Apparently I got old enough to require reading glasses now (FML) - so reading before bed isn't as easy an option.
So I found audiobooks via my local library (in the U.S.) that I can just download - w00t!
I still PREFER the old "dead-tree" format, but audiobooks have become a replacement.
And don't forget - you can increase the speed of the narrator if you feel like their speaking-cadence is too slow.
But...but...if your glasses are on the bedside table WHILE you're sleeping - how to you get any reading accomplished?!? ;)
