You'll have to return all of the other 29 books to Samuel in the Library to get the quest to find this book. It will not appear otherwise and you need the key given to you by Samuel as part of the quest. The final locked door of the Reliquary is just to your right as you head down the stairs towards the spot where you encountered your first Hollow Men and received the first gun. Enter this door and follow the hallways until you reach the Book of Doom.

Dweller Camp // 1 Book

In the Chillbreath Caverns cave that leads to the Gold Key of Mistpeak Valley, near the bottom of the path that slopes down at the beginning of the cave is an ice pool with a frozen waterfall. Look for a path leading to a small bed with a treasure chest and this book.

Mistpeak Valley Rare Book (2/3) How To Be a Crack Shot

Look for this book in the small booth outside the Monorail entrance. It's on the window sill.

Mistpeak Valley [Chillbreath Caverns] Rare Book (3/3) Book of Mysteries

Note: This book WILL NOT APPEAR unless you've returned five books to Samuel and started the Side Quest to find the Book of Mysteries. Enter the Gold Key cavern entrance -- it's brown, not frozen and just up from the Monorail Station, before you reach the snow line. Run downhill in the cave until you get to the large, frozen lake with a dock. Cross the lake to the far side and follow the path upwards. It will eventually cross a stone bridge and terminate by some bedding and books. On a table here you'll find the Book of Mysteries.
