Thanks to @Chelsea.Poole for this excellent #AuldLangSpyne recommendation: a brief but deep book about six astro/cosmonauts from various countries circling the globe together in 24 hours. It‘s a wonderful exploration of bridging cultural differences, with awareness of how connected we are on this tiny planet. Harvey poetically explores big issues and personal pain, in the life of one astronaut and an incident on Earth that none were connected to.

Chelsea.Poole Glad this worked for you!! 1mo

Does anyone have recs for #audiobooks that are good to fall asleep to?

I‘m not looking for books or podcasts for inducing sleep, just ones that don‘t demand my full concentration to understand them (but aren‘t empty) and don‘t have a lot of drama. Sometimes I drift off and am awakened by something an angry character is saying.

Also, of course, a good narrator! A couple of examples are Braiding Sweetgrass and the Three Pines mysteries.

CuriousG I enjoyed The Year of Living Danishly and have put it on to fall asleep to, although sometimes I wake my husband up if I start to chuckle. Lol 3y
Singout Thanks! Unfortunately it‘s not an audiobook in my library. I think one of my #AuldLangSpyne books from @TheBookHippie will work well: 3y
TheBookHippie @Singout Oh I bet that will work! I have used cookbooks on audio! Ha. 3y
