Memoirs of a Geisha. . .the BOOK!!!!!!!!

Jan 04, 2006 10:51

I finally saw the movie Memoirs of a Geisha last night. It took me only two days to read the 400-page book, because I simply could not put it down. The book opens up an enchanting world without endlessly clinging onto setting detail. For instance- I get bored very easily when I have to read pages and pages of rolling hills, slight breezes through ( Read more... )

do you have a favorite book?

It's funny that you would ask that. lol Books to me are like music. I have favorite books in various genres. For instance, Memoirs of a Geisha has become my favorite historical fiction. 1984- George Orwell is my favorite sci-fi. Frankenstein is my favorite horror. The Firm- John Grisham is my favorite mystery. The Autobiography of Malcom X is my favorite autobiography. John Adams- David McCullough is my favorite biography. Steal this Book!-Abbie Hoffman is my favorite nonfiction. Lol um favorite classic novel is Pride and Prejudice- Jane Austin

But I basically like everything from Abbie Hoffman and everything from John Grisham. I don't really like sci-fi, but I love the various Star Wars books.

How about you? Wow I didn't think that anyone would read my book review, lol.

man, I have got to read The Firm. I have it, but I'm embarrassed to say I never got around to reading it after I bought it. I've read The Client, though, that was really good. That's really awesome how you have such varied tastes...

My favorite book of all time is The Catcher in the Rye. I like about a billion others, too, but that's my very favorite. Thanks for asking!

no thank YOU for asking. the Client is awesome. I'm now in the process of reading The Broker. But The Firm is by far the best. LOL I suppose I am a little biased to liking John Grisham books because I'm pre-law.
