific or not, if there’s any chance of misinterpretation then it’s good to be specific in the solution.

    JissiPlayed on Win 10, its 100 DIFFERENT books. No need to open cover, right-click then close with ESC is fine.
