Yes, it would probably make in into my top 50 books if I were to make a list. The only slightly annoying thing was finding out that none of it was true. Oh well, and it's Geisha by the way.

Is this a really good book? I've heard a lot of different things about it and am wondering if I should read it or not. I had a couple of freinds read it and they said it was pretty good, but I'm still not sure if I should give it a try.

Yeah the movie was soo godd, and I'm reading the book now, not as good as the movie, but it gives a onger storyline. Memoirs of a Geisha is based on true events, but I don't think the actual story is real.

Really really really really liked the book~<3 But, have yet to see the movie.

I didn't realize it wasn't really real until the end, so the whole time I'm thinking "damn, this girl went through a LOT. She's really freaking awesome!"

And then I read the last page and go... "Well CRAP I feel stupid."
The intro was written as though it were real. Like how he was saying he listens to the tapes and sometimes couldn't believe Chiyo/Sayuri wasn't around anymore.

So.. uh. No I am not posting in a dead topic, what gives you that idea. >_>

The book is really good but the movie isnt as good. So much of it has been cut off and it really annoyed me, but thats just the way movies are. The ending was too make believe though, I mean it was soo fairytale like. How is it that everything all works out just like that? Life isnt made this way.
