Summary
Following a disastrous encounter with a noble， Myne finally resolves to say goodbye to her family and friends in the lower city， changing her name to “Rozemyne” and beginning her new life as the adopted daughter of Ehrenfest’s archduke。 However， her days as an archnoble in noble society are brutal， as she is put through rigorous etiquette and magic training on top of her duties as High Bishop and forewoman。 It all proves too much for a weak little seven-year-old girl。。。 Or it would have， had the High Priest not offered her the keys to the temple’s book room as a reward。 If she could get her hands on those， she’d be able to read all sorts of precious books！ Her name may have changed， but Rozemyne’s passion for books remains the same as she charges into a whole new world！ The detailed setting expands as the printing industry grows in size。 Here begins Part 3 of this biblio-fantasy for book lovers everywhere！

Rozemyne starts her life as a young archnobel while further developing the craft of bookmaking and cooking。 We get to see some great world building including a lot of detail on how nobles raise their children and how they interact with commoners。 The magic training was kind of funny。 There was no action though and little overall plot progress。 More a slice-of-life part good for character development and worldbuilding。 Loved it。 Curious what is going to happen in future parts。

Least favorite。 I'm not sure if it's because I like Myrne， when she's bumbling into trouble， or as a commoner with a commoner family， but this was was a major disappointment 。 I skipped through most of the chapters。 Least favorite。 I'm not sure if it's because I like Myrne， when she's bumbling into trouble， or as a commoner with a commoner family， but this was was a major disappointment 。 I skipped through most of the chapters。 。。。more

This volume was enjoyable， but it also felt like there was a lot of set up for the next volume。 I burst out laughing at quite a number of moments throughout the book， and I am glad that some of my favourite characters were able to make appearances throughout the book。 It is just that with the increase in scale， my favourite characters do not always appear and have their chances to shine in the book。 As always， I cannot wait for the next volume！

A truly tear jerking and side splitting bookTheir are so many times I was in absolute tears in this book from the way thing went for Rozemyne， in others I was laughing so hard my shots hurt。 This is a really good book， couldn't put it down and finished it in about 3 hours。 A truly tear jerking and side splitting bookTheir are so many times I was in absolute tears in this book from the way thing went for Rozemyne， in others I was laughing so hard my shots hurt。 This is a really good book， couldn't put it down and finished it in about 3 hours。 。。。more

出現了！幼女趣味的神官長ww果然從他人的角度看フェルディナンド對マイン的態度真的很不可思議，就像終於有人能把這人變得鮮活了之類的感想。開始看的時候還不能離開上一部與家人分開的悲傷裡、雖然マイン並沒有特別提到家人，其實只是透過工作麻醉自己罷了，還要提醒自己不要聯想到弟弟，太殘忍了。不過這部開始マイン工作真的很多，開設孤兒院，神殿長的工作，印刷業的興起，搞事業還沒有多少資助，對領主實在喜歡不起來！你除了可以保マイン命以外有何用啊，還一直拿她賺錢學食譜呢！幸好騎士團長一家似乎都是好人，母親是個臉冷心熱的，感覺也是真心想養育マイン的，還有三哥，看ss才知道一開始是那麼討厭マイン的存在，真正遇見後又無比心疼妹妹；覺得這麼小的孩子一直被フェルディナンド利用有夠可憐ww不過這集最精彩的莫過於神官長的演奏會，竟然是偶像派演唱會嘛，賣週邊還被抓包超有趣的ww越來越期待後面的發展了！

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 It was an excellent beginning to a new arc。 I love the light hearted tone through out the novel and especially loved the new characters for they each have unique personalities especially Rosmynes new attendant at the castle hehehe。 I do feel like the excessive ogling over Ferdinand was weird and exaggerated especially since his looks alone cured Wilma of her fear of men。。。

Funniest book of this series！I thought Myne moving to the nobles' quarters would be a scary and foreboding ordeal but boy I could not have been more wrong！ Her adventures and personal interactions with her noble family were absolutely funny and her relationship with Ferdinand was hilariously heartwarming。 I think this is my new favorite in the entire series。 5Stars！！！ Funniest book of this series！I thought Myne moving to the nobles' quarters would be a scary and foreboding ordeal but boy I could not have been more wrong！ Her adventures and personal interactions with her noble family were absolutely funny and her relationship with Ferdinand was hilariously heartwarming。 I think this is my new favorite in the entire series。 5Stars！！！ 。。。more

