Synopsis of Honzuki no Gekokujou
Motosu Urano, a book-loving college student who recently earned her certification as a librarian and was supposed to start her dream job after graduation, dies in an earthquake by being crushed under her massive collection of books.
Desiring to reincarnate with the sole desire to continue reading, he reincarnates in a world with a low level of literacy and very few books, limited only to the nobility of the world. As she adjusts to her new life as the humble soldier's five-year-old daughter, now named Mayne, no matter how much she wants to read, there is no way to access books. If there are no books, what do you do? Of course, you make them yourself ...
Her goal now will be to become a librarian no matter what, and to live a life surrounded by books, but this time, crafting them herself.
