The small background commentary from side characters was much more chaotic than it seems to be in other manga. I also did not enjoy that one character kept trying to change the gender expression of another. Otherwise, the story was cute.

Based on the first volume, I'm not crazy about it, but it's all right and I don't mind trying the next volume or two to see if it gets better. A light comedy of class differences, where a poor scholarship student and a rich kids' academy ends up having to work off a debt for the school's host club (a group of good-looking guys who run a kind of exclusive teahouse/club where female students go to be professionally fussed over and charmed--socially and flirtatiously, not sexually). There's a lot of good-natured, teasing play on the club members' eccentricities and the poor kid becoming kind of like an exotic museum/zoo exhibit of How The Other Half Lives for all the rich students. As of yet there isn't really an overarching major storyline; it feels more episodic, like Seinfeld. I've heard this series has a devoted following, though, so I'll stick with it awhile and see if it develops.
*This book is counting as my "Graphic Novel" for Popsugar's 2015 reading challenge*
