The Thing about Prague: How I gave it all up for a new life in Europe's most eccentric city

It's good but...
But it's not exactly ABOUT Prague. It is about author desperately trying to find a place and work while living in Prague.
She expresses her increasing frustration with Czech (but not only Czech) bureaucracy, unfriendliness, unhelpfullness and rudeness and her desperation to find friends.
It is a very good read for what it is although I was hoping for a style and mood she introduced in her first book "Me, Myself and Prague" which was one of the best books about an expat trying to make it in a strange country.
On the other hand, I totally understand why she wrote it this way because it is true to the core and her experiences are priceless for anybody who's thinking about living in Czech Republic.
