title: The internet will do them in

text:
One of my greatest childhood memories involving horror movies concerns Fangoria magazine. You would think the recollection would have something to do with watching "Friday the 13th" or "Halloween" for the first time, and I do have those memories to keep me warm at night, but my first vivid impression of the shocking power of horror films hit me at the tender age of ten or eleven when I stumbled into the local drugstore and picked up a copy of this magazine. I don't remember what the cover looked like--surely it was one of the grotesque images Fangoria routinely plasters on the front cover that initially caught my eye--but I do recall thumbing through the magazine rather quickly in case the nosy cashier decided a youth of my tender years shouldn't look through such a gruesome publication. Immediately before I sat the magazine back on the rack, my eyes settled on a nauseating color photograph of one of those "axe in the head" effects so common in slasher films of the era. I suspect this still came from footage eventually excised from the theatrical cut, however, because it was far worse than what we usually see. I almost lost my lunch on the spot. Even today, I wish I knew which movie that scene came from.

This walk down memory lane aside, I'm ashamed to admit I never owned a copy of Fangoria until I received the latest issue as a Christmas gift. Issue 239 contains several articles of great interest to the horror fan. An interesting one-page story introduces the reader to Tartan films, a Scottish distribution firm planning on releasing a plethora of recent Asian horror films into the U.S. market. Another article interviews director David S. Goyer, the man behind the third installment of the "Blade" franchise. Following this up is another multi-page account of the latest Michael Keaton vehicle, "White Noise," due in theaters in early January. Lots of articles in this thing called Fangoria. "Alien" creator Dan O'Bannon receives a four-page treatment, primarily providing a short retrospective of his career and an announcement that he's returning to Hollywood. The eagerly awaited French slasher picture "Haute Tension" and the remake of John Carpenter's "Assault on Precinct 13" receive in-depth treatment, as does the latest Godzilla flick and the two low budget films made about the Bell Witch incident in Tennessee. There's even a story about how audiences will likely never see the new reincarnation of "Dark Shadows." All of these articles contain numerous photographs.

Shorter sections of the magazine relate information just as important to the hardcore horror fan as the longer articles. Several discuss recently released and upcoming DVDs, with a feature called "The Video Eye" giving four of these films lengthier reviews. The pick of the month is "Hole," a movie I myself am looking forward to seeing. Their review of another film on my must see list, "Frankenfish," is hilariously sarcastic. Other reviews, such as those found in the "DVD Dungeon," are much shorter. Included here is information on the Indonesian schlockfest "Dangerous Seductress" and Blue Underground's latest release "Mark of the Devil," to cite just two. That the Dungeon named "The Bride of Frank" their pick of the month amused me to no end. If you plan on picking up this shot on video monstrosity, take it from someone who has seen it: don't pop it into the player with family and friends around. Anyone who rates this sludge as a pick of the month is probably someone I'd like to know personally. Anyway, Fangoria does an excellent job of listing most major studio and shot on video DVD releases. They aren't as thorough as the numerous sites on the Internet, though, which is where my critique of the magazine comes in.

I sat down with Fangoria expecting great things and came away with mixed feelings. My biggest problem is with the articles. All of them are well written, carefully structured pieces with much information worth reading about, so that isn't what I'm going to complain about. What I didn't like is how they resemble studio press releases and the stuff you hear on the late night talk shows. Do I really need to pick up this magazine so I can hear the people involved with a film gush about their fellow co-workers? Or constantly state how big a fan of the genre they are? Of course they are going to say these things; they want the movie to do well in the theater by appealing to the fan base. I'd rather see some write ups about special effects work--we all know these guys are the real heroes of horror movies--than listen to some actor go on and on about how dead people might really be trying to contact us through our television sets. One thing I am glad about: I learned the Carpenter remake is a piece of left-wing propaganda I won't be shelling out money to see in the theater. In the fashion of true ideologues, the folks behind the new "Assault" decided to make corrupt cops the enemy storming the police station instead of gang members. Geez, I'm surprised they didn't have the vice-president and president laying down a challenge by throwing a pot of oil on the doorstep.

