It doesn't matter if the blueprint book is related to templates or not - the mod itself uses blueprints for exporting and importing configuration, and this includes logic on when to show the import/export/clear buttons (and this is where you hit the crash in the savegame).
Blueprint stored as part of a book are also meant to be supported by the mod (so you can group your inventory templates in a single book). There have been some changes around how the blueprint books are handled in version 2.0, and I did not account for them (nor test) when updating the mod.
For now, until I come up with a proper fix, you will have to disable the mod. It should not take long, but I need to wrap up another crash report from a different mod first. :)
