This was such a fantastic book. I really enjoyed the character of Elizabeth Zott and the way she moved through the world. I simultaneously loved the story and was also infuriated with the era specific sexism and misogyny. It made me want to scream. All the characters were really well crafted, and I enjoyed it a lot. I will absolutely be checking out the show/movie on Apple. I think it'll be a lot of fun.
