Books & Brews- Lessons In Chemistry

This is an event for people over the age of 21 and registration is encouraged!

Enjoy a local brew as we discuss Bonnie Garmus's Lessons In Chemistry. Here is a Google Books Summary: 

Chemist Elizabeth Zott is not your average woman. In fact, Elizabeth Zott would be the first to point out that there is no such thing as an average woman. But it’s the early 1960s and her all-male team at Hastings Research Institute takes a very unscientific view of equality. Except for one: Calvin Evans; the lonely, brilliant, Nobel–prize nominated grudge-holder who falls in love with—of all things—her mind. True chemistry results.

But like science, life is unpredictable. Which is why a few years later Elizabeth Zott finds herself not only a single mother, but the reluctant star of America’s most beloved cooking show Supper at Six. Elizabeth’s unusual approach to cooking (“combine one tablespoon acetic acid with a pinch of sodium chloride”) proves revolutionary. But as her following grows, not everyone is happy. Because as it turns out, Elizabeth Zott isn’t just teaching women to cook. She’s daring them to change the status quo.

Every month on the first Saturday we will meet to enjoy discussing a book and sample local brews. 

We will be sampling all types of Brews; Coffee, Teas, Beer, and Hard Ciders while discussing the book. 

This event is brought to you by the Lakewood Library Friends.
