The best early Black Friday book deals to add to your cart
Table of Contents
If you're looking to stack your TBR list for cozy season — or help someone else stack theirs — it's time to get going. Although Black Friday is technically on Nov. 28, there are plenty of book deals you can shop early.
While I'm still not overly impressed by Kindle edition and hardcover deals, there are some pretty impressive discounts on paperbacks that are already live. I compared the prices with those from Amazon's October Prime Day and only included titles that are worthy of the "Black Friday deal" stamp. I'll be keeping an eye out for new deals to drop as we get closer to Black Friday proper — particularly on some of 2025's bestsellers and BookTok favorites. But for now, I've rounded up some of the top early Black Friday book deals you can already add to your cart.
Also of note: Amazon is offering three months of Kindle Unlimited for only 99 cents (save $35.97) and three months of Audible Premium Plus for 99 cents per month plus a $20 credit (save $41.88) to new and returning subscribers. Kindle devices are also chilling at new all-time low prices (be sure to check out our e-reader expert's top picks). You can follow along with all of the best deals in Mashable's Black Friday hub.
Best early Black Friday book deal
Why we like it
Most of the books on Goodreads' and Amazon's top books of 2025 lists haven't gotten the deal treatment yet. Sure, they're slightly discounted, but I think they can do better. In the meantime, the best way you can save some money on some of this year's bestsellers and BookTok favorites is with this BOGO deal at Amazon. With over 1,000 included titles, you'll save 50% on one book when you purchase two from the list of select hardcovers and paperbacks. Some notable titles included in the list are Buckeye by Patrick Ryan, Broken County by Clare Leslie Hall, The Names by Florence Knapp, and Heart the Lover by Lily King. To secure the savings, just add any two titles from the sale page to your cart, and the offer will automatically be applied at checkout.
