The currently available Paperwhite, a second-generation model, already has Goodreads support, gaining it last November. The update will roll out over the next few weeks to devices in the United States, Canada, and Australia.

Engadget noted that the update brings the original Paperwhite software up to par with the latest model and also includes Kindle FreeTime, which curates books for children and lets parents block time for them to read, Cloud Collections for organization and Page Flip for scanning content without losing your place. The Bookmarks, Highlights and Notes feature can now be accessed more quickly.
