One of the bright-yet-dim sides of this pandemic is that, likely, most people are getting more sleep. It wasn't until I listened to this audiobook that I learned the true importance of getting enough sleep each night, because as I learned from this book, if you're sleeping less than 8 hours a night, you're significantly shortening your lifespan in a myriad of ways.
If you're interested in the brain and how it functions, I'm sure you'd love this book. It's truly fascinating the links between sleep and cognitive function, and how even just losing out on a few hours of sleep can significantly impair your ability to perform. At times it got a bit too "science-y" for me (I'm a comms person, sue me) so I tuned in and out, but the author himself gave readers a pass to fall asleep reading or listening to the book, which I didn't do, so I'll call it a win.
Moral of the story: Get enough sleep!!! Your body, your brain, and your ultimate lifespan will thank you for it.

Loved it! Great book that tries to figure out what sleep actually is, what it does and how we can get more of it.

Super interesting. Well written.
At times a little fear monger-y, but still incredibly insightful and eye opening and darn cute at moments. Excellent author with a well written dense book that kept me entertained and fascinated.
