I waited a long time for this book. It is SO popular right now and on everyone's "best" list. Barnes and Noble named it the Book of the Year. I really enjoyed it!
It's an easy ready, and entertaining, but brings to mind life for my mom while I was growing up. Granted, she had no career aspirations, or at least not that I was aware of, but if she had, she would have faced what Elizabeth Zott did in this tale.
From Bas Bleu | Books & Gifts for Avid Readers
This funny, poignant, and fiercely inspiring novel revolves around Elizabeth Zott—a brilliant scientist, devoted mother, and kind and complex human. Rational and uncompromising, Zott cares not for convention, nor for coddling male egos…but it's the 1960s (not to mention she's a single mom who lost the love of her life), so things aren't always easy for her. Lessons in Chemistry offers several infinitely lovable characters (including a wonderfully wise dog named 6:30) and a propulsive story line that will have you cheering, even through Zott's most difficult challenges.
