Cyber Week has come and gone, but that doesn't mean all good discounts have fully disappeared. If you enjoy reading and like to take a book with you wherever you go, then it might be worth considering investing in a great e-reader option. Amazon has just slashed its latest Kindle Paperwhite to just $135 right now, and it makes a great holiday gift for anyone who loves to read. That price is only $5 more than its all-time low of $130, and still an excellent deal that saves you $25 over the usual asking price of $160.
The Kindle Paperwhite is Amazon's latest e-reader and features a 7-inch glare-free screen for comfortable reading in various lighting conditions. It's available in black, jade and raspberry, but this current discount applies only to black Kindle Paperwhite orders and is for ad-supported e-readers. The ad-free Kindle Paperwhite is only $155 right now and is also $25 off its regular asking price of $180.

Regardless of which version of the Paperwhite you choose, you'll get a battery life of up to 12 weeks on a single charge, a larger screen area, and high-contrast for a more book-like experience. The Paperwhite includes both white and amber light settings so you can adjust to dark or bright conditions. It's also waterproof so you can read by the pool or at the beach. Amazon also increased the speed of page turns by 25%, which is great news for anyone who needs to get to the next page on an amazing book.
