Whole minicart rendering process is explained clearly here https://mage2.pro/t/topic/905

Under checkout module, you have CustomerData/Cart.php folder which does the rendering of the cart items. Each items are rendered based on the product type.

So, for Example, if you want to modify configurable product, go to configurable product module CustomerData folder.

For simple products, you need to look into the checkout module CustomerData/DefaultItem.php doGetItemData() To load Custom attributes over there and pass it as additional JSON param, you can load the product obj and get the value

$objectManager = \Magento\Framework\App\ObjectManager::getInstance();
$productObj = $objectManager->get('Magento\Catalog\Model\Product')->load($product_id);
$short_desc = $productObj->getShortDescription();

You need to rewrite the Core modules to add your custom attribute values on minicart.

Try with

$item->getProduct()->getAttributeText('isbn_10');

$product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($item->getProductId())->getAttributeText('isbn_10');

$product = Mage::getModel('catalog/product')->load($item->getProductId())->getData('isbn_10');

You should override the getItems() function from that particular block to include the attribute you want to use with addAttributeToSelect(). Block is catalog/product_list_related.

public function getItems()
{
    return $this->_itemCollection;
}

Check the _prepareData() function in the same block and there you will see how attributes are selected.

protected function _prepareData()
{
    $product = Mage::registry('product');
    /* @var $product Mage_Catalog_Model_Product */

    $this->_itemCollection = $product->getRelatedProductCollection()
        ->addAttributeToSelect('required_options')
        ->setPositionOrder()
        ->addStoreFilter()
    ;

At some point you will find a hacky solution to load every product inside the loop and get the attribute you need from there. That is not a good idea, dont follow that advice if you want to have a decent performance.
