Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus

dark funny lighthearted reflective medium-paced

5.0

I loved this book! I really enjoyed the way the author highlighted female gender stereotypes (especially in that time period) along with neurodivergent characters. Even though it had some heavier topics, there was a certain lightness to the story with quirky humor and Six-thirty. I really enjoyed the way the main character viewed motherhood and how that view evolved throughout the story. The way the author presented the patriarchal society and problematic men while highlighting the good men was also well balanced. I'm looking forward to a reread of this one soon.
