I listened to this on audible. I highly recommend it for a deeper experience. Fun characters, and our book club had a wonderful discussion about societal norms and women's rights over the years.

A great story about a female scientist set in the 1960s. Her challenges to overcome discrimination in the workplace and her grief over the loss of her husband resonated.
