Recs if you like Lab Girl...

All of his picks since 2008, both summer reading lists and yearly round-ups.

Non-fiction that focuses on plants. Grow that brain🌻

Raw, inspiring stories from trailblazing women who broke barriers in labs, fields, and academia. A blend of triumphs over sexism, groundbreaking discoveries, and the human side of scientific pursuit.

The perfect biology book blends informative science and an interesting writing style. This ideal blend is hard to find and I’m thankful every time. I hope you like these, too!

This list is full of women who solve problems, break rules, run experiments, ask inconvenient questions, and generally refuse to stay in the lanes they were assigned. Fiction and non-fiction, from romance to history. Welcome to the nerdy, brilliant chaos.

These are books I have personally read and will add to this list as I make my way through my TBR. I'm a scientist myself so subject matter definitely has some bias.
