Short Story Collection
This is a collection of six short stories published in 花とゆめ between 2014 and 2016, with one short story unique to this publication. All take place in the Skip Beat universe, and all illustrations are done by the original mangaka, 仲村佳樹. The majority of of these stories are from Kyoko's POV, and generally follow a Love Me assignment, ranging from appearing on a cooking TV show (see cover) to participating in a mascot costume competition. They're short, they're cute, and if you're a fan of Skip Beat, will likely get a smile or a squee out of you. There's unfortunately little/no furigana given, but the language, excepting showbiz terms, is very simple.
