Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus

emotional inspiring fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

I'm sure Elizabeth Zott would be super mad that being a woman in STEM has only gotten marginally better since the time period when the book takes place. At least the next time a male coworker gets all faux-concerned about me being "sick" because I didn't wear makeup to a meeting I'll think of her and be able to channel my rage into something productive that would make her proud.
