The world of books is an amazing one. It's wonderful how you can lay down on the softest bedding every night and say goodbye to all the life stress so easily by just opening up a book.

You escape reality and automatically transform yourself to a whole another world, with different characters and different situations. Not only this, reading can also completely turn your mood around and is the perfect activity to indulge in right before sleeping.

While we can go on and on about the positive effects of reading before sleep, we thought instead, we’d recommend you the perfect books (or worlds) that you can read up before sleeping.

To Kill A Mockingbird – Harper Lee

While we’re at it, we thought why not take a detour and head down the classics route. If you haven’t read this one, then you’re greatly missing out on this classic fiction, which makes it a must-read as you lay on the softest bedding! A popular read of American Literature, the hard themes of racial inequality, prejudice and the importance of family are bound to make you think deeply about the state of our society long after you have completed the read. The lessons taught by Atticus Finch are appropriately fitted beyond the pages of the novel and are applicable to our real world too.

Happy reading!
