Oh, I didn't finish it, but I put down my kindle under my pillow when I could no longer keep my eyes open and was asleep a few seconds later.
Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."
I occasionally wake up with a book on my stomach, my reading glasses sliding off my nose and the light still on.
I just started another re-read of the Goblin Emperor (Summer Reading Bingo closed this weekend, so I went for a comfort re-read since I didn't have to fill a space!) and it's still so good I don't think I turned off the light until the second time I hit myself with the book after falling asleep with it.
I went through about a month of terrible insomnia recently, and recovering my ability to fall asleep while reading has been SUCH a relief.
I try and maintain the 3 drop rule, where after my Nook slips and falls down 3 times I give up and sleep. Mostly because I am just going to have to back up and reread a few pages that I read in my sleep anyway. Sometimes I fight through a few more drops, because books.
IT IS GETTING A SEQUEL CALLED SPACE ODDITY
Sweet! I have the Space Opera audiobook in my library but it is not marked "Finished" and I don't remember it distinctly from the e-book, so did I not listen to it? Weird. Well, can do that before reading the sequel, surely.
The Seventh Bride is so good! So pleased to see it being read
Audiobooks are pretty great for falling asleep to, but I haven't found a good way to listen to just a bit more if I wake up in the middle of the night. It seems simple enough, but my level of awakeness does not lend itself to that as well as opening up a book and reading off a page for a bit, apparently.
Unrelatedly, I’ve been listening to the Flavia Alba mystery series set in 1st century Rome and the first couple of books/cases involve the Temple of Ceres and every time I hear that phrase I am earwormed with Rush even though I tell myself very sternly that it is Ceres not Syrinx
The Seventh Bride is so good! So pleased to see it being read
I have not disliked a single book that I have read by T Kingfisher yet. They are all delightful!
I have the Space Opera audiobook in my library but it is not marked "Finished" and I don't remember it distinctly from the e-book, so did I not listen to it?
If there's enough back matter, some books (e and audio) won't automatically show as Read at the end of the book (because there's credits or promo materials or what have you).
It’s showing 9 h to go, like I barely started it. I know I intended to listen to it, and I ingested the story somehow, but maybe only with my eyes? Weird. I’ll get to it eventually
the Flavia Albia mystery series
I didn't know about this. I liked the Marcus Didius Falco series, so I will give it a try.
