Finished “Memoirs of a Geisha”

Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur GoldenI finished another book last night, one I had actually purchased rather than checking out of the library! LOL, what an oddity for moi. 😀 I finished “Memoirs of a Geisha” by Arthur Golden. I had been wanting to read it for a while, before I rented the movie, so now I’m done and I’m ready to rent the DVD. It was a good book, not super-fantastic, but I did enjoy it and am glad I read it. It was very rich in detail and it is obvious that the author researched that period in Japan and the way of the geisha extensively for this book. I’m sure the movie is going to be breathtakingly beautiful in its own way.

For the record, that makes #41 for me so far this year, with a total of 14,568 pages read. Up next for me is the first book (“Moonlight on the Mill Pond”) in the Tucker Mills trilogy, a set of books by Christian author Lori Wick. My mother-in-law kindly brought me the first two last weekend, and I want to read them and return them to her in a timely fashion. I hope they are good; I’m looking forward to reading them! Check back in a few days to see 🙂

    I read that book a while back when I was in a book club. I enjoyed it, but actually have no desire to see the flick. I am always disappointed. LOL

    I still haven’t read or seen Geisha……

    I haven’t read the Tucker Mills Trilogy, but I do love Lori Wick-if they are anythign like her other books they will be great!

    ‘have not read the book, but the movie truly was “breathtakingly beautiful”…I thoroughly enjoyed it!

    I think I am going to add that to my booklist. I wasn’t sure that I wanted to read it or see the movie for that matter.
