Issue description

The ID of the book is the default Patchouli one although the book is being created from a Mod.

The rather confusing documentation doesn't help either, it's instructed that the folder where the books are specified needs to be named patchouli_books just to then say in some paragraphs after that if the books are being loaded from this folder the book id will be the default one?

Then what folder is not an "external" one?

Steps to reproduce

1. Install Patchouli
2. Create a book
3. Done

The ID of the book you are showing is latinos:latinos_guidebook. Book != book item. The default book item is provided by Patchouli, what book it refers to depends on NBT data on the item stack. You can provide your own book item by setting dont_generate_book in book.json to true and pointing custom_book_item at your own item you register, and calling the Patchouli API method to open the book in the use method.

The "external patchouli_books folder" docs are talking about is the one in the root of the game instance folder, used for modpack books.

Also, please ask this kind of stuff on Discord first.
