The Sleepyhead's Bedside Companion - Sean Coughlan
With the Mumsnet
Book Club already thriving, we thought it about time we started reviewing grown up books and for this category we want to know what you think is the best book ever written (plenty of scope there then). At some point when we've reached a critical mass we'll be handing out a dazzling literary award to the winning book (watch out Mr Booker) so please add as many reviews as you like and feel free to comment on other folks' choices. As ever, if you have any suggestions for new categories you'd like to see, please send them over to contactus@mumsnet.com.

This is a marvellous read about a subject I really enjoy - sleep! Rather than being a book about sleep problems, it's about how enjoyable it is. It's very funny in places and has a great range of subjects, from stories about sleep, history, mythology, art and science. You can jump from place to place and it's very dippable, with lots of short items. It reminds in a way of the Eats, Shoots and Leaves book, which was about punctuation, but was interesting in its own right, even if you weren't obsessed with punctuation. It has a very engaging "feel" to it, and I think it is going to be a handy book for presents.
