3.0

I'm a dolphin and it sucks to be one because we are the insomniacs of the world. Dr. Breus says dolphins need to get up 6:30 AM, no snooze, no coffee until at least 90 minutes later. No blue screen devices after 10:30 PM, go to bed at 11:30 PM, and absolutely NO NAPS, ever! After reading all of that I nearly quit the book. I was like, yeah right that's never going to happen. I go to bed at 1:00 AM and sleep until 11:00 AM. I say sleep, but really I'm in the bed wishing I were asleep. And naps? I have obtained a doctorate in nap taking. However, I started to do some of his recommendations - and guess what? Three times this week I was out of bed between 7:30 AM-9:00 AM.

I gave the book three stars because I was bored through 3/4 of it when he wasn't talking about my chronotype. I forced myself through the book though, because as a librarian I want to be informed about everything.
