    Having re-read the book in recent past while waiting to watch the movie, i find it again to be a pretty moving book that is structured pretty well - a worthwhile read of a journey into a geisha home and then into a relationship.

    I can't think of a way to thematically improve it without changing the tone of the novel.

    the book was fairly simple to read and i finished it in a few days. the ending couldve been better but it would have changed the basis of the story.
    honestly, i have yet to watch the movie.
    The best part of believe is the lie.

    it was pretty creepy though how she fell in love with a guy three times her age or similar...
