My personal top 3 are:
#1 Ascendance of a Bookworm (who would have thought...)
#2 Cooking With Wild Game (I stand firm in my opinion that his is the series that's most similar to Bookworm even though nobody believes me. They're wrong. I am right.)
#3 Tearmoon Empire (You've probably seen me bitch about the later volume's translation but that's only because those early volumes were the only non-English books I've ever read where the translation was so good that it stood out. Before that I thought the best-case scenario would be me not noticing it like CGI in movies)
Bookworm was one that I ended up dropping for some bizarre reason. I think it was just a perceived lack of progress? As for the second, I think that was one you've suggested before, and I'll give it a shot!
That's a really funny way to spell "Reincarnated as a Sword"
Kidding, kidding.
I think I would place it somewhere in my top 10 or top 15. But you've seen how many books I read so it's still very high. And I would have placed the early volumes higher.
