SUMMARY:Afternoon Book Discussion
DESCRIPTION:This month’s selection is Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus.  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.  \nBut 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.   \nLaugh-out-loud funny\, shrewdly observant\, and studded with a dazzling cast of supporting characters\, Lessons in Chemistry is as original and vibrant as its protagonist.

SUMMARY:Evening Book Discussion
DESCRIPTION:This month’s selection is The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo by Taylor Jenkins Reid.  Aging and reclusive Hollywood movie icon Evelyn Hugo is finally ready to tell the truth about her glamorous and scandalous life. But when she chooses unknown magazine reporter Monique Grant for the job\, no one is more astounded than Monique herself. Why her? Why now? \nMonique is not exactly on top of the world. Her husband has left her\, and her professional life is going nowhere. Regardless of why Evelyn has selected her to write her biography\, Monique is determined to use this opportunity to jumpstart her career. \nSummoned to Evelyn’s luxurious apartment\, Monique listens in fascination as the actress tells her story. From making her way to Los Angeles in the 1950s to her decision to leave show business in the ’80s\, and\, of course\, the seven husbands along the way\, Evelyn unspools a tale of ruthless ambition\, unexpected friendship\, and a great forbidden love. Monique begins to feel a very real connection to the legendary star\, but as Evelyn’s story near its conclusion\, it becomes clear that her life intersects with Monique’s own in tragic and irreversible ways.