Fangoria, if this issue is any indication, might be facing serious trouble down the road. I can get all of this information and more from wonderful sites like bloodydisgusting, gorezone, and upcoming horror movies, and I can get it weeks before Fangoria hits the stands. I can even get lots of neat information from Fangoria's website, like their recent series of articles on the AFM event. The magazine is definitely a prime example of the old media we hear so much about lately. The times, they are a changin', as the saying goes. Hopefully, Fangoria will survive.


title: Left Oriented Magazine Entertains

text:
In June of 1850, a new magazine appeared on the American scene. Created by a New York publishing company called Harper & Brothers, the periodical received the appropriate name "Harper's Magazine." Over the years, the magazine began printing articles and stories from American authors, including William Dean Howells, Mark Twain, Theodore Dreiser, John Muir, Jack London, and many other big literary names immediately recognizable to readers of literature. Harper's also published news about the big stories of the day, such as an article written by Henry Stimson defending the use of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima. Astonishingly enough, the magazine nearly folded in 1980 until several big shots stepped in and rescued the periodical with grant money. Needless to say, Harper's Magazine still chugs along, and I recently subscribed to see what this historic publication looks like today. What I found both elated and bothered me. Harper's Magazine is an entertaining read, if the September 2003 edition is any indication, but at the same time the politics expressed in several of the entries left a slightly sour taste in my mouth.

The September issue overflows with articles about politics, book reviews, essays, letters from readers, pictures of artwork, and several excerpts from current literary efforts. There is even a doozy of a puzzle towards the end of the magazine for those who want to test their mental powers. It looks as though the editors of the magazine keep advertising to a minimum (a good thing), and there weren't any of those annoying, and sometimes perfumed, inserts you find in most magazines. Nothing kills a magazine quicker in my mind than detecting waves of some cheap cologne wafting off an article about politics or entertainment.

My favorite odor free articles in this issue of Harper's included a travelogue piece about Waziristan, a rugged region in Pakistan where Taliban exiles mix with hostile Pashtun tribes who possess a decidedly anti-American mentality. The article, written by an American woman, is slightly histrionic in its presentation but it is very informative. Sure enough, a week after I read this article someone on the news mentioned the region in the context of American anti-terrorism efforts, and I was happy to know something about it before hand. Another article worth mentioning is an essay about the public school system written by a retired teacher. The author of this piece derides the crushing boredom of the educational system for both students and teachers, and traces the development of our schools back to Prussia in the 18th and 19th century. While I disagreed with his political leanings, I did find his conclusion that our schools serve as factories to churn out good little sheep that only know how to shop relevant and satisfying. My favorite literary excerpt comes from an Israeli journalist named Oz Shelach, who wrote a book called "Picnic Grounds."  The excerpts come in bite sized little fragments that shed some insight into the problems between the Israelis and Palestinians, among other topics. Some of the stuff in this issue of Harper's Magazine is good reading material.

Regrettably, my politics do not mesh well with the staff at Harper's Magazine. I sighed aloud every time I saw a reference to identity politics, specifically in a literary critique about V.S. Naipaul written by Terry Eagleton. I should be fair and state that I saw a full page advertisement from a group seeking to limit immigration into the United States, and there is a critique of the new Norton Anthology of Modern and Contemporary Poetry that does question the inclusion of several poets who write about nothing except identity themes, so there does seem to be an attempt at balance. Overall, Harper's Magazine is definitely a left oriented publication. I think I can live with it now that I know what to look for in future issues, but for some people this might present a significant problem. One good aspect: while there may be a mess of leftists at the helm of this magazine, at least they still know how to have a laugh. Included in this issue is a description of an Italian board game about women of the night. Based on Monopoly, the Italians call this game "Puttanopoly," and the excerpts taken from the cards in the game are as hilarious as they are inappropriate for this review.

After finishing this issue of the magazine, I realized that even though I disagree with its politics, I am still looking forward to receiving my next issue. I read this magazine cover to cover in just a couple of days, and for the most part I felt I learned a lot about various topics in the process. You simply cannot resist the price offered here for a year's subscription, so give Harper's Magazine a chance. No matter what your outlook on life, I guarantee you will find something here to tickle your fancy.


title: I loved this magazine

text: I loved this magazine when I lived in Germany.  I hope Amazon US will carry it again soon.


title: The subscription is for 10 magazines

text: Although it is for 10 magazines , I only received 4. I hve not had any return emails to my complaints. I will NOT be renewing. Which is unfortunate, my 7 year old loved the ones she got and still likes reading them.


title: Dinos for days

text: Great articles and dinosaur artwork


title: Five Stars

text: a must have for the bride to be


title: Wonderful

text: I will thoroughly enjoy every issue


title: Intelligent, in-depth coverage

text: The depth of the articles covering the whole world is marvelous.  I love the thumbnail summaries of the week's news at the beginning,  which allow me to zero in on the detailed articles I want further on.


title: Great magazine

text: Wonderful magazine!


title: Got a dog. You need this.

text: Nice magazine for dog lovers. Only bi- monthly however.


title: This is a fantastic deal from Amazon!

text: $20 for a year sure beats double the price that others charge. And it is "Great" to have both the print and the kindle version for the same $20!


