Lessons in Chemistry review youtu.be/B_SsJrZljQk?si=VUT0kZttfOzW01MK
Hi everyone! Following my completion and reviews of “Psyche and Eros” by Luna McNamara and “Lessons in Chemistry” by Bonnie Garmus, I was having some…mixed feelings. The books weren’t…bad, per se, but there WAS definitely one commonality between them that genuinely bothered me: how these two books approached the subject of feminism and applied this to their female protagonists, both of whom were pursuing stereotypically masculine goals, and the other characters and situations they were exposed to. So I made this video to expand on my thoughts which sprung out of last week’s reviews, articulate the issues I found, how the ways in which books like these handle feminism can actually be harmful to the cause, and what can be done from a storytelling standpoint to avoid these issues.