It feels kinda sad when you open the character page and see Lutz， Benno， Mark and Myne's family introduction is relegated only as a text without photos as what we used to be。 But alas， every good things must come to an end， and Rosemyne （along with me it seems。。）， need to move on to the new world， that is the world of the nobility。As this is a new arc， I don't know what to expect。 So far， I like how the author giving Myne new goals for her life and at the same time widen the scope of the series。 It feels kinda sad when you open the character page and see Lutz， Benno， Mark and Myne's family introduction is relegated only as a text without photos as what we used to be。 But alas， every good things must come to an end， and Rosemyne （along with me it seems。。）， need to move on to the new world， that is the world of the nobility。As this is a new arc， I don't know what to expect。 So far， I like how the author giving Myne new goals for her life and at the same time widen the scope of the series。 And for the first time ever， there is another goals in this series rather than making books， although making books is still the main focus of this bibliography series。All the new characters， while there is a lot of them is still easy enough to recognize once you familiarize with them。 Oh， and now High Priest is written using his real name， which is Ferdinand， while this is a minor thing but for those that is not gotten used to it （like me） it will confuse you for a bit。Aside from the new and shiny things， let's focus onto the old and well-known thing。 Personally， this series is always a page turner for me。 I don't know why someone that generally prefer actions and fantasy genre， gotten head over heels over a slice of life story like this。 。。。more

This is getting so interesting！！！ More characters and huge HUGE plot developments。 I am so excited to read the next of this。 This series is simply so exciting and captivating。 Reading it is such a breeze with how interesting it is too。 Add to that the fact that it has very good writing。 There are certain funny elements mixed with the serious ones。 I am really excited to more of this series！

Start of a new arc - remains one of my favourite light novels。 Excellent blend of slice of life and fairly brutal political maneuvering - not the sort of combination you think might work， but it does！

I love this series to death， and this one was no exception for that。 However， there were quite a few more lighthearted laughs in this volume， including a couple of ongoing situations that had me uncontrollably laughing and having to pause my reading。 X3

Everytime I read myself some Bookworm I regain some hope for the isekai franchise which has become saturayed with bad overpowered characters。 If you are here it means you have gone through 7 of these books and by now you know that they are more about the growth of characters and world building rather than a big OP character。 In this one we keep seei g how myne needs to adapt to a whole new world for the 3rd time and how she uses her creativity rather than her overpowerdness to get over challenge Everytime I read myself some Bookworm I regain some hope for the isekai franchise which has become saturayed with bad overpowered characters。 If you are here it means you have gone through 7 of these books and by now you know that they are more about the growth of characters and world building rather than a big OP character。 In this one we keep seei g how myne needs to adapt to a whole new world for the 3rd time and how she uses her creativity rather than her overpowerdness to get over challenges。 PS。 Everytime I read a novel with an isekaid overpowered character or someone born in nobility I have in my head a little Myne saying: That's bullshit wtf， that is so unfair。 。。。more

Still obsessed with this series！I've been impatiently waiting for this one。 It deals with the changes in mynes life now that she's Rozemyne。 The temple was a transition but this is even more crazy changes！ Also a lot of things we've been waiting for happen in this book。 Like the Italian restaurant， getting her magic mount （i adored the picture of her mount， soo cute！） and how they are going to expand printing。 My fav parts were probably the restaurant and the concert。 I have to say the dynamic b Still obsessed with this series！I've been impatiently waiting for this one。 It deals with the changes in mynes life now that she's Rozemyne。 The temple was a transition but this is even more crazy changes！ Also a lot of things we've been waiting for happen in this book。 Like the Italian restaurant， getting her magic mount （i adored the picture of her mount， soo cute！） and how they are going to expand printing。 My fav parts were probably the restaurant and the concert。 I have to say the dynamic between the brothers and their cousin （Ferdinand， Sylvester， and Kurdstadt） is so great and pretty much any scene with all three had me laughing。 Ferdinands fans were also cracking me up so hard。 Bennoo is still my favorite but these books have such great characters i love a ton of them。 There was a scene near the beginning i saw other reviews complain about。 It was uncomfortable but definitely had no sexual connotations。 It was also very important world building because it establishes the science of how Mynes mana works and how bodies in this world biologically do differ from ours。 I really don't know how they'll include it in the anime because they litterally talk about another important scene from an earlier book that the anime completely left out。 Hopefully they find a way to include the mana info without the scene。 。。。more

