This book is so cute, I wish I'd received it as a gift and may very well give it as one in the future. It isn't some high-and-mighty book proclaiming to know all the secrets to curing insomnia or a dull self-help novel you'll never find time to read. Instead, it's an adorable book which uses repetitive tasks and puzzles with a dash of humour and some useful (if also very common) tips to guide you into a state of readiness for sleep.

Due to the review copy I received being a digital edition, I definitely feel like I missed out on some of the charm and usefulness of this book. Having it open on a phone's reading app is not going to help with sleep no matter what and several of the activities were impossible to complete due to spanning two pages instead of one. As such, I'm doing a tiny bit of guessing when I rate it and going more on cuteness and presumed usefulness to decide my rating.

Overall, I liked this book. There wasn't much to read, but what was there seemed large enough it could be read without my glasses - a plus for the concept of helping with sleep. And Kip the sheep? Oh, I adore him so! As a gift for a loved one who stays up too late on occasion, this would be a home run. As a tool for someone battling crippling insomnia... well, it will at least give them something to do while trying to sleep, but I highly doubt it'll fix their problems.

(Disclaimer: I received a digital copy of this book from NetGalley for purposes of reading and reviewing. The opinions expressed are my own and the review is honest.)

Truth is, I don't think this book would ever actually help anyone fall asleep. There are some way-too-obvious tips that I'm sure anyone who ever had trouble getting to sleep has already tried, and there are well-chosen quotes, and some exercises to do. In addition to, of course, many-many sheep to count. It sounds good. It looks good. I'm sure no one would sleep better, though. Not me, that's for sure.

I do think, though, that this book would make a great gift for someone who's for example a legendary not-good-sleeper among friends or family. It's funny and cute. No rational point in buying it, but I would actually get one to my best friend (she had trouble sleeping since we were little kids), because it would be funny and she would love these sheep.

Hell, I love these sheep, too.

As someone who has trouble falling asleep, I was really looking forward to this book. Unfortunately, I was unable to get this to open on any reader I have therefore I'm unable to review it.

A gift book, mostly full of drawings of sheep, but also quotes about sleeping and little puzzles to distract the restless mind. Nothing deep, fine for what it is.

This was such a cute book, with puzzles and illustrations that were super fun. I loved the quotes and bedtime sleep tips, and will be sure to utilize them. It certainly makes you more motivated to sleep earlier, and get better sleep. I actually looked forward to reading this book as I went to bed every night, and recommend it as a gift for yourself, or a friend.

This is a short, cute and funny little book. While it did not make me fall asleep I did enjoy the pictures (the sheep are adorable!), puzzles and quotes. Thank you to Netgalley and Andrews McMeel Publishing for an ARC copy in exchange for an honest review.

I didn't enjoy the book very much to be honest!

I would like to thank the publisher for giving me a copy of this book via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

On Goodreads, I left off a star rating, as This Book Will Make You Fall Asleep by Andrews McMeel Publishing is more of a coffee table type book that you give as a gift than anything else. As I'm required to leave a star rating here on Netgalley, I've decided on three stars. This book is comical, and it has some really great quotes and tips in it. I am sure that this book COULD help some people fall asleep, but personally, I know that the puzzles in this book would turn my brain on, rather than put me to sleep. All in all, though, this book is a fun time! Just don't expect it to cure your insomnia by any means.

So last night I did NOT have a good night's sleep. I don't know if this book will make me sleep better tonight but I can say that it is very cute. This is a book for all ages. There are sheep everywhere to be counted and all kinds of puzzles including mazes, word searches, spot the difference, find the two that are alike and more. Throughout the book is delightfully illustrated with cartoon sheep like the ones that you see on the cover..

In addition to the puzzles, there are many quotes about sleep. There are also hints that are tried and true, such as shutting off screens, drinking warm milk, etc.

This book will not necessarily solve your sleep problems, but you might enjoy looking through it.

Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this title in exchange for an honest review.

