Reading a book beside a swimming pool is a lovely way to spend a day, but there’s the worry of inevitable splashes.

No worries with this, Amazon’s latest Kindle is waterproof, so you can sit back and relax.

The Paperwhite is Amazon’s thinnest and lightest design yet, with a sleek flush-front display and a back made of soft, grippable material. Despite its dinky size, the Kindle has twice the storage of previous models, allowing you to store thousands of books, audiobooks, magazines and more.

If you’re a fan of an audiobook, you’ll also be happy to hear that the Kindle has Audible integrated, so you can easily find a book to listen to. This is definitely my new holiday essential – and at £119 it’s an absolute bargain.
