    How to unlock Bookworm

    (MISSABLE)

    There are 34 books to read. Most are bought, others borrowed from the library, plus three earned from requests completed in mementos. Not all bookstores will have their full inventory at the beginning of the game; more are added when certain dates are passed or requirements are met. After the following paragraphs, a full list of books and their locations will be given.

    There are a few pieces of advice to give you if you are not following the Spreadsheet. Note that 11/17 is the last day to get a book from the Shujin Academy Library due to story happenings until 12/22. Also, read all the books in Jinbocho as soon as possible, as the last one is called Speed Reading, and as the title suggests, it’ll double the amount you read in one sitting. Finally, as stated in My Backyard, reading the books associated with a location, after the location has already been found, will not spend time. Because of this, save the location books for last as that will save time.

    As always with these trophies, these books are covered in the spreadsheet, so continue to follow that if you are following the roadmap. The list of books, with page amounts, is as follows:
