Bibliophile Princess
Synopsis
The story
Known as the Bibliophile Princess for her unquenchable love of books, Lady Eliana Bernstein wants nothing more than to shirk social duties in favor of retreating to the library. So, when the handsome Crown Prince Christopher promises to shield her from high-society drudgery in exchange for pretending to be his fiancée, she jumps at the chance to hide behind their sham relationship and read to her heart’s content (especially since he’s offered her access to the palace library). But much like the plot of her favorite novel, soon Eli’s feelings for the prince develop in unexpected ways, and she realizes she can’t always judge a royal book by its cover.

Quite Bland, Not Much To Take Away

Bibliophile Princess, aka "Shilling a Useless Mary Sue: The Anime" or "How NOT To Adapt a Light Novel."

Pretty to look at, but flat in story. Bibliophile Princess never reaches its potential. No depth and plot is meh.
