Lady Elianna Bernstein's entire family loves to read, and they retain so much knowledge that they're considered a national resource. Despite that, they've always remained politically neutral… until Elianna agrees to pretend to become betrothed to the Kingdom's heir, keeping unwanted suitors away from the Prince and giving Elianna access to the Royal Library. But when she notices that Prince Christopher might be seeing another woman, Elianna realizes she may not be on the same page that she thought she was on concerning her part in this story.
Has she missed some important subtext? And if so, perhaps it's time for this avid reader to start changing her plot and write a new chapter in the saga of the Prince and the BILBLIOPHILE PRINCESS!

1968: a year of massive change and social upheaval. As science unleashes new miracles, the U.S. war in Vietnam approaches its zenith, and radical counterculture movements prompt a dawning generation to reevaluate almost every aspect of life.
While others protest and riot in the streets, a disfigured medical student in Japan faces a different battle, confronting the ethical challenges of a system torn between innovation, bureaucracy, and corruption. To fight from within risks Kuroo Hazama's own promising career as a surgeon, while another, darker, path draws him towards a world of illegal transplants, organized crime, and revolution.
At long last, the origins of Osamu Tezuka's legendary vigilante surgeon are unveiled in YOUNG BLACK JACK!

Becoming a farmer in a fantasy world was supposed to make up for Hiraku Machio's terrible previous life. However, his new life gets off to a rocky start when his reincarnation begins in a place called the Forest of Death. Although he has a new, stronger body and an all-powerful farming tool, his attempts at living an idyllic farm life are constantly interrupted by nuisances like lizardmen, dragons, and alcoholic slimes. And did we mention the beautiful vampire and angel who move in with him, or the elven refugees who just made Hiraku's forest their new home?
Okay, it may not be what Hiraku's always dreamed of, but at least he's a farmer, and that's all just part of his new FARMING LIFE IN ANOTHER WORLD!
