I used to read in bed, which is dandy because if you fall asleep (and I never did) that's the end of it. But I haven't been supposed to read for the last three months, so I'm doing a lot of audiobooks and I never knew they were such a soporific. At first I'd go to sleep and have no idea how much I'd missed, so I started using the sleep timer. Set it for half an hour, nod off, wake up in a while and shove it back to the last bit I remember and set the timer again. Lather, rinse, repeat. On a bad night, I end up listening to the same passages three or four times.
I tend to listen to old favorites to take my mind off other things when I have trouble sleeping. I hate having to find my place, especially when it's a Whispersync title I plan to read next on my Kindle! My current relisten is "As You Wish", the behind the scenes book about The Princess Bride film.
