Books quits unexpectedly

Books, Mojave, quits unexpectedly.

When I open Books, it opens momentarily and it disappears.

It does the same thing when I click on the Reopen button.

Apple Books freezes up repeatedly I have purchased Mac OS Catalina by David Pogue from the Apple Bookstore. I've been reading along, highlighting here and there, and suddenly, last night, it wouldn't let me do anything: highlighting, turning the page, etc. Tonight I picked it up to try again and it let me turn the page once before freezing up again. I have tried quitting and relaunching the app, rebooting the iPad, making sure I am updated to the latest version -- 13.5.1 (17F80), etc. Advice appreciated.

Books won't open on M2 MacBook Air On my Mac Mini and iPad Air I can open and read all my books without issue. On my MacBook Air M2, only a few of my books will open. They all used to open, prior to Ventura. My Mac Mini, iPad Air and MacBook Air are all associated with my AppleID and all have been authorised. One weird thing I noticed is that in Books | Settings | General if I tick download new purchases automatically it only stays ticked for a few seconds. I have tried signing in and out of my account. I tried de-authorizing and re-authorizing my MacBook Air. Not even an Apple book like "MacBook Air Essentials" will open on my MacBook Air.

I was just doing a search on this. I have the exact same issue. Not sure what has changed since the last time I opened Books.
