Peter F. Hamilton

Book: Pandora's Star by Peter F. Hamilton
Location: Caltrain
Notes: Another reader submission. Thanks for spotting and shooting this one Sena! And good work getting two readers on one ride. Sena says of the second photo: "Can't tell what book she's reading but I often see her with a coffee and hard back, making the most out of a 30 minute train ride."

Steve Dublanica

Book: Waiter Rant: Thanks for the Tip--Confessions of a Cynical Waiter by Steve Dublanica
Location: BART
Notes: Another library book! I remember hearing about this book a while ago, sounds amusing.

Keith Richards

Book: Life by Keith Richards
Location: J Church (outbound)
Notes: I spotted this woman from across the train and made my way towards her but wasn't able to tell what book she was reading until she was about to get off the train. I tried unsuccessfully to stand over her and make out the title on the page, then sat across from her and tried to see the cover but she was on to me and kept looking up at me. I was sure I wasn't going to get this shot and was thrilled when she closed the book and put it on her lap. Also she looked like a Keith Richards fan and I mean that in a good way. I want to read this book.

Colum McCann

Book: Let the Great World Spin by Colum McCann
Location: 5 Fulton Bus
Notes: My first reader submission! Thanks Kacie for snapping this one. Such a great shot I thought it was staged at first! This is another book I have in my stack of 'to read'.

John Grisham

Book: The Associate by John Grisham
Location: T train (inbound)
Notes: She looked like a John Grisham reader.

What are you reading?

Sometimes there are books that get away. For the life of me I could not sneak around this woman enough to see what book she was reading. I felt like she was intentionally hiding the cover. I sometimes do that when I'm reading something in public I don't want to be judged for, so I can't blame her. It's a long weekend and I'd love to hear what books you're reading.

Haruki Murakami & best shoes ever

Book: The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle by Haruki Murakami
Location: BART (inbound)
Notes: This book has been on my night stand for over a year. So many people have told me how much they loved it but for some reason I just haven't been inspired to start it yet. I loved this girls shoes, they were the sparkliest, goldest shoes I've ever seen. There's a lot of leg in this photo but it's really hard to not include so much leg when you're trying to keep a person's head out of a shot.
