\n"Iona Iverson's Rules for Commu ting " by Clare Pooley.
\n"Nobody ever talks to strangers on the tra in. It's a rule. But what would happen if they did? From the New York Time s bestselling author of The Authenticity Project\, a heartwarming novel ab out unexpected friendships and the joy of connecting. Every day Iona\, a l arger-than-life magazine advice columnist\, travels the ten stops from Ham pton Court to Waterloo Station by train\, accompanied by her dog\, Lulu. E very day she sees the same people\, whom she knows only by nickname: Impos sibly-Pretty-Bookworm and Terribly-Lonely-Teenager. Of course\, they never speak. Seasoned commuters never do. Then one morning\, the man she calls Smart-But-Sexist-Manspreader chokes on a grape right in front of her. He'd have died were it not for the timely intervention of Sanjay\, a nurse\, w ho gives him the Heimlich maneuver. This single event starts a chain react ion\, and an eclectic group of people with almost nothing in common except their commute discover that a chance encounter can blossom into much more . It turns out that talking to strangers can teach you about the world aro und you--and even more about yourself"-- Provided by publisher.
