I was watching Anime for a long time already, picked up a manga here and there but I didn’t really enjoy them. It felt like there was so little story and I could finish one in under an hour. So I gave up on Manga.
I watched So I’m a Spider, So What?/ Kumo desu ga, nani ka? when it started airing and it hooked me instantly. Her character. The world. The comedy. Everything. (Except the humans…).
Once it was over, I wanted more. And since everyone kept saying the Light Novel is way better, especially the human side, I bought the first 3 volumes.
It was amazing. I binge read them until I had to wait for the English releases. Right now I’m waiting for vol. 16 to be available again so I can finish this series.
Can you give me a sales pitch on ascendance of a Bookworm? I see it recommend or praised a lot but the story doesn’t seem that intriguing to me.
@EnmaAi22 The Main character went to library school before being Isekai’d to a place with magic but few books … As a sickly commoner. It’s fairly slow paced, but the world building is top rate. Some folks cannot imagine being as obsessed with books as she is, but I married a librarian and I read hundreds of books a year.
Like any book, it’s not for everyone.
I also love female led books that aren’t romance-centred. It hits my buttons well.
And lete guess, she is trying to make books more commonplace in the world?
I think I’ll give it a try and order the first volume:)
