Lessons in Chemistry Special Edition (Special)
Lessons in Chemistry Special Edition (Special) | Bonnie Garmus
9 posts | 8 read | 2 to read
An elegant, deluxe edition of the #1 New York Times bestseller--marking the 2nd anniversary of its publication--that will make the perfect gift or treat for yourself. Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out there is no such thing. But it's the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute take a very unscientific view of equality. When she finds herself unwed and pregnant, she's forced out, reluctantly taking a job as the host of the TV cooking show Supper at Six. But Elizabeth has no intention of sticking to the recipe. Instead, she teaches women what they're really made of - at the molecular level. And in doing so, dares them to change the status quo.

Great book! Aside from the blatant sexism, I really enjoyed this. Elizabeth may be considered harsh and abrasive by some, but I thought she was a great character!

#bookspinbingo - this was my #bookspin for this month & I got another bingo!
#pop25 - book with a happily single woman protagonist

Well this was totally unexpected!
I've seen this book around a lot but never really paid attention to it. Then I saw it was an Apple TV show, and being me I obviously decided to read the book first.
Not only was it something totally different and refreshing but it was really deep, and spoke to my heart in ways I didn't expect.
In conclusion I get the hype.

Texreader Good to hear. It‘s on my tbr list 2w
Suet624 I felt the same way - wasn‘t expecting much and was pleasantly surprised. 2w
Reggie My bookclub read this and there is this ONE GUY and I just kept thinking just pass man, just pass. It was the week of the election and I felt like we were in a women‘s trauma group. And that one guy says I don‘t think women have it that bad. And had we been in the streets these bookish women would have jumped him. The guy right after him-passed. lol I liked this book a lot.

Enchanted_Bibliophile @Reggie Some men can be so ignorant sometimes... I mean read the room 🫣 2w
Enchanted_Bibliophile @Suet624 I love books that surprise me like this. 💞 2w
Enchanted_Bibliophile @Texreader I'm sure you'll love it 2w
Suet624 @Reggie I mean, did he read the book? And if so, did she have it so easy? To imagine that having a baby, nursing a baby, working all day and returning to cook dinner, to go grocery shopping ... oh, forget it. I don't need to tell you. You're fully aware. This just pisses me off. That a man can't see what anyone other than him experiences. Grrr... 2w

Recommended by at least 2 friends. I am already overreacting to all the sexism at work (who has work in engineering and still been "mistaken" for the secretary will see why). I need to brace myself for the rest ;)

Tamra There is some maddening real sexism, but I enjoyed the story telling. 👍🏾 3mo

Watching Jeopardy from a few weeks ago, and I learned that this gentleman is the husband of Bonnie Garmus, who wrote Lessons in Chemistry. I may owe her an apology for saying that her characters didn‘t seem realistic. I can DEFINITELY picture this guy asking someone to pass the sodium chloride. 😜

1) Ranier cherries ... so hard to choose just one but their season is so short it feels like a real treat.

2) Loved the book and the show

Want to play @Gissy @PageShifter @Bookpearl

TheSpineView I don't think I have ever had a Rainier cherry. Hmmm... 4mo
Lesliereadsalot They‘re definitely the best cherries! Liked the tv series way more than the book. 4mo

“Whenever you start doubting yourself, whenever you feel afraid, just remember. Courage is the root of change and change is what we're chemically designed to.”

One of my favorites 🧡 ✏️

Do you remember the pencil scene??

My irl book club pick for September, the cover did not give me hope. And it was light - I started and finished it over the long weekend while also cataloging my library. But it was entertaining and will (maybe) give us something to talk about. So a soft pick.
