Even Better Enchanted Books
~
Even Better Enchanted Books is a resource pack that gives every enchantment its own unique texture for enchanted books — all in a clean and faithful vanilla style.
Designed for clarity and immersion, each texture communicates the enchantment’s purpose without deviating from Minecraft’s visual identity.
