KOReader, from the website, solves the issue of ePubs on the Lifebook Mars. It is the cheapest 7.8" / 8" eink here with Android and Playstore. The built in reader is good on autocrop of scanned PDFs. The BT keyboard and necklace BT stereo earbuds work well. Kobo, Audible and Kindle apps from Playstore work and all apps so far except Playbooks still work after install when the Google Framework is disabled. Playstore audio, ebooks and comics work when the Google Framework is enabled.
If you don't need audio, Playstore, Kindle App, BorrowBox or tricky PDFs, then the 7" Kobo Libra is still best value. But the Mars is cheaper than the Kobo Forma by about €50 here.
I use Lithium for ebooks and Xodo for PDFs on the 10" LCD Tablet. I'd still only read and annotate ePubs that don't need an app on the Libra.
