While you can’t replace the feel of paper, the beauty of bound hardcovers, and the ritual of turning the page, an e-reader brings convenience and portability that a book just can’t beat. Sure, you can throw a book in your tote bag, but what about an entire library?

If you’re gearing up to read more books in 2025, an e-reader will help you get there, and these are the best ones you can buy.
