Boring Books for Bedtime Readings to Help You Sleep
Boring Books for Bedtime is a weekly sleep podcast in which we calmly, quietly read something rather boring to silence the brain chatter keeping you awake. Think Aristotle, Thoreau, and whoever wrote the 1897 Sears Catalog—mostly nonfiction, mostly old, a perfect blend of vaguely-but-not-too interesting. If you're on Team Sleepless, lie back, take a deep breath, and let us read you to rest.

The best podcast to sleep
I have also found some great (and not actually boring!) books here!

Bad
How can you say books like Flatland, HG Wells’s Short History of the World, The Voyage of the Bounty, The Origin of Species, or the writings of John Muir and HD Thoreau are boring?

Sleep
This podcasts helps me fall asleep! I especially love the Sears catalogue from the 1960s. The podcasters voice is very calm
