Are books sure to make one sleep ?

In my own experience, book cannot bring me to sleep. Maybe because if i started holding and reading a book, i got move by the stories until i cannot stop reading until i finish it.

That may be a joke but I find it to be true. I read from a book every night and I find my self falling asleep after just a few pages. It can take me a long time to read a book this way. It relaxes me and takes my mind off the days problems.

There is truth to this. I have read that television and computers are stimulants while reading is not. I read every night in bed and find that it does help me fall asleep. It is quiet and gets my mind off of the stresses of the day. I don't think this is true for all people or all books (there are nights I am up for hours wanting to read on) but I agree that if you read to yourself you will fall asleep easier. I also find reading to my child at night calms them down and helps them sleep too.

They help me sleep, especially if it is something long (such as A Tale of Two Cities, for instance) or very boring.

it all depends on the book. when i am studying, i get to sleep. but i am reading a good book that really interests me, i can't sleep. i want to finish the whole book. better read a boring book and it will really make you sleep..hahahA

That must be a biasd thought.The main point is the book must give you a great impression and it would be the one you love.Of course,the bore books are real existed,that may let you sleeping.

Well, personally books do not make me sleep. When I have a book to read, I tend to read it and usually I end up not sleeping at all instead of sleeping. Perhaps other would be able to go to sleep by reading, but not me. I get curious more and tend to read the book until the wee hours. So better no reading of book for me when I want to sleep. Otherwise, I end up awake reading the book and wanting to finish it.

Well as for me its quite true, but its not neccesserliy that it could happen to anyone. I think it depends how u r with at the initial stage of ur schools. I was a very intelligent student than one decission change my entire life, i wont tell coz its a long story, but come to the point i felt sleep when studying books more than a hour its really look wierd for me. Sometimes i get angry with myself but i cant do anything thats y i left studying after graduation.

hahaha,it is funny.But in my opinion,yes,books definitely can make people easy sleep,Even with most interesting story books,after reading one or two hours,I will feel sleepy,then I will fall asleep. With this book,maybe the baby could fall asleep soon. :) Happy mylotting.

To me.. it depends on the type of book that I read. Some books take me to sleep mode very quickly. Esp my semester book :)) But thrilling novels and investigation novels, makes me sit wake till the end of the novel. I generally prefer some books related to technical stuff for making me sleep :))

Depends. Textbooks do make me sleep but comics and novels don't. I am not those who need sounds to keep my awake :P But I have a great love of books as I like reading a lot that really do not apply on me. I will need some sounds to make me fall asleep instead!

yea,it surely does. it makes your eyes heavy and tired - specially if the story of the book is BORING!

Books can make someone fall asleep through constant reading since it tired the eyes aside from the book lover person who actually wants to continue their reading until to its last page especially when they get thrilled of the story or to the topic they had on hand.

in my opinion ,if i think the book is interesting i will not sleep;but if the book is annoying,i will soon get sleep,such as the textbook.so i think whether books make one sleep depends on the reader's interesting.

I think I sleep best when I am physically tired but mentally tranquil. Reading can relax me and help me sleep, but sometimes I get so involved in what I'm reading that I can't put the book away. Rather than put me sleep, books can actually keep me awake! So I actually try not to read right immediately before I plan go to sleep. I've even heard sleep experts say that you shouldn't read in bed because then you'll get used to thinking of your bed as your reading center and not just as a place for sleep. Reading in bed is too much fun, though -- I can't give that up.

i don't want to sleep when i am reading a book cause a book contains lots of information and it will surely help me to learn many things and make me more prepared for any career i would like to choose. and books will help me earn and survive in life. but i just can't help it. i just fall asleep every time i read a book and so that is why i am not so successful. i just don't know why. just this morning i was reading a book. and i was just reading for about 10 minutes. when i had this feeling that my eyes were so heavy and i can't help but to sleep.
