Lessons in Chemistry

“Whenever you feel afraid, just remember. Courage is the root of change – and change is what we’re chemically designed to do.” Elizabeth Zott is not your typical 1960s woman – and Lessons in Chemistry is not your typical novel. Sharp, funny, and unexpectedly moving, this book follows a brilliant chemist who ends up hosting a cooking show that becomes a quiet revolution. A story about ambition, love, loss, and refusing to shrink yourself for anyone. 📖 Read this if you like: witty historical fiction, brilliant women breaking the rules, Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine, The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, or funny and moving book club picks.
