Publisher's summary

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!

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.

Amazing Story!

I have watched the anime. Have read all the light novels and now am starting to be able to listen to the actual book version come to life. I love this story and can't wait to get to hear the rest in audible format.

amazing

Thank you so much for putting this series on audible. I may big fan of the light novel and Manga and I have all them. I tried to read the light novel but didn't have time to finish it. So I'm really excited to get to read the audible version of the light novel. They picked an amazing voice actor for this series. I know her from a couple other of our titles and was very surprised to see her doing it. They did an excellent job. The amount of hours for the first volume is very appropriate for the price. I am very looking forward to more