title: Reason review by Jerome Bigge

text: For a Libertarian like myself this is a great magazine.  Most likely one of the best out there today.  Libertarians should remember however that Libertarianism is both a "tool" and a means to measure everything relating to personal freedom.


title: Some good recipes

text: Ok not exactly what I thought. Lots of ads


title: Great

text: Got this for my Mom. She loves it! Wish I could find more magazines in French for her. Price is a little high but I think it comes from France.


title: I really like this mag

text: I really like this mag, but hate the extreme number of ads.  I realize that advertising supports the mag so I just suffer through them.<br />The ads are why it gets only 4 stars.


title: Interesting read

text: Interesting articles and recipes


title: Nice selection of articles

text:
Interesting articles all around.

A ton of of ads though, almost on every couple of pages but that's why the subscription was so cheap.

Good reading material, it's not Nat Geo but still good.


title: Wife loves this s*$!

text: My wife is a celebrity news (gossip) junkie :)  She absolutely loves this magazine, some of the opinion pieces where they try to insert a more classic review or story are pretty pointless though she claims.  Many of the article authors are just young and inexperienced.  Guess you gotta start somewhere!


title: It's gotten swiped from my waiting room in 5 minutes...

text:
for the first two issues I received, so I figure that means some girls like it an awful lot. No other magazine I pay for
has gotten stolen that quickly.  In the perverse world of logic,
I probably won't renew it as a result, and find something less popular (and which lasts longer in the waiting area)!

GC


title: Love these Magazine & the Cheapest Subscription Price Anywhere!

text: Great Magazine with wonderful recipes!


title: Love the Recipe Assortment but too many Advertisements in Magazine

text:
I love the All Recipe web site and have found a great number of fantastic recipes there.  So when this magazine subscription went on sale, I decided to try it out.  I received 2 issues so far and my biggest complaint is the amount of advertisements in the magazine!  The magazine is not very big and literally every other page is an advertisement with some ads having 2-3 pages!!  I get it, the companies' ads fund the magazine but honestly, it's annoying!  Does anyone even look at these ads???!

When my subscription ends, I will not be renewing.
I'll stick to the web site where I can find the recipes I need in an organized manner.


title: Revisited an old friend

text: I used to read Reader's Digest years ago and recently subscribed.  Have enjoyed the positive stories, vocabulary quiz and other humor columns.


title: OK but not as good as used to be

text: Magazine isn't what it used to be. But still enjoy it


title: Would Renew Again

text: I've subscribed to many food magazines for just a year to try them out. This has been by far my favorite. There are recipes that I would actually make but are made with real ingredients. I will probably ask for this one again and there are very very few magazines I would say that for!


title: Interesting and fun

text: Good mag for projects idea that r doable!!


title: Keeps me up to date.

text: I really enjoyed reading the "Where Are They Now Section" in this issue.

text: I was happy I was able to renew my Reader's Digest subscription for two years.  I love my reader's digest.  I read it at work from cover to cover.  I also take it to my doctor's appointments and to the beauty shop.


title: What gives

text: I signed up in August and I’ve not seen a magazine since August.  I assumed it was a year subscription.


title: Not very good

text: Does not give a complete listing


title: Propaganda Machine.

text: They should go back and re-read ‘Goofus and Galant’ from their golden years. Good Germans are who makes these propaganda magazines targeting kids fear. They should be ashamed of their own sickness. We’ve moved on.


title: More for decorators.

text: I usually subscribe to it but it seems a little too feminine for me.I guess it is good for interior designers and people renovating their house.


title: The price was good

text: The contents is informative and entertaining.


title: Excellent Magazine

text: Family Handyman provides a variety of information for all home owners and renters.  It covers small tips to large DIY projects with easy to follow directions and charts.  This makes a great gift for families.

title: Product as good as advertised...

text: So far I have only received one magazine, and so far so good....


title: Toss it!

text: Throwing this rag in the trash!


title: Not Your Great Grandfather's Strand

text: I was hoping for a nice mixture of Conan Doyle and Agatha Christie and other classic mystery.  Instead, you get contemporary (UGH) fiction.  The covers are great, but once you're inside, it's worthless.


title: Great Magazine!

text: I love this magazine. Recipes are interesting, fresh and inviting. I feel like they are actually doable. I can't wait to try them out. The magazine is well put together with fun articles. Good quality construction.


title: Recommending this magazine

text: I enjoy this magazine a lot. Family members like it as well. Thanks


title: The few articles are OK, but...

text: Unfortunately there aren't a lot of articles. It seems that this magazine surpasses the adult version in ads and in the photo spreads of cool new products and such. I understand they need to pay the bills, but how many bills can there be when there is so little content. I'm fairly disappointed.


