I don't know how long I waited for the book... (I started playing again some time in June) I missed the first one I saw, then who knows how many weeks later I saw one and got it, two games later (the one I just played) I got my 2nd. I wouldn't worry about it... like you say, you get higher scores without it. Just persevere. Trust me, it won't avoid you forever. Keep playing and have fun, and one day (hopefully soon!) You'll see it and think, !!!

!!! OMG YES!!!
