Prime Day has come and gone yet again — the bi-annual shopping event (this time called as Prime Big Deal Days) took place on Oct. 8 and 9, but Amazon hasn't quit on the discounts on countless products across all categories even though the sale is technically over. One category you might not expect to see a lot of deals on is books, but that's exactly what we're seeing on Amazon's website right now. (Amazon did start as an online bookstore, so it kind of makes sense.)

We’ve found tons of book titles from a wide variety of genres that are still on sale, from bestselling novels to nonfiction and children's books. Kindle and e-book editions are up to 80% off their typical list prices, while hardcover and paperback books are seeing discounts of up to 50% off.

Here are some of the best book deals that captured our attention, but make sure to check back as we're updating our stories after the event.

Best book deal overall

'Atomic Habits' by James Clear
$9.33 at Amazon
$27.00 Save $17.67
with on-page coupon

Why we like it

If you’re not into self-help books, James Clear’s Atomic Habits might not be on your radar. But this is one of the best nonfiction titles to come out within the past few years, and it's currently 65% off in hardcover — thanks to a new on-page coupon.

This book is all about teaching yourself to build good habits, break bad ones, and generally become more focused, productive, and successful in your daily life. And at less than $10 for the hardcover, it’s a steal.

'Oona Out of Order' by Margarita Monitmore
$2.99 at Amazon
$17.99 Save $15.00

Why we like it

New Year's Eve is the perfect night to set new intentions for the upcoming year. Nineteen-year-old Oona felt this way in 1982, awaiting the beginning of 1983 when she'd be faced with the decision of heading to London to study economics or stay put in Brooklyn, perusing music and spending time with her boyfriend. But before the clocks strikes midnight, Oona faints and wakes up 32 years later.

Follow along with the time traveling adventure in Oona Out of Order by Margarita Montimore. You can get the Kindle edition for just $2.99 to own it outright, discounted from the normal price of $17.99.
