First and foremost: If you like "I'm aspider so what?" I heavily suggest to give this one a try. The way the protagonist narrates their inner monologue has the same vibes.Very vague spoilers ahead and two spoilers from a few chapters in but nothing major.You more or less get to experience a story about a plant-otaku using her knowledge of plants to outsmart and kill enemies while her wish to be left alone and photosynthesize all day doesn't get granted at all. Unlike a lot of Reincarnation Novels, this one makes both reincarnations important to the plot. She is able to absorb abillities of other plants and due to her plant knowledge from Japan she can use this at full advantage against enemies. And while she wants to close her book when she was a human saint, she gets hunted down by her past in later chapters. Occasionally, you will have chapters revolving around characters who met her and see the same scene from a different perspective. Downsides is definetly the slow developing story in the first major arc (Up to chapter 60), after that the pacing gets way faster and better.If you're learning japanese, go give this a try, except for the complex plant knowledge words the japanese is probably the simplest one I have ever seen in a novel.Trigger warning: She produces nectar from her mouth, leading to situations where I assume the author has some grool kink, but those scenes are not common and usually short.
