Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus

I laughed, I cried. I love Elizabeth Zott. 

I also find it incredibly telling that this entire story happened during the Civil Rights Movement era and nary a word was spoken - waving Rosa Park's picture during a montage of Elizabeth's eccentricities on TV is not even scratching the surface. Disappointing, but not surprising.
