Just what the heck is a light novel anyway? A light novel or "ranobe" is usually a short novel containing manga-style illustrations (especially on the cover!). Many light novels are either adapted into or adaptations of anime and manga works, with similar genres and themes found in both anime and manga. Look for them in the teen paperbacks and sometimes on the teen fiction shelves!
