Read Harder 2019: A book of manga.

A young girl gets her heart broken, and decides the best method of revenge is becoming a celebrity more famous than the guy (her best friend) who broke her heart. Fantastic characters, a great plot, and show-biz! I can't wait to read more! ( )

WOW! You know those little books that end up surprising you…? when after a few pages you think you know where that shit is going? And then BANG you get a 180 no scope right in your face! That’s what this little manga did to me! it all start with this girl Kyoko, you get drop in what you think is going to be a romance story. She left school, she abandoned her life, she gave up everything in life for her boyfriend… the only problem is that her boyfriend is one of those Diva dudes who only care about themselves… and there was I thinking that this shit was going to be about the power of love over coming everyting! And making her boyfriend realize what an ass he was… but then one day she walks into her boyfriend while he is having a conversation with his agent… and he is bragging on how he used her to pay for all his expensive taste… how all he had to do to get himself a slave was ask her to come with her, how she have to have 2 jobs to pay for his fancy apartment and his food!! What an ass!!!!! Then right there… something beautiful happened… Kyoko heard everything!!!! And that’s when that little manga turned into something beautiful!! It was not the romantic crap I thought It was going to be… oh hell no! this is a psycho bitch revenge story!!! Like Kill Bill! Kyoko goes into a rampage trying to get him and fuck him up…. But she can’t touch him cuz he is a famous Pop star and has security around him… so what she does? She decides to become a pop star herself in order to get her revenge!!! (I know it don’t make sense! But since when what psycho bitches do makes sense?) and its just mad fun for there on! She does voodoo, she stalks talent scouts, she shows amazing knife skills! Hell she even out runs a taxi in a bike while chasing one scout! Bitch is crazy! Maybe I’m reading between the lines… or reading more than what there actually is to it… but this is one sick little manga! I’m seriously looking forward to read the rest of this series! I’m impressed with it!!! highly impressed! ( )

  • Skip Beat is a great manga and I would recommend it to anyone who likes an awesome story! I'm ADDICTED to it! It makes me laugh and it's so well written that you get a really good grasp of the characters. I can't wait until the next one comes out!!! Another manga that is kind of similar to Skip Beat! Is The One, which is another addictive manga.

Skip Beat Manga Vol 1 English

The characters in Skip Beat! (and there's a plethora of them) are all so wonderfully made that they make the story interesting when the romance in the story develops slowly. Unlike most, Skip Beat!' S man protagonist is not ultimately focused on love. I fact, she refuses to allow herself to be in love until about 120+ chapters in.
