Memoirs of a Geisha

beautiful writing but it just dragged on and it just wasn't enjoyable. The plot was boring.
Reading about men making sexual comment towards a young teen for most of the book was hard to read, i know its true and should be written about but it was just constant and made me feel repulsed from this book.

I also have a huge problem with a certain paragraph but i'll have to type it all out later as i just got my nails done and can't type properly lol. I'm definitely questioning why the author wrote this book... very bad vibes from him.

At first I thought, the topic of interest of this book was so misogynistic to the core, that I'd have to wash it down with some Atwood or Woolf. But then I realized this is just women ‘manipulating' men for financial gain; that men were just clients, and now I'm comfortable.
This book is dripping metaphors all over. It is beautiful, that at the low points in the novel, they were the flimsy rope I caught on to, and prevented this from falling into dnf.
The first half is beautiful, has a strong storyline, puts us inside the head of the lead character. We feel what she feels, hopes what she hopes and it hurts when she gets hurt. Somewhere along the lane she abandons us; leaving us in some corner of her tea party room, to watch her from afar. This didn't make me feel like dropping the book though. The whole thing was like a TV drama, with jealousy, passion, betrayal (and plenty of horny men); just more sophisticated and prettier with all the cute little metaphors.
