Consider to get the paperwhite for the background feeling like the newspaper or real book. Paperwhite is not much more and it's on sale very often. You can spend $20-$25 for a 2015 Kindle PaperWhite first from Woot (search for this here at SD) for the experience then trade-in for 20% off for the latest edition. I have both of them.

Pretty good price, especially considering recent reviews that say the base Kindle is now almost as good as the Paperwhite.

Any cheap cases that add some bulk to this, specifically the left side so you can hold it like a book.

Noob question. Does this need ambient light from the room you're in to read? Or does this emit it's own light to read in complete darkness?

Look for the 2015 Paperwhite on Woot for 25 bucks, which is basically this.

This has an adjustable backlight but you can only adjust the brightness and not the color temp.

I would say, yes, a kindle is totally worth the investment. It offers you distraction-free reading. More convenient than carrying an actual book around, a kindle can increase the amount of reading you do.

Did a lot of research today between this Kindle and the new Paperwhite which is also on sale for $84.99. Ultimately went with the Paperwhite for a few more bucks as I had a trade in which gave me $25 towards the prime deal.

The Paperwhite, having more space to read, with better illumination makes for a better experience when you get down to reading. The waterproofing adds peace of mind that you won't ruin your precious Kindle too. About the only downside of the Paperwhite is that the seamless front means it's a little less distinct when turning pages. The Kindle can lag when changing pages and does not have a display temperature adjustment for warm lighting (night reading). Best budget option is the Kindle, but for a few more bucks, just get the new Paperwhite if you will be bringing it around with you.

Bonus round: For $105, you can get the Kids version and set it up as an adult. It comes with free books subscription, extended warranty and an included case with limited color options.

That deal is dead. Woot also sent me a 2016 kindle with a disgusting crust around the screen instead of a 2015 Paperwhite.
