Ascendence of a bookworm is the only good slice of life novel period. (written by an action/fantasy reader).

Just to clarify - is this COMMENT written by an action/fantasy reader or are you saying that "Ascendence of a Bookworm is the only good slice of life novel that was written by an action/fantasy reader"?

Personally, I prefer "vintage" slice of life stuff, like, oh, most of Dickens's works.

I like it sure... but it is far from the only good option.
How much slice of life have you actually read? If you need, I'm sure some people here have similar recommendations.

What even is slice of life really?
Stories that lack a central, overarching narrative or development. In a traditional story, the author takes the most interesting part of the protagonist's life and explores it through a narrative lens. In contrast, slice-of-life presents facets of life without necessarily trying to do anything with them or forming a cohesive storyline. Because of this structure, most slice-of-life works are rarely purely slice of life and mostly exists in combination with genres like romance and comedy.

You mean that mildly boring slice of life story that many people drop by chapter 20 is good!?!?.
