Stunningly great piece of work. Like The Queen’s Gambit, Lessons in Chemistry is a sadness for me as I am currently on Episode 7 and I assume that the story will end with no sequel. The only positive is that author Bonnie, looks amazingly fit and well and could easily write another “global phenomenon”, whereas Walter Tevis is no longer with us and there will be no sequel. However Walter did write a few other best sellers which I hope Bonnie will also achieve. There is just so much rubbish written and filmed or music that is terrible and produced, that stories like Bonnie’s and Walter’s are just so refreshing and engaging. An old man thanks you for your great writing and imagination. I will complete watching the TV show and I will then read the book - as I am sure the latter will be potentially better than the TV series - it has alway seemed like that to me anyway. ❤
One of the best books I've ever read! I laughed, cried and, at one point, even rolled my eyes! Not many books can elicit that kind of response. @@elizabethtracy4391
@@elizabethtracy4391 I am familiar with this book and its wholly-unlikable, malcontent of a main character who hates men, God, religion, and is yet herself perfect in every way or so she thinks, bashing the traditional 1950's culture and the women of that era. The assault early in the book is appalling and unnecessary, while the rest of it is less of a plot than a polemic. It's anything but a "light" read. Even highly progressive people have said it's way too preachy for them. That's saying something.
