In Between Commutes By Jeet Jangid Every morning at 8:17 AM, Claire rides the downtown 6 train — same car, same seat, same quiet routine. But when a mysterious man across the aisle drops a handwritten note into her lap that reads, “You’re the reason I take this train,” everything changes. What begins as a fleeting subway connection soon turns into a secret exchange of notes between two strangers, unfolding day by day amid the rush of New York City. Claire, a shy editorial assistant stuck in the background of her own life, finds herself pulled into a slow-burning mystery: Who is this man with the books? And why does he feel so familiar? As snow blankets the city and fate finally intervenes, Claire discovers that their story started long before the first note. Heartfelt, hopeful, and brimming with quiet magic, In Between Commutes is a tender exploration of missed connections, unexpected love, and the power of small moments to change everything. Perfect for fans of Emily Henry, Beth O’Leary, and slow-burn romance lovers everywhere.
