Need a beach read? Scoop up Emily Henry’s novel of the same name on sale during Amazon’s Book Sale, and scope out other great offers to stock your virtual library before summer break. The 2025 Book Sale is underway from April 23 to April 28, with plenty of deals on devices, subscriptions, like Audible and Kindle Unlimited, and books (both eBooks and physical copies).
Also: How to get Kindle Unlimited for just $3 over three months
With summer travel on the horizon, it’s a great time to find your next read and take advantage of Amazon’s Kindle Unlimited deal if you aren’t a member already. Kindle Unlimited grants you access to unlimited digital and audio books on any device, including your favorite Kindle e-reader or other devices like an iPhone or iPad. Plus, other services, like Audible, are seeing promo offers during the sale.
I was gifted a Kindle Paperwhite last year and received a free three-month Kindle Unlimited subscription.
Also: This Kindle accessory seriously elevated my reading experience, and it only costs $20
My Kindle and the Unlimited subscription have made it easy to get back into reading, and are excellent for accessing my books across multiple devices. While I still love a classic book now and then, I’ve been able to reserve my purchasing of physical copies to only books I desire to have in my long-term collection. My Kindle is now my go-to device for reading while commuting, traveling, and more, and I too will be scooping up some new titles (with savings) during Amazon’s Book Sale to fuel my summer reading.
During the sale, you can shop offers on popular titles like The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins, Great Big Beautiful Life by Emily Henry, and even the newest installment of The Hunger Games series, Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins. Many of these titles are also available on Audible or Kindle Unlimited, so if you take advantage of Amazon’s sign-up offers on either platform, you can enjoy the latest and greatest reads, too.
