Calling All Digital Bookworms! Best Bargains on E-books and E-readers

Looking for an e-book reader (also known as an e-reader) but don't know which to choose? Here's a list of top models and places to get the best book deals!

All of the devices listed below are competitively priced and offer long battery life—and are perfect for those who simply love to do one thing on tablets: read!

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite—The most popular, versatile e-book reader has made several improvements in its latest version, including an eight-week battery life, improved contrast, and a lighter weight. While Kindle is the uncontested best seller, some users dislike the fact that other formats can't be easily used on the device. But with a software program called Calibre, many files can be converted to Kindle format. From $119*

Barnes & Noble Nook GlowLight—If you don't want to buy into Amazon's "ecosystem" or want to see ads on entry-level products, the Nook is worth considering. It boasts a slim design, eight-week battery life, and patented e-ink technology for reading in light or dark environments. And you can use Calibre to convert other file formats to your device.
From $119*

Kobo Glo—An excellent Kindle or Nook alternative, offering nearly identical features, but handling Kindle, Nook and open source EPUB (short for electronic publications) files right out of the box. The Glo is the lightest design of the three, and the memory storage can be upgraded to hold over 30,000 books, well above its competitors. From $129.99*

The Kindle, Nook and Kobo also offer apps for reading your compatible, purchased book collections on your desktop or laptop, smart phones and tablet devices. Free

Finding E-book Bargains
Once you know how to use your new e-book and convert files with Calibre, you're ready to find some e-books to fill your library. Rather than sift through dozens of book retailers to find the best price, make Inkmesh your very first stop. Inkmesh does all the price comparing for you, searching over 30 retailers—and growing—as well as checking with free e-book sites like Project Gutenberg.

BookBub is an e-reader's dream. Receive daily emails featuring up to five flash sales on popular titles—all based on your interests and compatible e-reader! Get full-priced retail e-books for usually less than three dollars, or even free.
