Ahh. Memoirs of a Geisha is a good one! Did you have difficulty finishing it or just get distracted?

I think I started it and then the movie came out. The movie was so beautiful and I didn't want to compare it to the book. So I put the book down and then never came back to it.

Good idea. I hope you enjoy the book. I have been wanted to reread my copy. Maybe I can squeeze it in somewhere :)
