Looking for your next read? How about your next two?

While e-book and audiobook deals are dominating our content lately, physical books still hold a special untouchable place in our hearts. If physical page turning is what gives you that dopamine hit, Target's current book sale could help you add to your TBR list without breaking the bank.

Through May 11, Target is running a buy one, get one 50% off sale on select books exclusively for Target Circle members. And that's on top of most books already being discounted. If you're not already a Circle member, you can join for free by simply filling out your name, email address, phone number, and creating a password. Then you'll be able to take advantage of the BOGO 50 book sale and plenty of other Circle-exclusive offers.

There are tons of bestsellers, new releases, and BookTok favorites included in the sale, including Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins, Funny Story by Emily Henry, Wild Love by Elsie Silver, and A Little Life by Hanya Yanagihara. And since most eligible books are already discounted significantly, you could definitely do some damage during the sale. For instance, hardcover copies of Sunrise on the Reaping and Funny Story would normally run you $56.99. Through May 11, however, Circle members can score both for just $30.39.
