Although I have visited Tokyo several times, I have never been to a host club and I didn't find the idea appealing either. However, Jonelle Patrick describes the world of those popular clubs in Kabukicho very skilfully and tactfully. The reader understands the situation of the workers of those places and gets an insight into a world unknown to most foreign visitors.
I liked the characters and I found the plot interesting and entertaining at the same time. This was my first book by the author but I feel hooked now to her Only in Tokyo series and I think I may end up reading all of them.
I strongly recommend this novel to fans of Japanese culture and to curious readers.
