Amazon just launched a massive book sale — save up to 65% on Editors' Picks titles
Did you celebrate Earth Day a few days ago? It's great that you care enough to tend to the planet — now how about cultivating your mind? And don't make me ask about that 2025 resolution of yours to read more. Sorry-not-sorry if any of these admonitions seem guilt-trippy, but they're in the service of letting you know that the Amazon Book Sale is live now through April 28 and, well, you won't get a better chance anytime soon to build some brain cells while saving some serious you know, Amazon doesn't do anything small, so we're seeing a ton of titles on sale at mind-melting markdowns. To wit: You can score up to 65% off children's books, including a 50%-off steal on the complete How to Train Your Dragon box set. Another box-set deal? A stunning 51% off the entire Three-Body Problem series. Like Colleen Hoover? Well, you can snag nearly every one of her titles for at least 40% off (and by the time you're finished reading the first one, she'll have written three more). Are you partial to tales of senior citizens freelancing on the homicide beat? Books one through three of Robert Thorogood's Marlow Murder Club series are marked down 31, 50 and 55%, respectively.
I've perused tens of thousands A LOT of books and curated a particularly compelling collection. Nearly all are recent publications, with a few gems from the recent past tossed in. All are Amazon Editors' Picks or otherwise critically lauded reads.
I've included paper-and-ink incarnations here, but you should know that the Amazon Book Sale is offering up to 80% off ebooks rated four stars or higher. You can also earn triple points on Kindle Rewards purchases through April 25 and new customers can sign up for Audible for just $0.99/month for the first three months. Oh, I've also highlighted some stellar sales on Amazon e-readers. But first: the books!
