Loosely based on the real life addictions of her daughter, this novel follows Kristina, a junior in high school who tries methamphetamine for the first time while visiting her father for the summer. Written in free verse, this novel is often required reading, not only for high schools, but also drug court programs. Despite high praise and review, this book has been challenged and banned since it was first published.

2:30 PM, Eureka Library's Friday Afternoon Book Club, 'Lessons in Chemistry'2023-10-13T14:30:00Join this friendly and engaging book club, either in person or live on Zoom! Don't be put off by this book's pink and yellow 1960ish cover. Here's just one of the things Elisabeth Egan says about it in the New York Times Book Review - 'Feminism is the catalyst that makes [Lessons in Chemistry] fizz like hydrochloric acid on limestone. Elizabeth Zott does not have ‘moxie’; she has courage. She is not a ‘girl boss’ or a ‘lady chemist’; she’s a groundbreaker and an expert in abiogenesis...To file Elizabeth Zott among the pink razors of the book world is to miss the sharpness of Garmus’s message.' You may grind your teeth at the world Zott faces, and the choices handed to her - but then - watch her go!
