You can get The Giver by Lois Lowry for $.25 right now. This is a Newbery Medal book and the reviews are really excellent.
Here is a quick summary:
In a world with no poverty, no crime, no sickness and no unemployment, and where every family is happy, 12-year-old Jonas is chosen to be the community’s Receiver of Memories. Under the tutelage of the Elders and an old man known as the Giver, he discovers the disturbing truth about his utopian world and struggles against the weight of its hypocrisy. With echoes of Brave New World, in this 1994 Newbery Medal winner, Lowry examines the idea that people might freely choose to give up their humanity in order to create a more stable society. Gradually Jonas learns just how costly this ordered and pain-free society can be, and boldly decides he cannot pay the price.
How do you find these deals on the website? I know that the coupon bloggers, like you, alert us, but is there a way to look for deals like this if I go to Amazon.com?
Margot,
I don’t know how others find them but I invest a lot of personal time just looking through the Kindle books that Amazon offers. I watch what new books come out, what the best sellers are and just comb through list after list. Plus they offer the one discounted book per day so I literally check every single day.

One of my favorite books of all time! And while I’m normally against getting these wonderful books on my tablet – since they are ones I will absolutely be buying in print – I jumped at this chance. Thank you!
My husband and I were just talking about buying a Kindle and weren’t to sure cause we didn’t know if we could find deals on the ebooks. I love this book and now that I know they do have daily deals on books and that I can upload them to a Kindle when I purchase one I’m really excited to get my own Kindle! Thank you so much for posting this and investing all that time into find these deals, you’re a live saver! 🙂
If you’ve got kids headed for middle school, The Giver was required reading in my school district. You can plan ahead and be prepared!
Fabulous book. Really makes you think about having a pain free life. Makes you question abortion and euthanasia. Note this contains mature theme.
