Bonnie Garmus "Lessons in Chemistry"

Set in the early 1960s, Lessons in Chemistry follows the journey of Elizabeth Zott, a brilliant and determined chemist trying to establish herself in a male-dominated scientific world. Despite her talent and intelligence, Elizabeth faces constant discrimination and obstacles in her career. Her life takes an unexpected turn when she finds herself as the host of a wildly popular cooking show, Supper at Six. But rather than simply teaching housewives how to cook, Elizabeth uses her platform to educate women about science, self-worth, and the power of critical thinking—challenging societal norms and inspiring change in the process.
