The Amazon Kindle Paperwhite is the all-around, cost-effective, PDF-reading champ. At $99 the Paperwhite has tons of reading options from the tie-in Kindle Store to a neat vocabulary builder. She'll never go without a book in her hand ... and something new to lecture you about on her weekly phone call.
Here's an excerpt from our review:
The 6th generation Kindle Paperwhite is the best Kindle yet, it's the most cost effective e-reader on the market at $119 (in this spec range) and it easily beats the Kobo Aura on performance and design. Amazon has managed to create a fast e-ink tablet with inventive reading apps.

With built-in sleep tracking and what is essentially a supped up pedometer, she'll be able to count her carbs, track her crunches, and make sure she's getting the best sleep possible. $89 is a cheap price to make sure mom makes it to 100, right? Because in like, a decade, 100 will be the new 40.
