Whether you're driving to wait tables in a restaurant at Topeka, riding the subway to Wall Street, or in a jeep heading out to search bloodthirsty koalas from the Australian Outback, the daily commute is a near-universal aspect of life. And this sail can be dull. It is the exact same old, same old, day in and day out. Yawn.

There are any number of methods to pass the time, but our personal favorite is people watching (or at the Outback, wallaby watching). Individuals watching empowers us to be amateur anthropologists, examining human behavior and bending our imaginations by thinking up stories for everyone's personal lives. Exactly what does that wallaby do when we are not looking at it?

Rachel, who's the titular woman in The Girl on the Train, gets a bit carried away with the folks viewing, imagining an ideal life and an ideal union for a particular (individual) couple she sees daily on her train journey to and from London. However, when Rachel sees the spouse of this ideal couple kiss another guy, then proceed missing a couple of days afterwards, she gets trapped up in an investigation that forces her to flip those folks watching abilities in on himself.

The Girl on the Train is the introduction suspense thriller by Paula Hawkins, that was a UK journalist before turning her attention to fiction. We bet she has great people-watching abilities, too.

A book that sped onto the scene similar to this one was clearly made into a film--simply don't confuse it with the critically panned 2013 movie by the exact same name starring the dude who played Desmond on Missing. Even though that sounds sort of amazing, too.

With all its achievement, the book is similar to a runaway train never going back, however, this one will be going the right manner on a one-way trail. The Girl on the Train has already left the station, but it is never too late to get on board.