title: Cute

text: Great Item!


title: Great Item!

bought this magazine for my daughter-in-law. She loves it . It has a lot of variety plus recipes which most of us like to have


title: Enjoyable read in each edition

text: Okay we should all way 0 lbs. by now if all of the headline diet articles featured each month worked. However the rest of the articles included are more reasonable and the tips are often helpful and factual. The magazine is overall uplifting and interesting.


title: Recipes easy

text: Great resource


title: Go Martha & Snoop

text: Too much advertising not enough information<br />Articles


title: Disappointing

text: Got my first one - even the "recommendations" read like ads -  I didn't feel like it had much real content.


title: Real Simple saves time and money

text:
I subscribed to Real Simple because of the way it was advertised.  It claimed to be a time and money saver.

Well, Real Simple lives up to its hype.  Every month I have found several time and money-saving ideas, over a variety of topics.  The subjects are relevant, and the content is easy to understand.
I'm glad I subscribe.

title: GREAT PRICE

text: I have not recieved the magazine yet but the price was great and the magazine has alot of information one should know-it helps.


title: Great recipe ideas.

text: Love the recipes!


title: Hard-hitting journalism found in too few places

text: If you want to keep up, be knowledgable, and stay ahead of the young ones in your life, read Rolling Stone.  Matt Taibi rocks!


title: Four Stars

text: It is a good read


title: Magazine has changed for the worse

text: I have subsribed to AD periodically over the years, and the magazine was always throughtful, entertaining and beautifully laid out.  Something drastic has happened to the publication and the quality is not what it used it be.  It's as if the publication is now thrown together by people that don't know what design is all about. I cancelled my subscription to AD; such a shame it became a cheap rag.


title: boring magazine

text: I found the magazine boring. It had some good ideas but I would have liked some interesting articles.


title: Five Stars

text: Good recipes


title: Five Stars

text: Relaxing


title: A little too Artsy

text: Well written, but a little too artsy, looking for more practical such as Pioneer Woman.


title: Cover Price: $182.00 ????

text: Aside from the outrageous price listed here as "Cover Price: $182.00," this is a decent magazine, giving just enough space to each soap to make it worth reading. The spoilers are interesting, and better than what some of the other magazines have. I think this is the one others try to keep up with.


title: Very Good Biz Periodical

text: I've read Forbes for more than 40 years.  It has been accused of "yellow" journalism but what I see is the unvarnished truth about companies and their leaders.


title: Unexpected magazine

text: Not what I expected! A great magazine highlighting different areas of the country in each issue. Informative and great pictures.


title: Great magazine gets worse over time!

text: Less content every year! The pages you do get are spread out with artsy layouts and little "meat"! I can remember when an issue kept me entertained for a good while, Also the subject matters too much on certain things not enough of others.  Long time, avid reader since 1950's.


title: Enjoyable and informative.

text: I really enjoy this magazine. It has many articles that come in handy. It is very informative. Not cluttered with advertisements!

text: Love these magazines! It’s so fun to get the newest ideas! Haven’t got to read them all but tryiing to get there!


title: Good value

text: Only got 1 yr subscription. Received all my copies. Nice reading entertainment.


title: Not receiving issues

text: I love this magazine. I subscribed myself and then 2 other people. Unfortunately its been 3 mo since I subscribed my friends. Neither of them has received any issues yet. When trying to notify Handyman about this all they had was online contact. According to their records they are saying my friends should have gotten 2 issues by now. They haven't received anything. I started my subscription last September and I have also only received 2 issues. Nothing has come since last year. There is no way to directly contact these people. I don't recommend paying for a subscription


title: For my mom

text: My 90 yr old mom loves this. I get it for her every year.


title: I LOVE it!

text: What a wonderful price for a subscription!!! I absolutely love this magazine but hadn’t received it for several years because I didn’t have the extra money. But for this price, I ordered it. And I’m so glad I did. Beautiful photos, appetizing recipes, and delivered right to my door every other month. What’s not to love??


title: All ads

text: Very few articles now. Mostly ads.


title: Just another version of GQ

text: Extremely similar to GQ, same publisher. You aren't going to get anything from this magazine that you don't get from GQ. Similar to GQ, lots of ads and minimal content.


title: Wire Jewelry Magazine

text: Purchased as a gift for my wife. It is clearly written which makes it easy to understand the projects. This is our second annual subscription.


title: A welcome bit of mail

text:
Vibrant Life is one of the few pieces of mail one doesn't mind collecting. There are few advertisements compared to other publications and they are specific to the lifestyle the magazine promotes. The articles are meaty enough to matter and light enough to read without "Google" in your lap.

