We need more Elizabeths, Harriets, Mads, Frasks (reformed), and Parkers in the world -- women supporting women -- people helping people -- animals supporting animals. Do you have any plans for a sequel?
Bonnie Garmus
Not right now. I'm one of those people who thinks it smarter to leave readers wanting more rather than overstaying my welcome.

Absolutely loved Lessons In Chemistry. Thanks for writing such a great book! Elizabeth Soot very much reminds me of Jenny Fields, John Irving's iconic character Garp's mother. Such a no-nonsense straight forward, yet endearing, character. Did you draw any inspiration from Jenny Fields?

Bonnie Garmus:
Your book was rich and full. It felt like you put everything you had into the book. You put it all out on the table (the kitchen table?) I wonder how you write another book that is so very full? I know that is a question that you probably can't answer. This book was magnificent. Thank you. (And gosh I wish with all my heart that you and I would get trapped in an elevator and we could just talk for hours...)
