Welcome to Litsy!

What a fun book. Strangers on a Train if Maeve Binchy wrote it.

Definitely a "don't judge a book by its cover" pick for me! Based on the title and cover alone, I never would have picked this up...but I'm so glad I did. It was a delightful read, and a needed lift from my recent run of disappointing books.

This was a great read. Such lovely characters and Iona is wonderful. I loved it - perfect for curling up by the fire and getting lost in the story.

I'm a little sad that I finished this. It's adorable. And I 💘 Iona. This was my IRL book club pick for December. No idea where my friend found it, but so freaking glad she did.

I finished “Iona Iverson‘s Rules for Commuting” and it was a delight 🤩 Iona may be a new favorite fictional character.

Also, this was my first time using this style of audiobook, and it was great! It was such a breeze to use (especially while driving on the highway lol). Would recommend both the book and audio device 👍👍

Visiting my family in Iowa this weekend, and fall has arrived! Overcast and 50‘s today (aaaaaand 70‘s and sun tomorrow and Sunday, gotta love the Midwest 🙄😆). I‘m doing an audio listen and reading a physical copy of this book and I‘m halfway through and it‘s delightful 🥰

Oh, this was such a charming, heart-warming little read. It gave me the same vibes as Phaedra Patrick or Abbi Waxman, which are some of my favourite reading vibes. Every character was just so loveable (even Piers!) and I loved how everything came together, it was such a sweet, lovely book. I still don't miss commuting, though.

So I had high expectations for this book based on reviews. It was ok, not amazing, but a cute story about strangers on the train in London and their interconnectedness.

I truly enjoyed this little read. What happens when during a normal commute one person chokes on a grape? This story. That‘s what. Populated by endearing characters and fun storylines I fully enjoyed every minute of this one. #blqsummerreadingchallenge #yellowcover

After enjoying this author's first novel I had to give this one a read and I was not disappointed. This is a delightful story filled with a varied cast of characters whose unlikely friendships change each others lives. It reminded me of Fredrik Backman's humorous novels, where a thoroughly entertaining story also manages to pass on life lessons...without feeling preachy. I look forward to more from this author. I gave it a 4.5/5.
