Ascendance of a Bookworm: Part 1 Volume 1

By: Miya Kazuki, quof - translator, You Shiina - illustrator

Narrated by: Reba Buhr

A certain college girl who's loved books ever since she was a little girl dies in an accident and is reborn in another world she knows nothing about. She is now Myne, the sickly five-year-old daughter of a poor soldier. To make things worse, the world she's been reborn in has a very low literacy rate and books mostly don't exist. She'd have to pay an enormous amount of money to buy one.

Can’t wait for more

I liked that the reader sounds like the voice actor for the anime. I’ve been wanting to read the light novel so this was a great find!

The storytelling was wonderful

This was engaging narration. I really enjoyed it. I can’t wait for the next book. I listen to it in one day.

This book was great!

These Japanese authors have a story. This "bookworm" reincarnated in another world is a well-rounded story that allows the MC to survive.

My Favorite Series now Has an Audiobook

This is one of my favorite series, if not my most favorite. I love reading/hearing Myne struggle to survive in and learn about her new world as she tries to make books. Reba Buhr’s performance brilliantly adds a new dimension to the story and characters.

this is one of my favorite stories

i have enjoyed the anime, the manga, and especially the light novels. i did not know if getting the audio was worth it, but of course it was. the narrator is really good.
now the MC is whiny in this story, but she is also a child. As the storyline unfolds she grows up. the whining goes away. looks like im going to have to get them all. again.
