Madame Sadayakko

I have nothing to read tonight. I have one shitty book, Madame Sadayakko: The Geisha Who Bewitched the West by Lesley Downer (New York: Gotham Books, 2003) and I read to p.65 but I can't stand it anymore.
It is based on the life of a geisha so it's a historical novel. I'd have rather read a book committed to fiction without the waffling. I don't like it because Lesley tip toes alot so much of it is Sadayakko probably felt like this or thought about that. Too much speculation. Just say it for crying out loud!
You might wonder why the last 3 books are Japanese in theme. It's because I bought them for $5 each at this egghead convention a while back. Don't worry, I don't own anymore unread books.
I must stop being so lazy and get myself to the school's library. (I have $90 fine at the public library so that's not an option). I gotta get back to the list.
