Amazon Launches Massive Six-Day Book Sale

Amazon has launched a new six-day shopping event, Amazon Book Sale , running from May 15–20 this year and feature deep discounts on thousands of books. The sale, touted by the company as "The Book Sale of Your Dreams," includes up to 50% off print bestsellers, up to 60% off overstock books, and up to 80% off Kindle Books.

In addition to books, the sale is being used to market such other book-related items as Kindle Scribe, Amazon's new e-book reader/notetaker. And unlike Amazon's hugely popular Prime Day, the Amazon Book Sale is open to all Amazon customers, not just Amazon Prime members. (The Amazon Book Sale site does, however, include a link for shoppers to learn more about Prime Day.)

To promote the event Amazon began offer early deals, including three months of Kindle Unlimited for free, on May 9. Those deals include:

• Up to 80% off Kindle editions of titles recommended by the Amazon Books Editors
• Up to 75% off select titles by such BookTok favorite authors as Alexis Hall, Sarah J. Maas, and Rebecca Serles
• Up to 70% Kindle editions of select celebrity memoirs, such as Viola Davis's Finding Me and Molly Shannon's Hello Molly!
• Up to 60% Kindle editions of "popular book club picks," such as The Christie Affair and Good Company
• Up to 50% off popular book-to-screen titles, such as American Prometheus , The Lord of the Rings , and Red, White & Royal Blue
• Up to 40% off select classics, such as Pride and Prejudice and The Republic
• Up to 40% on children's graphic novels, such as Serena Blasco's Enola Holmes and Mariah Marsden's The Secret Garden
• 29% off select Kindle Scribe devices

With the launch of the sale proper , the e-tailer has rolled out further deals, including:

• 55% off the special collector’s edition of Colleen Hoover’s It Ends with Us and 50% off Leia Stone’s House of Ash and Shadow , as part of sales on books trending on #BookTok and #Bookstagram
• 60% off Lisa Jewell’s None of this is True and 50% off Stephanie Land’s Class: A Memoir of Motherhood, Hunger, and Higher Education as part of sales on Amazon Books Editors' Picks
• 60% off Britney Spears’s The Woman in Me and 50% off Elliot Page’s Pageboy as part of sales on celebrity titles
• Up to 55% off select nominees and winners from the most recent Goodreads Choice Awards

The sale is the latest books-related initiative from Amazon, the e-tail giant whose business focus has expanded well beyond the bookselling space in which it cut its teeth as a fledgling e-tailer. In December 2023, the retail giant launched its Your Books feature, which tracks all of customers' print, Kindle, and Audible book purchases; generates recommendations based on their reading activity; and provides "insights" into reading habits. Doubling down on algorithmic recommendations, earlier this month, the Amazon-owned Audible launched a new feature that recommends audiobook titles based on users' Prime Video viewing activity. A representative of Amazon told PW that it "will not speculate" on whether the e-tailer may make the new book sale an annual affair.

The launch of Amazon Book Sale is sure to draw the attention of all segments of the industry, and perhaps especially the bookselling side. The American Booksellers Association is seeking to add book retailers to the Federal Trade Commission's antitrust complaint against Amazon, which currently does not address what Amazon's practices have done to book retailing in general and to independent bookstores in particular. In announcing the ABA's motion to intervene with the FTC lawsuit, ABA CEO Allison Hill noted that, since Amazon's launch in 1994, the number of indie bookstores in the U.S. has declined by around 64%—from 7,000 to 2,500.

Is It Better to Rent or Buy? A Financial Calculator.

By Mike Bostock ,  Shan Carter ,  Archie Tse and Francesca Paris May 10, 2024

The choice between buying a home and renting one is among the biggest financial decisions that many adults make. But the costs of buying are more varied and complicated than for renting, making it hard to tell which is a better deal. To help you answer this question, our calculator, which was updated in May 2024 to reflect current tax law, takes the most important costs associated with buying or renting and compares the two options. Note that the “winning choice” is the one that makes more financial sense over the long run, not necessarily what you can afford today. And there are plenty of reasons you might want to rent or buy that are not financial — all we can help you with is the numbers.

To view this feature, please use a newer browser like Chrome , Firefox or Internet Explorer 9 or later.

The calculator keeps a running tally of the most common expenses of owning and renting. It also takes into account something known as opportunity cost — for example, the return you could have earned by investing your money. (Instead of spending it on a down payment, for example.) The calculator assumes that the profit you would have made in your investments would be taxed as long-term capital gains and adjusts the bottom line accordingly. The calculator tabulates opportunity costs for all parts of buying and renting. All figures are in current dollars.

Tax law regarding deductions can have a significant effect on the relative benefits of buying. The calculator assumes that the house-related tax provisions in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 will expire after 2025, as written into law. Congress might, however, extend the cuts in their original form, or extend and modify them. You can use the toggle to see how your results may vary if the tax cuts are renewed in full, to get a sense of how big the tax impact might be on your decision.

Initial costs are the costs you incur when you go to the closing for the home you are purchasing. This includes the down payment and other fees.

Recurring costs are expenses you will have to pay monthly or yearly in owning your home. These include mortgage payments; condo fees (or other community living fees); maintenance and renovation costs; property taxes; and homeowner’s insurance. A few items are tax deductible, up to a point: property taxes; the interest part of the mortgage payment; and, in some cases, a portion of the common charges. The resulting tax savings are accounted for in the buying total. If your house-related deductions are similar to or smaller than the standard deduction, you’ll get little or no relative tax savings from buying. If your house-related deductions are large enough to make itemizing worthwhile, we only count as savings the amount above the standard deduction.

Opportunity costs are calculated for the initial purchase costs and for the recurring costs. That will give you an idea of how much you could have made if you had invested your money instead of buying your home.

Net proceeds is the amount of money you receive from the sale of your home minus the closing costs, which includes the broker’s commission and other fees, the remaining principal balance that you pay to your mortgage bank and any tax you have to pay on profit that exceeds your capital gains exclusion. If your total is negative, it means you have done very well: You made enough of a profit that it covered not only the cost of your home, but also all of your recurring expenses.

Initial costs include the rent security deposit and, if applicable, the broker’s fee.

Recurring costs include the monthly rent and the cost of renter’s insurance.

Opportunity costs are calculated each year for both your initial costs and your recurring costs.

Net proceeds include the return of the rental security deposit, which typically occurs at the end of a lease.
