FixBookGUI
FixBookGUI moves the book screen so it sits in the middle of the display instead of the top center, fixing a placement bug.
What it does
The book interface is drawn in the middle of the screen, where the centered layout was intended, rather than being pushed toward the top edge. The change applies on the client, so only the player who installs it sees the corrected screen; a server does not need the mod. Builds exist for Fabric and NeoForge across the range 1.18.2 – 26.3, under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and the mod is open source.

The placement logic is based on a gist by mworzala, which the author credits as the basis of the mod.
