Have you ever read a book where you learned something surprising about history/science/culture?

Uuuuh The Saga of Tanya the Evil is basically all about war time supply chain logistics. I was not expecting to read so much about trains and socks

Thanks to light novels and anime I know more about Japanese myths and creatures than my own culture's. It's not even hyperbole. Even more so with food. And thanks to D-Genesis' random and unrelated rambling I know more about old condom packaging than I ever wanted to know.

Not a Japanese Light Novel, but "Project Hail Mary" taught me a lot about physics.
