The book-drop at Oval underground station

Deserves nothing less than a standing ovation.

My last three books have come from there

A Harris, a Wodehouse and a JM Coetzee.

Crime, romance or the latest thriller

Or maybe the Hungry Caterpillar.

Leave what you’ve read and take what you need

You’re moments away from another free read.

With your nose in a book; in no time

You’ll forget you’re riding the Northern Line.
