Ok, this is completely essential for me. I use it all of the time. I have zero complaints. You will want the one without ads because you can actually get your current read as your lockscreen otherwise ads will be on your lockscreen all the time.

I love reading my Kindle at the beach/pool and this doohickey keeps me from dropping it and getting it full of sand or water. Yes, Kindles are waterproof but I would rather not risk anything.

This changed the game for me. I LOVE reading when my family is sleeping for the quiet, so this in the dark, saved my arms from pain and freezing. Quick tip: add the tape on this list too, the blue light will probably annoy you in the dark every time ...
