Behind every great bookstore is one very tired skeleton. What’s it like working in a busy Japanese bookstore? For Honda, it’s equal parts exhausting, hilarious, and deeply human—especially when you’re a skeleton in an apron. Based on the author’s real-life experiences, Skull-Face Bookseller Honda-san is a quirky workplace comedy about customer chaos, manga culture, and the joys (and pains) of retail life. With witty humor and heartfelt moments, it’s a love letter to book lovers and shop clerks everywhere.
