Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus (feat: Beckie Hawkins!)

MBCer Suzanne told us to use our scientific method on Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus, a book which as of now has spent 38 weeks on the NYTs bestseller list. It looked like a romcom, it smelled like a romcom, and, dear listeners, spoiler alert, it WAS NOT a romcom! We are joined by photographer and occasional bad book reader Beckie Hawkins (@woodfieldphotography on Insta) who luckliy keeps us on track and provides the only valuable insights this entire episode.Mean Book Club is four ladies (UCB, BuzzFeed, College Humor, Impractical Jokers) who read, discuss and whine about NYT bestselling books that have questionable literary merit.
