Heads up to anyone who loves to read or plans to spend the bulk of their summer weekends splayed out on a beach flicking through the latest thriller - Prime Day 2019 is coming up and is bound to have some deals to appeal to your bookworm-ish heart and savings-driven brain.

Because the yearly sales event is hosted by Amazon, it tends to favor Amazon devices and services, and that includes everything Kindle.

Kindle is Amazon's collection of tablet-like ebook readers. It's also an app that lets you read ebooks from your phone or any other type of tablet. Supplementing the devices and app is Kindle Unlimited, a monthly membership that gives you unlimited access to more books than you can count.

Prime Day 2018 deal: n/a

Amazon's most expensive and advanced Kindle e-reader has not been on sale in previous years, but it never hurts to hope for Prime Day 2019. Without any deals, it's expensive, but we still call it the best e-reader you can buy right now because it's incredibly light, has an impressive battery life, and the asymmetrical design makes it easy to turn pages. It has a glare-free, 300 ppi resolution display, plus it's waterproof.
