a specific word for a person who tries to read secretly the newspaper or magazine another person is reading -- for instance on a bus, train, etc.
What an interesting thread that Jo has kindly unearthed for us.
I'm going to plump for Disco_Stu's eavesreading I think. Quite a nice musical sound to it as well as it being possible to guess what it means.
(Sorry Avy! "intreading" doesn't work for me.)
