Review of last volume by OmnivoraciousBookwyrm
It is with a wistful heart I review the final novel of Ascendance of a Bookworm, one of the many reasons I decided to don the nickname ‘Bookwyrm’ when I started my blog. I’ve been…
AoB chapters clustered by word similarity.

TL;DR: All chapters are clustered using the lemmatized word frequencies (color). Then, they are then plotted in a way such that chapters with similar word frequency signatures are put closer to each other, and vice versa.
Basically, the plot shows the relationship of the chapters: how close they are to one another. For example, the bottom right mostly involves commoners, no books, no magic. The top left is very different, all chapters there involve nobles, magic, and Myne now has access to books or the library to some extent. The bottom left mostly includes the end of Part 5, the war, the gods, and the Book. It is very different from the commoner time, but also not quite as peaceful as the time in the Royal Academy of top left. The chapters from the same volume aren't necessarily clustered together, either. For example, the Epilogue of P5V12 is a lot

Information on
Sensei's newest blog post has some information on P5V12.
There will be tons of added chapters from Rozemyne pov. So much that the book won't fit any SS chapters which is quite a lot, as the final volume will be half new content. Prologue will be Ferdinand pov and epilogue will be Lutz pov (which was also the last chapter of the WN).
It's both nice and a shame. Nice because Rozemyne pov is always interesting and it is going to be nice to get more of that. A shame, because the SS chapters are usually very good and give a different perspective to events. Let's hope we will also get other perspectives in a later volume that focuses on short stories, so we'd get the best of both worlds.
First look on prologue
How do you hope that will expand the story from the WN?
P5V12 will begin with Memories chapters of the WN, so there will only be eight WN chapters to cover before the end of the story. This will lead to about two thirds of P5V12 being original content written for the LN. What kind of chapters do you hope P5V12 will bring with itself?
My personal biggest hope is that we will get an Elvira pov of the engagement ceremony. I want her to explain more about the words Ferdinand used to reply to Rozemyne's proposal as well as analyze Rozemyne's proposal.
Another thing that I hope to see is getting info about at least some of the nobles that will work as Rozemyne's retainers in the future. She will need quite a lot of new retainers now that she is an Aub and she brought rather few from Ehrenfest. She only has three scholars and two attendants with her, and that will not be enough in the slightest.
It would be fun to see some of the archduke conference during which Rozemyne is officially appointed as Aub Alexandria. "I am the precedent" and all th
