Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus

In 1952, Elizabeth Zott works as a chemist at the Hastings Research Institute, where she meets Calvin Evans, who was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Chemistry. They soon fall in love. Lessons in Chemistry recounts their relationship, the birth of their daughter, Madeleine, and the creation of the cooking show "Supper at Six" that Elizabeth becomes famous for. Filled with humor, quirkiness, and a main character who refuses to let society's rules hold her back, it's a unique read.
