Additional senses: a number of sheets (ticket or stamps etc.) bound together on one edge; "he bought a book of stamps"; a major division of a long written composition; "the book of Isaiah"; a written work or composition that has been published (printed on pages bound together); "I am reading a good book on economics".
In standard Scrabble scoring, BOOK totals 10 points before multipliers. That sum uses official letter values: common tiles (A, E, I, O, U, L, N, S, T, R) are worth 1, while D and G are 2, B, C, M, P are 3, F, H, V, W, Y are 4, K is 5, J and X are 8, and Q and Z are 10. BOOK relies mostly on common tiles, which often makes it easier to play from a mixed rack but caps the raw ceiling compared with high-premium words.
