Shakespeare did not write books as we would understand the meaning of the term--something written for the purpose of being published--apart from his two long poems. His inspiration for writing them was that the theatres were closed for health reasons, and he had to make money somehow. Venus and Adonis is semi-pornographic, which no doubt helped sales. Shakespeare made good money off of it.

Why did William Shakespeare not write books?

Since everything Shakespeare wrote has at some time or another been published in book form, from one perspective he certainly did write books. Indeed he intended some of it, especially his long poems Venus and Adonis and The Rape of Lucrece to be published in book form.What you mean possibly is: "Why did William Shakespeare not write novels?" The reason is that novels were at that time a new form of writing that was rare and not fully developed. There was no money in them. Plays on the other hand were what Shakespeare was paid to write.
