I'll say this upfront: these Kindle deals were cheaper on Black Friday. However, (almost) every Kindle model is currently discounted, so it's a great chance to grab one of the best e-readers if you missed out on those Black Friday deals.

The holidays are coming up, and nothing is more enjoyable this time of year than a good book. Right now, Kindles are on sale with up to 33% off at Amazon. The cheapest deal is on the basic Kindle for $89 at Amazon ($20 off,) or you can grab our best-reviewed model, the Kindle Paperwhite on sale for $134.

The Amazon Kindle is one of the smallest and most lightweight e-readers around. With a crisp display and 6-week battery life, this is the Kindle to buy for shoppers on a budget. Amazon is even throwing in three months of Kindle Unlimited. We wish this Kindle was waterproof, though, but you can't beat that low price.

Amazon's previous-gen Kindle Scribe comes with a Premium Pen that lets you annotate, write notes and draw on your e-books.
