I read this a few years back and loved it. I don't remember a lot of the details but I remember being blown away by the book and having one heck of a book hangover after I was done reading it.
Oh wow, I actually own this one from the sale on Humble Bundle a few years back. Time to dig in at some point next month maybe (can make it my walking listen Text to Speech). =)

When her brother Hiroki disappears after a violent altercation with school bullies, the young Yuriko finds a magical book in his room. The book leads her to another world where she learns that Hiroki has been possessed by a spirit from the Book of Heroes. She visits the magical Nameless Land, where she is told how to save her brother, and is sent back to Earth with a young monk named Sora and the magical book, now a mouse named Azu. Yuri has to piece together the mystery of Horiko, and has a library of powerful magic books at her disposal to do so!
