Ascendance of a Bookworm is the perfect manga for book lovers!

[@matumetal6114]

this series was a light novel before it was a manga actually! :D and with most light novel turned manga that usually means the light novel is way further ahead in the story so if a reader is caught up on the manga they can always go ahead and read the light novels to see the rest of the story while they wait for more manga volumes to come out!!

[@abibliophobe2731]

I bought the light novel and hope to read it this year. I've been interested about light novels and this seems like the perfect introduction

[@asasdad1041]

too even more presise it was first a web novel than a light novel than a manga

[@asasdad1041]

@@abibliophobe2731 is one of the best light novels out there you maybe develop a too high standard for light novels if you are starting with accendace of a bookworm. i find any other light novel lacking in deep structure like aoeb. there are also 3 Fanbooks ( i recomend the second(if you a story maniac)) and 2 sidestory volumes besides sides storys in part of the main volumes abot 2 too 4 each

Me at school: “A book worm in a world that never reads”

[@Ihatethatveganteacher9934]

Same! Like ahhh how do you imbeciles not read at all?

[@shalinel]

I am OBSESSED with the light novels!

[@Zulooth1]

I've bought all the books for the light novel that I can so far.

[@ViviFuchs]

Oh my God I love that series. Myne is such a hilarious character. Her special interest 100% is books and I am all for it. I haven't read the Manga but I've read the light novel and there are so many volumes out.

[@LukasJampen]

The light novel is also excellent and the english translation of the last volumes will probably be finished this year (almost 40 volumes).

[@kiri92azel]

The world building in this is so AMAZING!

[@hopegate9620]

I have heard a lot about this, although only the lightnovel version, I didn't know it'd been adapted to manga. It's definitely on my to read list, but I'm planning on keeping that to read in a target language, so it'll have to wait some time until I get to that level.

[@Emil-nm2qf]

It also has an anime with like 40 episodes

[@SirAlex0014]

I absolutely love this series.

[@bluemacaroons]

This series is amaaazing! I’m currently waiting on the next part to come out on j-novel club. Definitely recommend it

[@joshportal2808]

It is separate into 5 different parts. It technically has 6 different manga series but all are the same story just different time periods for the Main Character. It has currently 32 books of Light Novels and 3 anime seasons and season 4 is currently being made.

[@justinblachek6603]

There's also three seasons of an anime of that as well

[@little1133]

If you get to the end of the manga and want more before the next bit is done, try the light novels.

[@matthewstone5310]

“A bookworm in a world where no one reads.” That sounds very close to the first half of the classic “Twilight Zone” episode, “Time Enough At Last.” 👍❤️

[@Iamawiter]

I love this series

[@Lich-gj3wk]

I like the pick but i don’t think it’s for everyone. You can’t really go wrong with recommending a typical shonen. But if they aren’t into that type of story going with an easy (preferably completed) romance manga is also a good choice. Ex: -Horimiya -Even if You Slit My Mouth -Doujima-kun Won’t be Disturbed There’s nothing wrong with your recommendation. I just wanted to put my personal opinion out there. Disclaimer: I do most of my reading online so I don’t know how accessible some of the series I recommended are physically.

[@alkalinekiwi]

This sounds fun, I'll have to check if my local manga shop has it.

[@qisthim1886]

I love the plot❤ The plot: Lord Ferdinand 🛐

[@Shorts-qg5tq]

And don’t forget the deadly mana illness where you die unless you’re a noble

[@breezie3313]

I love this series. I am glad part 3 of the manga is starting.

[@elodie2237]

Yes yes yes, million of yes

[@fatalynn7]

Also Chi’s Sweet Home. I feel like that is also a perfect into to mangas. Especially if you love kitties

[@GwenCross]

I LOVE THIS SIRIES

[@katherinesanderson8990]

Ascendance of a Bookworm is my favourite light novel series, I buy all the newest translated books as soon as they come out (about every other month) and finish them in 3 days tops and I am both excited and sad that it will be done soon.

[@hplovinmama631]

I've been interested in Manga. I have a few friends who are obsessed. But I don't want to start a Manga series that has 4000 books. 😂 This sounds cute.

[@lynn6297]

Bookworm reborn in a World with no books...are we sure she didn't end up in her personal hell?

[@tigura02]

My absolute FAVORITE isekai! I second this recommendation!

[@BresBooks83854]

And there's an anime!!!

[@pinkjacketX0X0]

This is very good!! Just binge watch the whole anime last month, it's very cute and wholesome but has some action and political aspect too so not to boring, highly recommended for book lovers ❤❤

[@carom3270]

I honestly thought you just made that up😅, I couldn't imagine a book/manga with such a story...until you pulled out the sequels😂

[@Arya-no2qc]

HaHA YES MY FAVORITE SERIES

[@another-book_lover]

totally gonna give it a shot. lol the irony of books being the literal death of her

[@Rangar1997]

This is a good synopsis of how the series starts. This is how the series ends . . . . . Spoiler . . . (obviously) . . . . . . . It ends with Harry Potter meets Game of Thrones.

[@MadDogRyan]

I prefer the novels the manga is great but I like writing more also the manga is the adaptation of the novel so the novels are not a novelisation

[@mizMissusS]

Maybe because I started the anime first but I find Myme a bit too much of a know it all although I am aware that is her character trait. It’s just me. I find Apothecary Diaries the same way too. Eventually I got tired of Maomao because in my head she looks 14 even when they say she’s 16/17 but they’re putting more romantic intones in the later volumes which is meh.

[@chkensammich]

I don't see how she's a know it all, she never really said outlandish stuff like Senku from Dr stone Her knowledge is very average and mostly arts centric (beauty, fashion, the art of writing, cuisine)

[@owenthompson4071]

The anime is fun too

[@Ezeekat]

I still need to check it out!

[@KaiValkrom8]

I don't have any money 😢
