I'm sitting alone on a double seat, and one of them sits next to me. And she's curious about what I'm reading, since it's in tiny print and three columns.
LOL! I remember being on the subway a couple of months ago and reading something absolutely *egregious*.... it was a Harry Potter MPREG, I think it was Lexin's "Unnatural"... and having a young woman glance over my shoulder and squeal, "OMG! Is that an advance galley of the new Harry Potter book?" (It was a relatively innocuous passage about Harry getting a room to himself at Hogwarts.)
It took every ounce of scruples I could scrape up from the bottom of my twisted soul - plus literally biting the inside of my cheek until I winced - to keep myself from chirping, "You bet it is! Here, you want to read it?" and handing it over so I could watch her brain explode all over the subway car.
