Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus

Did not finish book. Stopped at 32%.
Too heavy/sad and unrealistic, I couldn't get into it at all. I started it because it was supposed to be light-hearted and funny, but in just the first third of the book there was a graphic rape, a suicide caused by homophobia, and the death of a loved one. Definitely not the light-hearted story I was looking for. I tried to stick with it but I had to stop when the dog became a narrator and was communicating with an unrealisticly developed fetus.
