All the small details about geisha life, their habits, the relationships, the rivalries--you get sucked into a world so foreign yet you feel like you've been there because of all the details put in by the author. But beyond the glamour it presents, it is still is about the story of person who's not really different from anybody else; she's just like the rest of, struggling to get by, and she made the most of what life has brought her.

I also recommend the series Hard Cash by British writer Kate Cann. It's actually a trilogy (with Shacked Up and Speeding as follow-ups) and it basically follows the life of a teenage British lad who always finds himself in a rut. A good read for the young adult set, it's very realistic plot about teenage life will make you relate to everything the main character goes through.

Megan heard someone metion the book 'Memoirs of a Geisha' it got her attention so she joined the two girls that were chatting about it..."Yes yes, it was a fabuluos book and I do agree that it's strange a man from Tenesse can write in ther persona of a female Geisha that lives in Japan! It's very interenting how idffernet our cultures are!" she said please that someone eles had read the book on a second note she said, "two other wnderful romance stories are called 'The Truth about Forever' and 'This lullaby' both are by Sarah Dessen they are awsome books if you are into romances!!!!!But if you are into more mysteries I would read 'Vanishing Acts' by Jodi Picoult!! It was great it's about how her father all these years has tld her her momther died but it turns out he kidnaped her at a young age even though he is her real father!!! it's a great book!!!!!Also 'The DaVinici Code' was uh-mazing!"