The subjects are about healthful living from every perspective: diet, exercise, living space, environment, and spirituality, as well.

Sadly, only six issues per year, but at least you have time to read and digest the information before the next one arrives (all shiny and inviting).


title: Love it!

text: It's a Great magazine, beautiful artwork, always fun to see all the great artists each month, good articles too.  Always enjoy!


title: Good Old Days!

text: Good Old Days is filled with many fun stories!


title: Three Stars

text: it's okay


title: Magazine=a giant tax right off so the publisher can travel

text: So, this is a well-honed scam, in my opinion.  The publisher works every-so-often so that she and her staff can take these great photo trips and then right off the costs as part of her "business".  I tried and tried to get my magazine, but it never came.  I went to the website and saw the podcast from the publisher, telling us that we should contact her directly if she can be of any help.  Ya, right.  In my opinion, this is a giant scam.


title: Four Stars

text: I like it


title: Vapid advertising rag

text: This suddenly started appearing in my mailbox again recently, though I never ordered it.  Alternates between recipes to make you fat and information on losing fat.  No fiction any more - the only reason I read it years ago.  Incredible amounts of advertising though.  Just another thing to toss straight into recycling with all the bulk mail.

text: I buy this magazine for my 40ish Silicon Valley son and he devours every issue. Great ongoing Christmas gift.


title: Soaps in Depth - ABC

text: After many, many, many, years of going back and forth looking at the racks of magazines at the check out lanes I can finally just wait for the magazine to be delivered!  The only thing I don't care for is that they have interviews and articles about actors who haven't been on any of the ABC soaps.  I have watched all 3 soaps (including Port Charles) beginning in 1969.  There weren't any VCRs and I was teaching, so I could only watch during vacations or on sick days until the birth of my sons.  There were other teachers in the building who also watched so we kept each other up to date as best as we could.  Instead of non ABC actors I would rather have more updated interviews and photos with the old actors starting from the beginning of the ABC soaps.  I also finally took out a subscription to Soap Opera Digest..

title: Mom loves it

text: I wish more magazines published large print versions. It does cost a bit more, but lets face it, advertisers aren't going to pay to be seen by the over 80 crowd.


title: Do-it -yourself

text: Good magazine, it gives you lots of tips and ideas.


title: F&S

text: I love the magazine, but I'm not too fond of automatic renewal.  I will probably do it differently next year.


title: Best Computer Magazine by Far!!!!

text: Been reading this magazine for years and have built 3 computers for myself over the last 5 years using product reviews and advice given by the writers of this magazine. I have found the contributors to be knowledgeable and thorough in their reviews and impartial in their findings. Best PC magazine by far!


title: I STILL DON'T KNOW HOW IT IS

text:
I ordered the magazine some time ago, and AMAZON showed it as shipped on the 18th of August- it is a solid month past that date and no magazine has arrived.  The delivery date on the page showing my purchase now shows the year 2037 (No, really it does) so this is a bit like one of those pre-paid college funds- if you think your kids might take up shooting, order now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I PLAN TO UPDATE THIS SHOULD I EVER ACTUALLY RECEIVE AN ISSUE.

I FINALLY RECEIVED AN ISSUE ON OCTOBER THE 7TH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The magazine is mostly advertising.  Two articles on older shotguns (SXS & Pumps), one in remembrance of a passed shooter (that had ads along with it), shooting stats, some good old days stuff, and reloading the 16 guage.  Pages and pages of ads.  Don't get me wrong, enjoyable rag- but.....


title: good mag

text: Arived on time, as described, good mag

Like fishing Florida without the trip.
Pluses: Low cost, Great articles, great fish photos, good mix - boat reviews, fishing techniques, new equipment , humorous closing article
Minuses: Lots of boat beanbag advertisements


title: Informative

text: Lots of good useful information


title: Five Stars

text: A gift


title: Don't waste your money

text: Three hours of prime time listings.  Not worth it.


title: Unsubscribed

text: The new Cycle World layout and design is trying to look like a high class matte magazine. I subscribed on and off for years and I think this is going to be an off period for awhile. Cycle World was about motorcycles and hard facts but now the writing style is more like a classic novel. They did leave the same lowbrow advertising in the back though...


title: Fabulous magazine with a few ads

text: They have put out a fabulous magazine. The pages are thick and there aren’t a lot of advertisements! They have been beautifully done and you will not regret ordering them!


title: Five Stars

text: My husband love the Backpacker, he read it all the time. He gets lots information about camping from it.


title: HGTV - The Magazine!

