Books Custom Post Type (Genre, Authors and Series)
Books CPT registers a Book post type for managing books in WordPress.
Taxonomies

Book details
Each book supports an excerpt, a series order field, and repeatable purchase links (retailer + URL). Add links in the Book details meta box below the editor.
Book Purchase Links block
Insert the Book Purchase Links block on a book page or template to show a single call-to-action button. Clicking it opens a dropdown of retailer links — so multiple stores never clutter the page with separate buttons.
Find the block by searching book or buy, or browse the Books block category in the inserter.
Customize the button text via Button label in the block settings sidebar when the block is selected.
Preset retailers: Amazon, Apple Books, Barnes & Noble, Kobo, Google Play, and Other (custom label).
