I've found a similar solution to my sleep problems.

I used to fall asleep listening to audio books. I eventually found audio books that are barely interesting, with certain narration styles to put me to sleep faster.

I now have a series of audio books, mostly gumshoe detective novels, that I use to sleep on nights when I'm dealing with stress. I set the sleep timer for 6 hours, and invariably get a good night of sleep.

Can you suggest some books like that?

Lately I've been using books from the "Dark Tower" series by Stephen King.

My thoughts on the book series aside, it's long, and I find the narrator rather soothing.

I'd absolutely check out samples first though. One person's soothing narrator is another person's grating narrator.
