Lessons in Chemistry
A love story kicks off this incredible debut novel that you’ve probably already heard of, and for good reason! Elizabeth Zott, an incredibly endearing and quirky scientist, meets a rather famous scientist, Calvin Evans, and they are a match made in heaven. An event occurred that made her a single mother in 1960s California with all the trappings of that time—which made it difficult for a woman like Elizabeth to be taken seriously or to be taken any way other than advantage of. She somehow accidentally becomes the host of a television cooking show, which she uses as her platform to tell women the truth subliminally: They are smart, capable, and powerful no matter what the men in the room want them to think. Let me just say this: If you love an unforgettable heroine following her singular vision as she marches to the beat of her own drummer, this will delight you to no end.
