Missing files after macOS upgrade

After I upgraded to macOS Monterey my pdfs files in books disappeared. Where are these files in the backup (time machine)?

/Users/<username>/Library/Containers/Books/


Restore that folder from backup. Containers are how things are sandboxed. Probably best to restore the entirety of the Containers folder tree.
