Amazon Kindle

$104 (original price:$110)

This e-reader is super easy to carry and packed with great features. The screen is 6 inches in size, has no glare in the sun and feels just like reading real paper. You can adjust the front light or switch to dark mode for late-night reading. Plus, you can say goodbye to annoying work emails and social media pings while you read. A single charge gives you up to six weeks of battery life, and the 16 GB of storage can hold thousands of books.

Amazon recently released a newer version with a flush-front screen that starts at $150, but the above deal on the 2024 model is still an amazing steal if you want to keep your wallet happy.

If you don’t want to tote around a dedicated reading device and would instead prefer a multitasker, take a peek at our list of the best October Prime Day tablet deals.