text: HGTV is one of our favorite networks.  We like the renovation shows, Property Brothers, House Hunters, etc.  Thought we would like the magazine, but, no!!  The magazine deals mostly with design and designers.  As a more traditional person, I have found very few, if any, ideas that I would actually use from the magazine.  I absolutely cannot see painting a beautiful wood secretary bright pink or orange or anything else.  I also can't see painting my kitchen cabinets pink.  So for me, this magazine just doesn't do it.  I don't plan to renew this subscription.


title: it is the right magazine

text: it came 3 weeks earlier than the first issue was supposed to arrive, it was the same one that i picked up at Wal-mart 2 weeks beforehand, i hope that it isn't always the last issue. i was hoping for a more advance than the stores. but we'll see.


title: call me a house junkie

text: What a way to really step back in time!  As a child of the '80s I've seen my share of these Atomic Homes; and most pleasing was to see a simular home to my Aunt's in my first edition!!<br />Try it, if you have any memories or love of these modern styled home, you will truly enjoy this magazine!  One issue and I'm a subscriber!


Popular Science used to be a great magazine. Unfortunately, they have moved away from  diverse science topics and moved towards environmentalism and a green science as their main topic of choice in almost every issue. While I don't mind reading about these subjects I would like to read about a more diverse scientific topic base rather than just one choice. I can no longer support Popular Science by ordering this magazine.

text: My favorite magazine. Whenever I go to an office I would look for this magazine so I decided I should have my own subscription.


title: Five Star Magazine.

text: This is one of my favorite magazines.  One of the few I still subscribe too.  I especially love it because it seems to center a lot on my West Coast likes.  I think other regions would appreciate it too.

title: RD is worth every penny.

text: I always devour Reader’s Digest as soon as it arrives  The stories are succinct and interesting. The humor alone is worth the read!


title: Awesome Educational Magazine

text: I love that this magazine inspires minority youth to be the best that can be. This is the first minority magazine that I have seen that caters to education and is positive in it's overall content. I ordered this for the youth ministry at my church because I want our youth to have information such as financial aid, scholarships, inspirational articles and so much more pertaining to education to motivate them towards going to college, which ultimately will lead to them having bright futures. I'm going to put another subscription in for another teen that I feel can use this awesome piece of literary work!

title: Filled with much more than travel info

text:
I got this magazine as part of a "miles for magazines" program and absolutely enjoyed it after the first glance.  To my surprise, the ratings aren't reflective of my love for this magazine.

True that the magazine is for those who have money but isn't this implied?  If you're struggling to make ends meat, is traveling for leisure really at the top of your priority list?  I'd hate to be downright blatant here but for those who are lowering the ratings of this magazine for that reason, your complaint really has no bearing on the contents of this magazine.

Here was my take on the magazine:
- I really enjoyed it because it wasn't all about travel.  As the name implies, there's other aspects to this magazine as well including design and other lifestyle related information
- The magazine does list more expensive hotels and spots that they recommend but isn't that sometimes part of being 5-star?
- There were a normal amount of advertisements, nothing too extreme
- The articles were relevant and informative

For those travel enthusiasts who are curious about what more is out there like myself but want to also read about design, culture, and other lifestyle related information - this is for you.

If you're looking for a magazine that's all about travel, cheap deals, and how to save money on travel - look elsewhere.

text: It’s the New Yorker. Good deal.


title: ok

text: ok just wish i had the tools to do the jobs


Really disappointed in such an expensive magazine.  Tons of ads and not really much of anything that you wouldn't see in Better Homes and Gardens.  I thought it would be MORE like the network with lots of ideas and before's and after's.  Nope.  I could do without it that's for sure.


title: Sadly, Girls life is full of articles about looking fun and flirty

text: Boys life is filled with interesting articles in adventure, science, nature, and survivals stories. Girls life is full of articles about looking fun and flirty. Really? It's 2017. I want more substance for my daughter. She deserves that. I ordered Teen Vogue instead. They recognize that girls want information on more than just make up. Shame on these publishers.


title: Horrible service- waste of money!

text: Purchased a 2 year subscription through Amazon as a gift.  Recipient NEVER received even one issue.  I didn't find out until a year into it.  When I contacted their service department, they said it was being sent to the correct address.  Ummm, so why hasn't she ever gotten it?  I will NOT be renewing this obviously, but I have a feeling that pursuing a refund will not be easy.  Total waste of money.  Awful service.  Don't bother paying for something you'll never get.

text: This magazine pretty much shows how differently some view our young girls vs young boys...the boys life magazine is AWESOME...so awesome that my 7 year old daughter loves to read it. It has science, nature, adventure etc..and this girls version has nothing in common. I want my daughter be curious, adventurous and well-rounded. I don't need her to read about boyfriends and be consumed about her looks.

