Reply to comment by throwhand1 in The Bible has inspired an immense body of beautiful music (Christmas, classical, etc.) What are some other examples of works of fiction that have inspired great music? by upvoter1542

Wait, what do you mean by "almost the Christmas Season"? It looks like OP posted on Christmas Eve, but do you not start celebrating anything until Christmas day? Do you put decorations before December 25th?

Reply to What have you found the relationship between reading and sleeping to be for you? by [deleted]

Reading before bed can be a double-edged sword. Sometimes it helps me sleep, especially if I can't sleep because of anxiety about something. Getting my brain to focus on the story helps me not fixate on whatever is keeping me from sleeping.

However, sometimes the book is what keeps me from sleeping, and I'm a zombie the next day regardless

Reply to For those with little money and an underfunded library, how do you read your ebooks and paperbacks? by [deleted]

I'm always browsing Kobo's sales. I've found some really amazing books that way (and also a couple clunkers that taught me to always read the sample downloads), plus a lot of books I was already interested in reading. A lot of popular books end up in their sales, you just have to be on the look out for them. A lot of classics can also be gotten super cheap on their website, like a single "book" that's actually comprised of like fifty books for $2.99.
