tuesdays with morrie- very lovely
michael moore books - good, funny points at times, but not too .. well written, i don't think. too much rhetoric. love his sense of humour though - and subject matter :)
geisha wise - let me know about this , i know "memoirs of a geisha" and "Geisha: A life" - the second one was quite pompous (although it's an autobiography) and unlikeable..though an easy read.
and the diary of anne frank is absolutely AMAZING, it's so beautiful.
