A spellbooks opener is 99% of the time the same?
What I mean by that is once we have created a spellbook, we will open (with that spellbook) pretty much every game in the same way.
Its as if our first couple of turns are pre-determined.

It's easy to feel that way. As humans (I know, speak for myself) we gravitate towards the familiar. Try mixing thins up and you'll find this is where the game really shines.
Last night played two games as Wizard (first time as that class). The first game I popped Cheetah's Speed and zipped all around while teleporting the Lock into traps and what not. I was mana starved the whole game but it was damn fun. This completely threw off the other player who was used to me building my mana generators and spawn point.
The second game I played more traditionally (Mana Crystals, Gate, Obelisk, etc...). I used fewer spells and completely different ones in that second game, with the same deck.
If you and your opponent find yourselves doing the same thing every opening, dare to be different and throw your challenger off guard. I think you'll find that game very, very interesting!
Enjoy.
