Tis the season for reading non-stop. February tends to be a month marked by chilly temps and hibernation vibes. Instead of fighting those feelings, why not use this month to catch up on book titles you’ve been putting off for a later time? If you’ve been contemplating upgrading to an e-reader, one of Mashable’s favorite models is on a great sale today.

As of Feb. 3, the Kobo Clara Colour is on sale for $139.99 at Amazon, marked down from the list price of $159.99. That’s a 13% discount that takes $20 off the price. It also matches the record-low at Amazon.

On Mashable’s list of the best e-readers, the Kobo Clara Colour earns the honor of our favorite Kobo model. Recently launched in white, the Kobo Clara Colour is an excellent e-reader if you’re looking for a color-capable model in a compact size.

Mashable’s review of the Kobo Clara Colour gives it points for having a matte, glare-free display with the perfect screen size. The Clara’s six-inch display is smaller than the Paperwhite which means it might fit better in your hand. Mashable Shopping Reporter Samantha Mangino wrote, “In testing the Kobo Clara Colour, I put away my Kindle Paperwhite for a few weeks and was surprised but how much I didn’t miss it. It was refreshing to use a smaller e-reader that truly felt handheld,” she wrote. “The six-inch screen is smaller than the Paperwhite’s, but I didn’t miss the extra real estate. In fact, it was a worthy sacrifice for how comfortable it felt to hold.”

The smaller size means this is also more travel friendly compared to the Amazon models. Plus, Kobo recently launched the Kobo remote, which makes it the only e-reader with a native remote. From personal experience, I can tell you it’s ultra convenient to use the remote with the Clara Colour. Plus, it’s only $29.99.

While it’s on sale for Valentine’s Day, grab the Kobo Clara Colour e-reader and take off on a reading journey for the rest of winter. Load it up with free books from Libby and you’ll be set for months.
