I brought back my habit of reading this year. New rule, no internet and youtube right before sleep, read instead. I fall asleep sooner and much better.
And I finally read Dune, probably the best book of this year, surprisingly good, I like the writing style.
- jerpint 4y agoI’m trying hard to establish this habit as well. I got an e reader so I can read in the dark (lights bother my SO when she’s falling asleep). I confirm that reading technical books before bed puts me straight to sleep. And most e readers can sync with a smart phone so you can continue reading instead of browsing HN during a lunch break :)
- club_tropical 4y agoSo what’s the point of a “reading habit” in the abstract- what are you hoping to gain?
- ginnungagap 4y agoI've been reading the dune series too and while the first book was amazing and the second was good, they get worse fast after that in my opinion

- criddell 4y agoI sometimes regret my habit of reading before bed. I think I’ve conditioned myself so anytime I start reading I start feeling sleepy.
- sitzkrieg 4y agohad same, avoid reading in bed if you can
