Advantages: you will never lose enthusiasm

Disadvantages: none

I actually got my hands on this book when i was in a rented serviced apartment where i had nothing much to do when my 9 month old son goes to sleep. So i just looked around and saw a bunch of books left by the owner for her tenants.How sweet right.
The cover as everyone will agree was catchy and so thought of looking into it. It was all about the girl on the cover, how she became a successful giesha, how she overcame her fate , realized her goal and went after it.
As i started reading until i finished i got the picture just like a real life incident until in the last page i read about how Mr Arthur Golden has wrote this fiction. I read the book without loosing enthusiasm at any point that at times i felt so sorry for the girl that i cried. The authors goal to touch a readers heart has been achieved.
Even though it is now in the motion pictures i like to watch these type of movies only after reading the original novel so that i can get the whole essence of the story.

Summary: Story describing the life of a beautiful but helpless girl realizing her goal put in a fantastic way
