I didn't want it to end. Fantastic story. Walking the actual streets in Kyoto made the book come to life for me.

Finally finished it after putting it down so many times over the last couple months or so. I did enjoy it and was enjoying it at the time but it's a heavy book for me personally, so I kept having to put it down. It ended the way I wanted it to. How she went about things some may not agree with, but I understand the why behind it. I watched the movie some years ago and decided to read the book when I saw it in the book store...Glad I picked it up. :-)

Es interesante, pero el que el autor haya manipulado tanto la historia y la cultura como lo hizo es tremenda mierda.

Such a well-written book that captivated you from the start. A classic love story. The movie is just as moving.
