Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus
Elizabeth Zott is a Chemist in the early 1960s trying to get the male establishment to taker her seriously but they refuse because she is not a man. She falls in love with another Chemist. They get adopted by a dog. Through circumstances, she has to host a daily cooking show where she becomes an unlikely star despite the best efforts, again, of the male establishment who think they know better.
I loved this book. I'm not doing it justice in my description. It is a simple story really well told. It's sad and it's funny and I wish there was more of it. It is one of those books that makes you sad half through it because you know soon the book will end.
I can't say it's a Doom book but it is a very good book. Yes, it's the one the new Brie Larson TV show is based on. Hopefully, the show is half as good as the book.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
