Review:

I joined a new book club this year and the ladies voted for Lessons In Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus for our first read! Alas, this would be a re-read for me. I read this book already two years ago when it came out. No matter; I do remember enjoying it immensely.

How did it hold up? This time, I gave it four stars. I enjoyed it a bit more the first time round!

Here’s why you should check it out:

I mainly get disappointed with romance novels in general but sometimes I hit the jackpot with a good one!
