Book Recommendation - memoirs of a geisha

I know that I am probably a decade behind the times but I just read "Memoirs of a Geisha" and I loved it! As literature it is only good - the plot a little too neat and many characters a little too simple. However, whatever "Memoirs" is lacking as a novel is balanced by the information it contains. Of course, I haven't done any fact-checking, but what an interesting look into a world I knew nothing about - the world of the Kyoto geisha in WWII Japan!
