Whether you're an avid reader or just want to stay home and pass the time, Amazon has a great Kindle sale this week that you won't want to miss

For a limited time, the Amazon Kindle is on sale for $5999 This is $30 off and is the cheapest Kindle sale we have seen so far Amazon is also offering the Kindle Paperwhite for $9499 That's $35 off and the second cheapest Kindle Paperwhite deal we've seen Both sales include a free three-month period of Kindle Unlimited, which provides access to over one million titles, magazines, and audiobooks

The Kindle Paperwhite is one of the best Kindles you can buy, with a 6-inch anti-glare 300ppi display, 5LED front light, and 8GB of storage for thousands of books It's IPX8 waterproof and can take a splash

In our review of the Kindle Paperwhite, we liked the bezel-height screen, waterproof design, and Bluetooth capability for audiobooks Our lab tested the Kindle Paperwhite's water resistance by submerging it in a pail of water; after 20 minutes in the water, the e-reader continued to work and responded well to page turns It was as if it had been dry the whole time

The base Kindle, on the other hand, has a 6-inch glare-free display, 4LED front light, and 4GB of storage; unlike the Paperwhite, the base Kindle is not waterproof
