READ IT
Clare Pooley’s Iona Iverson’s Rules for Commuting is a treat for anyone who has ever commuted. Iona rides the train with the same group of London fast trackers every morning. They nod but do not engage until an incident one morning causes the group of known strangers to finally unite. Iona, a magazine advice column who is starting to feel irrelevant in her job, emerges as the unlikely heroine of the train. Filled with a beautiful cast of characters, readers will enjoy looking for the light at the end of the tunnel with them. At Barbara’s and Barnes & Noble.
