    I’ll start with “I Partridge” Keep getting some really funny looks when I burst out laughing at some point on nearly every page. Probably because I read it in my head in the voice of Alan Partridge. I have to stop reading out of pure embarrassment.

    A copy of this with a dedication from the author?

    A mate on mine’s brother did a degree in human anatomy and used to read the text books on the train. Chapter 6 – How to bandsaw a head in half

    When I used to train commute, I’d often read journals en route.
    Given the often gory nature, I’d be discreet about it.
    One day I got up to shift my bike, and put the journal on the table (closed I thought).

    A chap walked past me and said “naughty boy, reading stuff like that” and got off….

    When I got back to othe table, I’d obviously slammed the mag down, and it flopped open on a half page spread of a high quality image of a manky, infected c0ck……
    Joy…..

    I love a good train crash, read several books whilst on trains! Likewise plane crash books when on planes.

    ‘Bad Wisdom’ by the guy from KLF. It has a rather disturbing scene involving Nuns on a train, on the way to the north pole…

    I bought the audiobook rather than the physical book just so I could hear it read by ‘him’.

    Do glossy mags count? In which case, too many to mention

    My copy of Fisting for Beginners got me a few looks on the Friday commute.
