I just finished reading:
> 'Princess' by Jean ?? (I always forget names)
and > 'My Feudal Lord" - not very good in my opinion, but some excellent lines in it.

Not bad. Pretty annoying to read as a feminist - it's about a Saudi Arabian Princess where women in that country are both neither seen or heard. Honor killings are nomal and some stories are horrific. In this book, yes she's insanely wealthy, but that doesn't mean she can do anything with her life, except get married, have sons, and basically take up breathing space in the world. But the main chick in it is great. she's got this fierce personality so she constantly fights back at the men who hold her back. (LOL funny stuff she does to her a**hole brother Ali.)

Am about to start a book called "Memoirs of a Geisha".

I like books with autobiographies of different feminine cultures. Anyone suggest any??
