No. I would read on the bus. I can read in the most crazy of spaces....
The Expanse was something I was absolutely absorbed with. Each new book was magic to my imagination.
I rode public transit and had to walk a lot to get to work, through downtown Seattle
I would read and walk, I knew the best/optimal path that would have the least traffic and still get me to work on time. My bosses boss found me one day reading and waiting for the crosswalk and then crossing in rush hour traffic and it blew her mind. I was listening to the world around me but I was in that book!
The Expanse is some of the finest fiction (and TV!) I've ever experienced. Holding off on a 3rd read because there's so much more out there I've never touched.
I was once again pitching the Expanse to my sister tonight. To anyone who hasn't dove in: if you're nerdy enough for the fediverse; you'll love it.
