I loved this book I’m not gonna lie. I loved the way it was written, I loved the characters and the storyline everything! Completely heartbreaking in parts and I was so angry with the sex discrimination and abuse towards women, I did actually throw the book a few times! I don’t care what anyone says this is a 5-star read to me!! ❤️

This book covers so much. It's charming and sad and messy (in a good way). It's extremely relevant. During the 6 days I read it, I had 4 conversations on it that convince other people to read it. 

Sexism in the work place is still horrible and very much there, it's gotten better since Elizabeth Zott's time. But regardless this is an extremely relatable. I was beaming when Zott uplifted women and tried her best. 6:30 was charming and probably my favorite character. 

I however HATE this cover. I'm sure if you look it up, the author also said they didn't love it. Which is why I want to get a UK cover. I borrowed this book from the library, and I had to wait a WHILE for it. But it was so worth it. 

This is easily going to be one of my biggest summer read suggestions of this year.
