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

This book was good, but wow was it repetitive! So many of her friends seemed exactly the same with the same lives and even tastes in furniture, it was hard to keep them straight. No wonder I felt this book dragged a bit, and I struggled to keep interested at times. I did have one thing I didn't get at all though, why would somebody who by her own admission didn't believe in God, or creationism, join a synagogue? Am I the only one with this question or did I just display my complete ignorance of the Jewish faith? I would appreciate and answer to this question if people wouldn't mind.
