Prime Day is back – the biennial shopping event (this time known as Prime Big Deal Days) takes place on October 8th and 9th and Amazon is already offering discounts on tons of products across all categories. One category you probably wouldn't expect to see many deals in is books, but that's exactly what we're seeing on the Amazon website right now. (Amazon did Start as an online bookstore, so it kind of makes sense.)

We've found loads of book titles currently on sale across a range of genres, from best-selling novels to non-fiction and children's books. Kindle and e-book editions are up to 80% off standard list prices, while hardcover and paperback editions are up to 50% off. And that is before the official start of Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days.

Here are just a few of the book deals we've noticed so far:

Overall the best book deal

Why we like it

If you're not interested in self-help books: James Clears Atomic Habits may not be on your radar. But this is one of the best nonfiction titles to come out in recent years, and the hardcover is currently 49% off.

This book is about teaching yourself to build good habits, break bad ones, and generally become more focused, productive, and successful in your daily life. And at just $13.79 for the hardcover, it's a steal.

Best book bundle deal

Why we like it

Whether you have children or are an adult looking to add another classic book series to your collection, Dr. Seuss's Beginner Book Boxed Set Collection: The Cat in the Hat; One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish; Green eggs and ham; Hop on Pop; Fox in socks is on sale for just $26.47.

These are five iconic Dr. Seuss books for under $30, which is a great deal considering each of these books typically sell individually for around $9 to $12.

This book set is the perfect gift for new parents, birthdays, holidays or simply as an addition to the family library.

Best Kindle deal

Why we like it

If you've ever mumbled that for 24 hours wasn't enough time in one day, Oliver Burkeman Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals – currently 84% off the price of the Kindle edition – could be just the book for you.

This book contains a lot of “life hacks” that can help you prioritize your time and find what's really worth it – it's kind of the anti-productivity book. If you're overwhelmed by the constant demands on your time and attention, this e-book promises to help you take back control and get more done.

You can get it for free with a Kindle Unlimited subscription, or pay just $2.99 ​​to own it outright.
