The Savior's Book Cafe Story in Another World (Manga) Vol. 1

Saving the world from monsters with all-powerful magic seems fun when you're young, but average thirty-something Tsukina, (one of this world saviors,) would rather spend her days practicing high level magic, reading books and drinking tea, nestled away in a beautiful quiet book café. And when her first (and only) customer, the handsome Knight Captain Il, another bookworm, comes by daily, why would she want to leave? The only problem is when another savior shows her young age and doesn't want to fulfill the duties that come with the title, will Tsukina be forced to reveal her secret as a savior to save her new home? I absolutely love this series! With just the first book in, I'm already hooked! I like how it's told from seemingly dual perspectives between Tsukina and Il, it has the atmosphere of a novel in that regard, which brings you even more into this world. Granted, it should be noted that this series was originally a novel and got adapted as a manga, which is probably where that feeling comes from. Everything from the characters, their personalities and design, and the beautifully detailed artwork of the world and the book café is absolutely stunning! There's even minor down-to-earth details, like paying for a meal at the café, that really grounds the fantasy to make the story feel real. I cannot wait to dig into this already-know-its-too-short 5 volume series.
