For those of us with an endless appetite for reading, it can be an expensive hobby whether you're a fiend for hardcovers or dedicated to the e-reader life. Luckily, there's Libby and Kindle Unlimited, which can save you a pretty penny on all the latest arrivals. However, if you want to read exactly what you want and not wait around for your library holds to come through, it pays to splurge on an e-book.

Whether you need to escape your family or are headed on a holiday vacation, a fully stocked Kindle is a good Kindle. With Black Friday is inching closer and closer, the book deals are spectacular so you don't need to splurge either. Find top best-sellers — both fiction and non-fiction — for as low as $0.99. Here are the best early Black Friday deals on Kindle books.

When is Black Friday?

With Thanksgiving falling on Thursday, Nov. 28 of this year, Black Friday follows on Friday, Nov. 29.

However, you don't need to wait that long for deals. "Early Black Friday" deals have already started to roll out, giving a jumpstart to the shopping season. While in-store deals may kick-off on Nov. 29, online sales will run all month long.

Do you need a Kindle to read Kindle books?

Yes and no. Unlike a standard e-book that can be read on any device, Kindle books can only be read on Kindle devices or the Kindle app. The Kindle app gives you flexibility so you don't need to spend a hundred dollars on an e-reader. Although we do have to say, Kindles are totally worth it.

The Kindle app is available on iOS and Android devices so you can read Kindle books on your exisiting smartphone, tablet, or laptop.