I wasn't really sure what this book would include, but as an insomniac I was excited to read it. It is filled with tips and tricks to help you fall asleep faster, how to set up your bedroom, and then puzzles and games to do before bedtime. A great stocking stuffer or gift for any insomniac. Four stars because most of tips and tricks I've heard before, but this book puts them all in one place.

I'm a bad sleeper, so I thought: 'Maybe this will help me.'
The book is full of games and quotes, but it didn't help me sadly enough.
The games did my brain working, so I was more awake than ever.
A good thing is that it helped me to stop worrying about everything.

I cracked this adorable little book open last night as I struggled to fall asleep. It's full of great quotes, fast little puzzles and games and adorable little sheep. I loved the soothing colors and found myself wishing I had a physical copy instead of a digital one. I really enjoyed the quotes that reminded me to do simple things to help me fall asleep. Sadly, it didn't put me to sleep because I was enjoying it too much! I think there is potential here for this book to work for many. I enjoyed it!

This Book Will Make You Fall Asleep by Andrews McMeel Publishing. Absolutely adored Kip and the flock. A fun and cute way to de-stress and unwind at the end of the day. Will be looking for the print book when it is published and will get a couple of extra copies for our sleep deprived friends.

Thank you to the publisher, author, and NetGalley for the opportunity to preview the book.

This Book Will Make You Fall Asleep by Andrews McMeel Publishing is a cute book. It has good illustrations, puzzles, and quotes. I think children would enjoy it, but it’s a fun read for adults too. It would also be a good gift for someone.

I received an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Get a physical copy cause this will do wonders for the kids not wanting to sleep and can also count as a Fun activity to do together with the kids.

Special thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for this arc. Comes out Jan 2020.

I love Kip and I love this book. It's cute, fun and useful.
I loved the quiz and I loved the illustrations.
Highly recommended!
Many thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this ARC, all opinions are mine.

A cute little book but not quite the revelation I had hoped for.
It is filled with word searches, puzzles, spot the differences, quotes and lovely little illustrations.
However, it didn't really offer me anything I didn't already know or haven't already gotten elsewhere.
A nice little bedside book for hotels and B&Bs perhaps.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing this book in exchange for an honest review.
This book is full of good quotes, fun puzzles and word searches, and especially adorable sheep to count or just enjoy. The tips aren't anything deep or new as far as help with dealing with insomnia but reading this cute book is at least relaxing.

I read this book after a good nights sleep.

This book will make you fall asleep. This is a title that over-reaches itself. The book however does not take itself too seriously or scientifically promises a magic cure for insomnia. That is the point where other fail.

This area of self-help guides is a thriving industry, addressing sleepless nights with numerous books and remedies to restore restful sleep
This book is not flippant in its approach; it is not making fun of the insomniac nor taking the issue lightly - it is just reverting to the old adage let’s count sheep. Indeed the fact such a book has been published acknowledges both the topic and the natural process sleep is to us all.

It introduces Kip the sheep and his number increases with each passing page. In between is worldly wisdom and sayings around the subject of nodding off. Humour is the driver of course; it is about having fun not at someone’s expense, but with them, to help bring about a relaxed mind and a tired body.
Filled with puzzles, word searches and the like, all are sleep orientated and focus on pillows and rest. Nothing too thought provoking, yet did I imagine the tasks were more demanding the further into the book, perhaps my tired brain was submitting and giving up the fight.
I have read a number of books on this subject. These take much longer to say the same things this simple book shares. None of these methods is guaranteed and despite its title, the complete answer for every case does not lie in these pages also. Yet, in not over dramatising the subject, I think this little book may be closer to the solution and bring some peace and stress free moments to bedtime.

Kip is now my sleep buddy. Every night I get into bed and count the sheep on the page, do one of the puzzles, count the sheep on the next page, turn the light off. Wish Kip and his woolly friend goodnight and I’m off to sleep. A simple idea but, it works for me!