text: Great magazine. Lots of awesome recipes that aren't too difficult to make. Find something new to try in every issue.


title: Great articles and instructions

text: This is the perfect gift for. New homeowners. I subscribed after I bought my first house, because it is full of info, tips and tricks...things like how often to change your air filters, or how to spice up your kitchen on a budget. The articles are not all construction related, as I assumed, having watched the show growing up. There is a lot of useful information, even if you're not planning a home reno project. I save all my old copies.

text: Great magizine.


title: Too many ads

text: Thought I would love a southern flair design magazine but it is 50-60% ads. I will not renew. Has pretty pictures and has generous pages.


title: Five Stars

text: Beware, this will renew at a HIGH price


title: Five Stars

text: Nice mag - covers a lot of new products. Use to read Grandma's!

title: Nice paper & articles

text: Got first issue. Nice paper & articles, recipes, stories. "Takes you there...!"


title: Cool mag!

text: This is a great magazine, filled with recipes and neat facts about the food industry! I cancelled it, though, because I was tired of all the junk mail with it ;-) Would recommend to anyone that loves to cook!


title: Very good--but....

text: This is a good magazine with a lot of good advice and articles, however, every month features a new "astounding diet" with other diets interspersed in the book. Wish they would do away with that every month. Then I would give ti five stars.


title: That new magazine feeling !

text: I like the content of Real Simple . Good balance of subject & not so many advertisements. I like how the pages are matte & not glossy.


title: One Star

text: This publication was gifted to me. It's thorough and researched. And it's joyless.


title: Sent three months at once and not for non proficient readers

text: They sent March - may all at once.  The pages are not as thick as other kids books you would want to keep.  The layout is easy to busy if you have a 6 year old who  isn’t reading on a much higher level and you have to read to them this is a nightmare.  Now for older kids I would say it’s awesome.  Also the posters we wanted were disappointing and one of the three they sent was just a giant ad got their books.  Not happy


title: Perfect for the horse enthusiast ages 6-106!

text: We've been subscribing to this magazine for the past 2 years.  Originally we ordered it as a birthday gift to our (then) 6 year old daughter who is absolutely in love with horses (what girl isn't?),  Every time it arrives in the mail, she eagerly finishes her homework and chores that day just to be able to sit down, enjoy the articles, photos, and yes... even the ads.  Horse Illustrated is very kid and adult friendly.


I got this confused if this was the actual months issue, or a sample and the real one would come later? Nope, it's the real one, it's pretty thin and every other page is an ad! I'm very disappointed as I am not interested in 2,000 different types of medications!!


title: it's pretty thin and every other page is an ad

text: Husband absolutely loves this magazine and is thrilled when he gets his new issues.  I accidentally let the subscription run out and he missed it a lot!  We are back on board with it now.  :)


title: Best Pictures

text: So happy I could find this on Amazon Magazine subscriptions! This is my husbands favorite and such an easy way to manage it right through my Amazon account.


title: Good magazine, lousy shipping

text: I like the magazine, however my 6-year-old is not that interested in them.  After a subscription from another animal magazine, that she loved, I thought these would be a hit, but I was wrong.  Shipping...Well I didn't receive any for quite some time, then received 3 in one week.  This defeated the purpose of creating a monthly excitement for the magazine to arrive in the mail.  I cancelled the renewal due to this disappointment.


title: Perfect for the high school senior

text: Just what you would expect from a young girl's magazine:  Fashion, makeup, drama, and boys.  Be aware that this mag does contain candid conversations and should not be given to those under 16.


title: full liberal bias throughout the magazine & "progressive" agenda really being promoted here

text: I am really disappointed.  There is full liberal bias throughout the magazine.  Peppered throughout the stories, and I am finding that common in Time Warner publications unfortunately.  I like the in-depth stories, but really have noticed the bias, and I am not some right-wing loony, and am not even a registered Republican.  I consider myself independent and have voted both Dem and Republican over the years.

text: I like the quality of the magazine. The pages are thick and it is photographed beautifully. There are a variety of interesting articles that can apply to all levels of expertise and funding. The writing is clear and concise. Each issue is worth saving and reviewing later. I have watched the HGTV network since its inception and this magazine is a super companion piece. I purchased this along with the Food Network magazine, and they are both great reads.

title: Too General

text: This magazine is mostly advertising and not much information about any one subject.  Too broad and general for my tastes.  I take lots of fly fishing magazines that are much better for what I enjoy.

title: Wonderful educational magazine

text: My daughter enjoyed this magazine when she was younger. This subscription is for my nephew and he just loves it. He’s only 6 but read it himself, cover to cover.


