Anyone read Club 9?

I discovered this manga, Club 9, by accident. It is written and drawn by Makoto Kobayashi and is the story of a country girl that moves to the big city ( simplified plot) The creator has found some fame with the manga, Where's Michael?" about a cat...but I find this one to be better. I prefer my manga to be based in reality...like The Kindaichi Files or Get Backers or Remote. I really do not go for the Sci-fi ones....
Club 9 is wonderfully drawn and the main character acts a bit like Lucille Ball..She is clumbsy and falls down sewer holes and is haunts by a ghost wearing a track suit. She works as a "hostess" in a place called Club 9 to make extra money and gets into all sorts of adventures. The scene wearing she is being pursued by an admirer in her apartment building had me gasping for air it was done so well.
Little things like the way a character's shirt pattern is drawn or is draped show the mastery of this artist hand.
I know little installment are in Manga Blast each month and I only have Volumes one and two by Dark Horse Comics..but I recommend you to try it out. Or at least flip through it if you see a copy.

Thanks,

Ratt
