Elizabeth Lott is a chemist. She is a single mother who is the most beloved star of a cooking show called "Supper at Six." Her unusual approach to cooking "one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodium chloride" proves revolutionary. Elizabeth is not just teaching women to cook, she's daring them to change the status quo. This is a laugh-out-loud funny book that will keep you in stitches until the end. It has unique characters that are easy to relate to. Bonnie Garmus' writing is very engaging and has a lot of emotional substance. I look forward to reading Bonnie's next book. If you love books that are funny and emotional, then you will love this book. I highly recommend this book.
