The best Kindle accessories to give a reader in 2025

Giving a Kindle this holiday season? If so, we’re giving you the best gifter of the year. An e-reader is for both the bookworm and the techie, looking for a more portable library. The Kindle itself is a spectacular gift, but if you’re looking to build out your present a little more, you have some options.

Kindles are one of our favorite devices here at Mashable, so we rounded up a list of gifts perfect for the Kindle user. These are gifts we’d actually want to receive with our Kindle, not just something that gets shoved in a back corner.

Amazon Gift Card

To be fair, gift cards are usually a cop out gift, but in the case of a Kindle, we actually recommend it. To purchase books for your Kindle, you’ll do that on Amazon or the Kindle app, and either way, it’s connected to your Amazon account. So an Amazon gift card means money to fill your Kindle library.

Kindle Unlimited

Ever dreamed of a streaming service but for books? That’s basically Kindle Unlimited. For $11.99 a month, you get access to millions of titles and are able to borrow up to 20 books at once. Current titles in the Kindle Unlimited collection include bestselling and acclaimed titles like The Housemaid by Freida McFadden, Yellowface by R.F. Kuang, and The Bee Sting by Paul Murray. You can gift Kindle Unlimited to your recipient for six, 12, or 24 months, starting at just $65.95.

USB charging block

Included in the box of your Amazon Kindle will be a USB-C to USB-A cord, but there’s no charging block included. Adding on an Anker charging block helps complete the package, plus this one includes both a USB-C and USB-A port so your recipient can charge multiple devices at once.

Page-turning remote

The newest trend in Kindle accessories is all about the remote page turner. When paired with a stand, you can keep your hands tucked under the blankets and away from the cold. Kobo released a remote for their e-readers, but Kindle is behind the curve, so in the meantime, you’ll have to go for a third-party brand. Not to worry, we’ve tried the Datafy remote page turner, and it’s a superb choice for bookworms looking to get cozy.

Tablet stand

To go with your page-turning remote, you’ll need a stand to go truly hands-free. Popular options include a floor stand or gooseneck stand, but while lurking on the Kindle subreddit, I found that some people prefer a bean bag tablet stand where you can store even more goodies, like your remote page turner.

A book cover that makes it feel like a real book

While most book lovers have come around to the e-reader, it’s still hard to let go of the feeling of holding a hardcover book. To emulate that feel, you can gift them a case that feels like a book. KleverCase’s e-reader cases are ornamental and vintage-inspired. Some pay homage to classics like Alice in Wonderland or homage to Wicked with a Grimoire-inspired cover.
