When some people think of yoga, they
imagine having to stretch like a gymnast.
That makes them worry that they’re too old,
unfit, or “tight” to do yoga.
The truth is you’re never too old to improve
flexibility.

Before I Go to Sleep
by S. J. Watson
S. J. Watson makes his powerful debut with
this compelling, fast-paced psychological thriller, in
which an amnesiac who, following a mysterious accident,
cannot remember her past or form new
memories, desperately tries to uncover the truth about
who she is—and who she can trust.
