Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I read this book on the recommendation of my sister. All I can say is, "WOW!"

Based in the 1960's, Elizabeth Zott is a research scientist who is setting out to prove that women shouldn't tolerate hiding behind the men that seem to run the world. She's determined to make a name for HERSELF and not let anyone else take credit for it.

When she falls in love with world renowned scientist Calvin Evans, she lets him know right away that she's not interested in marriage. A tragic accident leaves Elizabeth with a gift she never asked for and doesn't quite know what to do with.

Faced with many life decisions and still trying to pave her own way, Elizabeth breaks down barriers in some unconventional ways, even going against herself at times.

Supper may be at six but the real fun is on at Six-Thirty!! :)
