insomnia

Detective Will Dormer goes to Alaska to solve a brutal murder and ends up shooting his own partner accidentally.

Summer with all its heat approaches, making the revived astronomy club's observatory stupidly hot, but that won't stop Ganta Nakami and his fellow insomniac Isaki Magari from conducting their first-ever meteor shower watch party. Also, Nakami and Magari agree they should go to the city's fireworks festival--together.

"The school forces the insomiacs' re-formed astronomy club to operate as a proper club. The problem is, neither Nakami--its new president--nor the club's adviser know a thing about astronomy. Yui Shiromaru, once a prize-winning astrophotographer, now the manager of a small-town video arcade, might just be the person they need"--Provided by publisher.

"It's the middle of the night, but Mole can't sleep. First he's too hot ... then he's too cold ... and then he's afraid of the dark! Can his best friend, Mouse, make everything just right?"--Back cover.

On a hot summer night a little girl wakes up, and wonders what has woken her, and the rest of the nighttime world.

"Unable to sleep at night, Ganta Nakami is cranky in class and unpopular with his classmates. He discovers that the school observatory, once used by the now-defunct astronomy club, may be the perfect place for a nap--but he's not alone. Fellow insomniac Isaki Magari is willing to share the observatory with Nakami, and a friendship between the two begins as they bond over the most unlikely of things. Dark rumors about what befell the members of the astronomy club keep people away from the school observatory, and that's what makes it the perfect sanctuary for Nakami and Magari to get some much-needed rest. Unfortunately, the school faculty can't allow its unsanctioned use. But if there were a new astronomy club, maybe these two insomniacs could have a place to call home!"--Provided by publisher.

After a pea accidentally gets between her mattresses, a busy princess has trouble falling asleep but with help from the gardener, cook, librarian, and astronomer she learns to relax her mind and body. Includes directions for a yoga and meditation bedtime routine.

"Ralph Roberts never expected to live out his remaining golden years mourning the death of his beloved wife. He also never expected to begin suffering from chronic insomnia for the first time in his life. Each night he wakes up a little bit earlier, until he's barely sleeping at all. During his overnight walks, he's now observing some strange things going on here in Derry, Maine--and they're more than sleep-deprived hallucinations. There's definitely a mean streak that's always been running through this small New England city; underneath its ordinary surface, awesome and terrifying forces are at work. The dying has been going on in Derry for a long, long time, and Ralph Roberts will soon find that lack of sleep is the least of his worries."--Back cover.

"Teens are overscheduled these days that there's a tendency to think of sleep as 'wasted time.' Nothing could be further from the truth. The body needs sleep to recover from the days' activities, while the mind needs sleep to process everything that has been seen, heard, and learned during our waking hours. Likewise, personal hygiene, which may seem like yet more wasted time in a busy day, is an essential part of keeping ourselves healthy"--Back cover.

"Millions of teens struggle with sleep and feel exhausted as a result. 'Goodnight Mind for Teens' will help teens cope with the anxious and over-stimulating thoughts that can lead to insomnia, identify and work with their own circadian rhythm, and set up a new sleep schedule so they can improve their alertness, feel more energetic, and be in a better mood throughout the day"--Provided by publisher.
