About this ebook

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 bibliofantasy for book lovers everywhere!

Ratings and reviews

A very enjoyable volume. Reading about Myne and her beginning struggles to adjust to noble society is very interesting, but what I enjoy most is Myne and Ferdinand banter between each other.

I started watching the anime but likely I got impatient so I started to read this novel it is my first time reading an anime based manga novel as I am old school and I will only read black and white mangas from way back in the day but I find this to be quite enjoyable so thank you so much for making such a great story that hangs me on the edge of my seat as each page is turned

The anime ending made me emotional that Im so invested with the anime, im so invested that I decided to go with paid contents so I could follow (I cant see any free manga or novel). A lot has happened in this book and my money is not wasted, i no longer regret spending money for this book.