Here I am once more。 I read this one in what it felt like an instant。 I thought that， as I am sleep deprived and have nothing better to do， I would review this more extensively than previous volumes。 This volume marks the beginnings of the now called Rozemyne in her role of becoming the adopted daughter of the archduke， though it is still early to predict all the implications of her new status， whoever has read to this point knows that one of the main themes of this series is challenging the cla Here I am once more。 I read this one in what it felt like an instant。 I thought that， as I am sleep deprived and have nothing better to do， I would review this more extensively than previous volumes。 This volume marks the beginnings of the now called Rozemyne in her role of becoming the adopted daughter of the archduke， though it is still early to predict all the implications of her new status， whoever has read to this point knows that one of the main themes of this series is challenging the class system。 We started with Myne waking up in that small and dirty room that she had to share with her family and now she is conducting tea parties attended by all the ladies in the duchy。 She came a long way， in a way， yeah （and we attended to every step she made， even the most tearful ones。。。）。 But the most interesting of this “Ascendance” are not that kind of frivolities， but the fact that now she has real power to put all upside down。 Noble society has strict rules and I am sure she will eventually have to face the political enemies of Sylvester’s faction， but in this little lapsus proceeding Veronica’s fall， she is absorbing so much knowledge and growing immensely as a character。 Also， due to this new acquired power， she is being more creative than ever with her inventions and more eager to keep following her dream。 Now， past two amazing arcs， we can see where all her effort to keep fighting is leading。 It all started with the simple desire， actually a burning passion， to read books。 Now， three years later， she is finally setting up the printing industry and is likely to bring about a cultural revolution， all the while learning to manage her mysterious powers in order to part in search of the potion that will enable her to become a strong noblewoman。 Bit by bit， we are being presented a detailed and restricting magic system along with the already astonishing worldbuilding that gets being rediscovered as we meet characters from different professions and conditions。 We knew mana determines rank in a way but here we learned that there are actual magical ingredients that you have to fetch or buy and， knowing how the plot has gone so far， we can expect those to be involved in political struggles in the future。 We also ended up learning more about feystones， useful to grant blessings and create golem-like creatures （feybeasts） as well as about family-bound magics。 I can only expect for the best for next volume。 Let us see if Wilfried will overcomes that elementary schooler of a dad he has。 😉 。。。more

Another great entryThis is another great entry in the series。 To those wondering if the characters from the lower city were being written out， you have nothing to fear。 It is just a problem that Myne has to solve in this volume and the ones to come。

This book was a little more easy-going after the last one。 It was a little weird not having Myne's family be a significant part of the book， but the plot keeps moving forward and we meet her new family。 If you've gotten this far in the series， there won't be any major surprises in terms of the way the plot moves forward or the kinds of characters that are introduced。 One point that was kind of annoying is it felt like a quarter of the book was spent describing how the female characters were m This book was a little more easy-going after the last one。 It was a little weird not having Myne's family be a significant part of the book， but the plot keeps moving forward and we meet her new family。 If you've gotten this far in the series， there won't be any major surprises in terms of the way the plot moves forward or the kinds of characters that are introduced。 One point that was kind of annoying is it felt like a quarter of the book was spent describing how the female characters were mooning over Ferdinand。 It was especially weird since it left me concerned it was setting the stage for a potential romance between Myne and Ferdinand， which would be problematic for a variety of reasons， but hopefully the sequels don't move things in that direction。 。。。more

Kazuki read my mind！This was probably the most fast paced book in the series to date。 We hit on all the stuff I wanted to see or internally thought about。 The restaurant， Uncle Ferdinand， the cat bus！ I swear I really did think the cat bus would be best for safety and additional seating。 I will have to absorb all the new characters。 At first I thought we would have to deal with more heavy emotions but this lighter theme was what we all needed。 I'm sure the next one will be the start of the uphil Kazuki read my mind！This was probably the most fast paced book in the series to date。 We hit on all the stuff I wanted to see or internally thought about。 The restaurant， Uncle Ferdinand， the cat bus！ I swear I really did think the cat bus would be best for safety and additional seating。 I will have to absorb all the new characters。 At first I thought we would have to deal with more heavy emotions but this lighter theme was what we all needed。 I'm sure the next one will be the start of the uphill climb of part three。 Can't wait！ 。。。more

本作中偶爾會談到，平民需要經過努力地練習，才能流暢地在貴族前用對詞彙。雖然我讀的是中譯本並不太能肯定，不過這應該是作者身為日語的使用者，表達出在各種場景下所使用正確「敬語」的囉哩叭嗦方式吧。——突然覺得身為中文使用者的幸福……
