Ok so I have a bit of insomnia and I like to read to pass the time... So I usually just look at a magazine before hitting the hay, but I'd rather being reading a good book, so I'm looking for a few good suggestions... Please no horror types or sci-fi.
Thanks!:o :o

- Eat a small meal with some carbohydrates shortly before going to sleep
- Use your bed only to sleep or something not visually stimulating to help you get to sleep such as reading
- Avoid the TV or computer at least an hour before sleeping
- Avoid exercise in the evening -- do it earlier in the day
- Avoid any caffeinated drinks after 2pm or so (coffee, soda, etc.)


/edit -- Whoops, I just realized you wanted book suggestions and not suggestions on getting to sleep, lol. What genres do you prefer?

Read a book about insomnia it may be boring enough to put you to sleep.jk Read Little Women by Louisa May Alcott. It is a old book but it is mellow and about a nice family and their neighbors and town:)

When going to bed, I like to read things like Readers Digest, or something that is about science like Science News. For myself, I find it best not to read something that I like so much and in which I will get so engrossed that I will not want to put it down so that I can get to sleep.

If you like comedy try janet evanovich, crime try michael connelly, let me know what genres you like.

Ok so, I love Dean Koontz books, but I get way to into them to put them down. And I find readers digest way too boring to read. Thank you though. And I've already read Little Women when I was like 12 and I've also read almost every book by Jane Austen. I'm really looking for newer books, not classics. And I like books opposed to magazines. Thank you everyone who is helping meout! Much love.

Sams letters to jennifer by james patterson was really good. And its not gorey or scary or boring!

Author Tawny O'dell Back Roads it was an awesome book.

The Outlander series by Diana Gabaldon is a great series, but will keep you up not put you to sleep.

I'll have to dig out my syllabus for my Catholic Traditions class. There was a book in that class that could put you to sleep in 10 minutes even after 5 cups of coffee.
