5 stars, no questions asked. This book hit in all the right places. Elizabeth Zott is now in my mental index of favourite characters of all time. It’s a book about a scientist with a cooking show…but really it’s a book about deep love, persistence, inner strength, being dealt a bad hand, and doing the right thing anyway. Lessons in Chemistry will be hard to top this year.
