With the untimely death of third-generation bookseller Emon Koumoto, a small Tohoku town loses its last bookstore. On the eve of its closing sale, however, high schooler Musubu Enoki shows up out of nowhere claiming that the late owner had entrusted him with all the texts in the shop! As patrons come from far and wide to say their goodbyes to the store during its last week of operation, Musubu uses his ability to converse with books to reunite people with their most treasured tomes. But can these nostalgic, interconnected encounters lead him to the truth behind Emon’s demise?

A BOOK’S LOVE FOR ITS READER IS BOUNDLESS... Musubu Enoki is an ordinary high schooler with an extraordinary ability-he can hear the voices of books. When he happens to notice one lost and crying, the young man sets out to reunite a children’s classic with its original owner. Musubu leaves no page unturned in his quest to assist tomes of all sorts, including “The Surgery Room” by classic Japanese author Kyoka Izumi. But can this advocate for books really make their dreams come true...? Find out in this bibliomystery you won’t want to put down!

For self-styled "book girl," third-year high school student Tohko Amano, being the head of the literary club is more than just an extracurricular activity with minor perks. It's her bread and butter . . . literally! Tohko is actually a literature-gobbling demon, and instead of the less palatable option of water-soaked bread, she opts to munch on torn out pages from all kinds of stories. But for Tohko, the real delicacies are handwritten stories. And to satisfy her gourmet tastes, she's employed (aka. browbeaten) one Konoha Inoue, an underclassman who has retreated from writing novels after his experiences with getting published at an early age. So day in and day out, Konoha scribbles away to satisfy Tohko's appetite. But when, one day, another student comes knocking on the literary club door to seek advice on writing love letters, will Tohko discover a new kind of delicacy to whet her voracious appetite?

"Hey! There are pages missing in this book!"One day Tohko borrows a book from the library, but there are pages missing--sliced right out of it. There's no way the Book Girl, who loves books so much that she devours them, is going to stay silent about this! Caught up in Tohko's rampage, Konoha and his classmate Akutagawa are even forced (though they have no idea why) to perform a play for the school's culture fair. But Tohko and Konoha glimpse the darkness in his classmate's heart and of the madness that has driven him into a corner. A soul stands immobilized, bound up by the mistakes of the past. Will the Book Girl be able to set it free?
