Tons of Kindle books are on sale with Amazon Gold Box

Every month, Amazon organizes a Gold box promotion for Kindle books, where you can save a ton of money and get them for $3.99 or less. Most of the titles are from authors you’ve heard of, and there are plenty of bestsellers on the list. If you’re looking to build your Kindle collection, now is the perfect time to do it. Deals expire at 11:59 a.m., so you’ll want to take advantage of the 80% savings ASAP.

There are 105 Kindle books on the Gold Box page today. They cover a myriad of genres such as mysteries, fiction, romance, fantasy, biographies, adolescence, and spirituality. Many of the books are Amazon Editors Picks, so they’ve been vetted by their in-house team. Most books have between 5,000 and 30,000 reviews, left by people who have actually purchased the book. I would probably recommend Stranger in a Lifeboat and Summer in Sonoma.

If you missed this offer, no worries. You might want to take advantage of Amazon First Reads Program for July. Prime members can download books before they’re officially released, and each costs just a buck or two. There is normally a list of 10 books and you can choose to buy and download up to two of them. These books come from Amazon impressions, so you won’t really find any bestsellers on this list, but you can discover some cool new authors.
