Whether you’re a cozy home reader or a bookworm who’s always on the go, these five Kindle accessories are totally worth the hype.
I got my Kindle as a late birthday present to myself in late December last year so I would consider myself a newish Kindle user. I was stoked to finally get a Kindle and quit reading on my phone BUT everyone knows the best part of life is accessorizing!!
However, when I took to social media for ideas I quickly realized there were a million and one different accessories all promising different things and I had NO IDEA what was actually useful and what was a waste of money.
After six months I can confidently recommend these 5 Kindle accessories that I truly believe are worth the hype (and bonus! three I think you can skip!)

1. Clear Case —w/sticker accessories!
As previously stated accessorizing is the best part! So with a clear backing you can easily swap in & out various stickers that show off your current read, holiday, or general vibes!
Plus it adds a bit of grip so your Kindle doesn't slip out of your hands mid-chapter. Lightweight, sleek, and functional.
Want one with a cover? This clear one is the best of both worlds! With both a clear backing & simple folded cover (with color options!)
2. Page Turner Remote
Okay, hear me out: this page turner remote is for the ultimate cozy reader.
I thought it was insane at first too, but so seriously it has been a game changer for when you're reading in bed and soooo comfy you don't want to move not even to turn the pages.
So whether you're snuggled under a weighted blanket, soaking in the tub, or reading hands-free on a stand, this little Bluetooth remote lets you turn the page without even touching your Kindle.
Lazy? Maybe. Genius? Absolutely.
3. Bed Stand with Cup Holder
I know okay, I KNOW. This one feels crazy, and it looks even crazier but trusttttt me, its a game. changer.
A bed stand that holds your Kindle at the perfect height and angle is perfect for binge-reading at night. (combined with the above page turner helloooo)
And yes, the cup holder is the icing on top — because reading and tea (or wine, or diet Dr. Pepper) just go together. AND this one comes with a secondary cup for snacks.
4. PopSocket or Hand Strap
If you read one-handed while commuting, standing in line, or curled up sideways, a PopSocket or hand strap gives you a secure, comfy grip.
I prefer the strap since its easily removeable & won't cover up my cute stickers, but the PopSocket can be more secure/comfortable.
The PopSocket is also more customizable with various colors, shapes, & cute pics.
Travel Case
Your Kindle deserves a cozy home when it’s not in use — especially when you're on the move.
A travel case keeps it safe from scratches, spills, and overstuffed tote bags. This one comes with extra pockets to keep charging cords, headphones, or little stickers to hand out to Bookish friends you meet! (or at least that's what I use it for lol)
Three accessories you can SKIP:
Kindle Charms to be completely honest I don't see the appeal. I hate the idea of something dangling off my kindle while I read, and IMO they aren't even that cute. Feels like another over-consumption product force fed by the capitalism machine.
Kindle inserts okay this one comes with a caveat. I think these can be very cute but easily DIY'd. So save your money and get creative!
Desk stand while I completely see the use of a bed stand, I just can't imagine how often a desk stand would actually be used. (this counts for cases with kickstands)
If you're already a Kindle fan, these accessories will make you love it even more. They’re practical, stylish, and perfect for bookworms who like to read anywhere and everywhere.
