Fast Asleep by Michael Mosley is an interesting and easy read about sleeping and tips for insomniacs to consider to improve the percent of the time they spend actually sleeping while in bed instead of laying there fretting and trying. It didn’t feel like this was groundbreaking but more of a summary of good practices. I appreciated the chapter on jet lag and shift work the most. About a fourth of the book is a section with recipes using foods that are supposed to be good for sleep enhancement (and other health benefits. It did feel like the book had a lot of self-promotion to the author’s other works but I think that is his style. I voluntarily received and reviewed a complimentary copy of this book on Net Galley, all opinions are my own.

This book is filled with really helping information, with a great deal of research to back it up. I read a lot of books about health related topics. I read them for the sake of gaining information, but I usually find them extremely boring. So I was pleasantly surprised that this book was not only informative, but also really interesting.
