Iona Iverson’s Rules for Commuting by Clare Pooley. Nobody talks to strangers on the train. It’s a rule. But what would happen if they did? Every day Iona travels by train. Every day she sees the same people, known only by nickname: Impossibly-Pretty-Bookworm and Terribly-Lonely-Teenager. Of course, they never speak. Seasoned commuters never do. One morning, the man she calls Smart-But-Sexist-Manspreader chokes right in front of her. He’d have died were it not for the intervention of nurse Sanjay. This event starts a chain reaction, and this group of people with nothing in common discover that a chance encounter can blossom into much more. It turns out that talking to strangers can teach you about the world around you--and even more about yourself.
Laranda says: “A lovely read, very believable characters who established a network of friends across generations and classes, it was so touching how everyone stepped up to save each other when it was needed despite their varied differences.”
