Hi Tracey, I'm sorry you have had a bad night. Mine wasn't brilliant although I have improved recently after a nasty chest infection. i keep an e-reader in bed with me and borrow library books on it. You are not allowed to borrow library books on every type of e-reader. PM me if you want details. Take care of yourself and keep warm.

Hi Sheila,

What type of e-reader would I need please? I have a library van that stops in the centre of our small village, outside my house. It would be so handy to use an e-reader.

I have a nasty chest infection and it's disturbed my sleep schedule. I seem to be up all hours and am driving hubby mad!

MrsMac, I use a Kobo. I live in England near Liverpool and belong to our local library and also have been allowed to join Liverpool library which extends the choice. You can not use a kindle to borrow library books. It takes a bit of mastering to start with but help is sometimes available at a library

The books are automatically 'taken back' at the end of the loan period.

I am going on holiday soon so will borrow the maximum of books from both libraries. You can also buy books and are offered some free from bookbub.

Excellent, I live in Lincolnshire so will ask the library bus staff if the Kobo is OK for them too. It sounds ideal!

Thanks for sharing this info

Sounds like the club is getting bigger by the night! I too take books to bed but use the audio books option from my library to at least help me relax if not sleep.

[Tracey1972 in reply to QuietChest]

We should start a book club a night time one as lots of us a wake x

[Hidden in reply to QuietChest]

I take books to bed too. In fact, I have a pile of my favourite embroidery books on my bedside table along with my current novel.

I love the idea of drifting off to sleep listening to an audio book!

[Hidden in reply to Tracey1972]

Pity. I find daytime naps are better for me than nighttime ones! Have a lovely day and I hope you manage a good afternoon nap. x

It's interesting that e readers have been mentioned because I have several books on my IPad that I read when I can't sleep because of my asthma.

Hi Tracey, I hope you're managing to get a good night's sleep.
