In a man's world, one woman is fighting to continue her groundbreaking research and gain her seat among the great minds in her field. Unfortunately, she is repeatedly degraded and dismissed by mentors and colleagues who see her as nothing more than a gorgeous waste of space. Things change, however, when she meets a champion and falls in love. Their chemistry is undeniable, but so is their inevitable tragedy.
Our baddie of the beakers? Chemist Elizabeth Zott.

Remember: Both sides of the field aim to win, but one team has a better system. Stop making goals and start changing your habits. Atomic Habits is yet another self-help book telling us we're not the problem while assuring us that we are most definitely the problem. Its pages offer practical guidance and real-life anecdotes to illustrate that new habits make new results.

One girl is living in a world surrounded by death. Despite the chaos and the pain around her, she has one thing keeping her afloat, books. She steals them and has learned to read with the help of a loving, artistic foster father, but this story isn't about sadness. It's about color, life, and the people who paint our world.

◽️◽️◽️◽️◽️◽️ An heir and a spare: One son, protected future king, and the other a dense, drug-using recluse, destined for failure - that is, if we are to believe the press. In the best-selling memoir of all time, a high-ranking member of the royal family gives us an inside look into the world he was born into and ultimately left for his sanity and health.

Tired of waiting for Season 4 to start? Head over to YouTube to watch our video podcast featuring Spare by Prince Harry. It's available now: https://youtu.be/OXCf8CaUJ2Q.
Hate watching YouTube? All audio episodes will begin next Thursday. Until then, we're ecstatic to share the shows still living rent-free in our heads. Here's a favorite from our archives.
Rockwell tried to tell us: A dystopian novel that becomes more evocative as reality mirrors its bleak fiction, 1984 is a vision of a world controlled by a totalitarian regime where not even your thoughts are safe. Is your cell phone watching you, or are you watching it? Are your neighbors spying on you for their political leader's advantage? Does the government own Twitter? Of course, the answer to all of these questions is yes, and this book explains how it all started. Before we dive into 1984, we'll discuss how to keep your privacy as safe as possible today.

As always, before discussing this week's book, we discuss a theme inspired by the book. This week's theme is The Power of Traveling Abroad. Then, on to our story: Many have their opinions about him. But this is his story told in his own words through a series of uninhibited conversations with one of the most influential authors of his time. This is the story of Malcolm Little, who became Malcolm X.

ReLIT: Born a Crime by Trevor Noah

Who raised you? The assumption is that our families shape who we become, but do our friends have more of an influence than we realize? In his autobiographical tale of being born and raised under apartheid in South Africa, Trevor Noah praises the people who gave him the vision and tools to make his path. He also paints the picture of his mother as a courageous visionary ahead of her time. Before diving into this heartwarming story, we discuss family vs. environment, which significantly influences our lives.
This is LIT Society.
