I know that some people probably never read in bed since they most likely wouldn't want to have a light on for too long while they are preparing to go to sleep. But for some people, like me, reading in bed can actually help you sleep better. The only drawback to reading while you're in bed is that when you fall asleep, the book you were reading either falls out of your hands and hits the floor, or it falls beside you on the bed and closes so that you won't remember what page you were on when you pick it up to read again.
