Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus

medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes

5.0

Captivating, heart wrenching in the best of ways. Few books balance so well the personal development of characters as well as a riveting plot, even one filled a with a well paced mystery unraveling. As hard as it is to read some of the struggles of Elizabeth Zott, the author never falls too far into pessimism- rather she shows what real goodness and hope look like when they shine through a few people. I would recommend to any reader.