title: It's like the old gray mare--she ain't what she used to be

text: I see very little these days that appeals to me.  It's not just a matter of aesthetic preference--it's the layout and the choice of subject, chiefly.  I will not resubscribe.  Maybe not even if it's offered at a low, low rate again.


title: Not sophisticated enough in content or presentation

text: The magazine is fine for the present discounted price.  I wouldn't subscribe at full price, however, because there's not enough new or interesting information for a person who's been living healthily for several decades already.


title: Good read

text: Great price


title: NOT WORTH THE SUBSCRIPTION.

text:
I bought this for my tweenie daughter but when it arrived she could not relate to the people or most anything else in this magazine.

It has changed and not for the better. It was horrible and not worth the read.


title: I love Italian

text: Really like this magaxine


title: gift idea

text: This was a gift for my husband.  He likes to see what the celebs are up to.


title: Country Living

text: I have a print subscription to Country Living and enjoy it very much. When I tried to subscribe to the Kindle edition Amazon created a new print subscription. I alerted them about this problem when I began receiving two print editions each month last month. This month the same thing happened. I tried to cancel the Amazon subscription to no avail. I will never order another periodical from Amazon. Most print subscribers can view the kindle edition at no cost.


title: Wife is cooking again!

text: I bought this hoping my wife would find a recipe or two that she would like. The past 2 nights I get home from work and she’s prepared meals from the first magazine and both have been good. She’s not a chef but she does like to make us food and it’s nice to have something different to eat.


title: Very attractive layout good info

text: I’m keeping this magazine for another year.  Lots of good info and recipes.  Probably won’t buy any of the expensive things promoted for sale.  It comes too late to enter most of the contests.  I guess the price is because they are surplus.  I like that they are shipped in plastic so not torn and my info not printed on magazine.  I donate my magazines to waiting rooms and thrifts.


title: Great gift

title: brother loves sroling stone mag

title: My brother

text: I sent this magazine to my brother in prizon.  He likes this mag


title: So much info included...but

text:
Just got my first issue! I haven't had the chance to read cover to cover but I did read full articles here and there and skim through the full thing. Here's what I found:

Pros:
1)Beautiful, beautiful magazine. Very visually pleasing and very nice/clear layout and very high quality printing.
2) Jam packed with info! I was not expecting there to be so much info in this magazine. From tutorials to new features and a FREE disc of resources in this issue? Brilliant!

Cons:
1) While it's jam packed with info, I feel the content has "holes" so to speak. I'd like a little more detail in the step-by-step tutorials. While I do agree that a lot is left up to the creator in any creative tutorial, I still feel like they could give a little bit more on how they achieved each step. It really is for advanced or intermediate/advanced users....I don't think beginners could get any info out of this easily. I've been using PS for almost 15 years and even I am struggling with some of what they're trying to describe.

2) The font size is TINY. I compared it to some other magazines figuring it was just me but no, noticeably smaller. Probably like an 8-10pt font throughout the mag.

3) Going hand in hand with the font size (and this is the most important issue I have with the magazine), the thumbnails in the tutorials are TINY...to the point where you can barely see the screen cap of the settings being portrayed. I understand that to pack this much info in this normal sized magazine you have to make some sacrifices..but I don't think the tutorial thumbnails should be one of those sacrifices. I would really like to SEE what they're explaining...but better than no thumbnails at all!

Overall I give it 3.5 and rounded up to 4 simply for the sheer quality of magazine. Very happy with this fist issue (#110) and cant wait to see what the next issue has in store! I do consider it a good investment for PS users...but you at least have to know the program very well to be able to get much out of this. It sure does get the creative gears turning and gives new ideas for new projects. Very happy with it and it's a great addition to my archive.

text: received the first issue after 3 months, two months earlier than expectation. We ordered the thomas magazine in China and I would like to say it less fun than Chinese version and less activities in it. Not as interesting as I thought.


title: Great Price

text: While I love the HGTV programs I am very disappointed in the HGTV magazine - it was a total rip off.  I have not received a single issue, nor have I received any mailing indicating that a subscription was issued.  Amazon took my money and ran with it.<br />UPDATE, FINALLY AFTER WRITING THIS REVIEW I RECEIVED MY FIRST ISSUE.  IT IS A GREAT MAGAZINE!


title: Subscription renewal

text: somehow I wasn’t aware of automatic renewal which I didn’t want. They were able to help resolve though


title: Just garbage!

text: For starters the cover of many of the last issue said "You were made to be free" yet Chip and Joanna are anti-gay so I guess free does not include same sex couples.  Have you ever seen a same sex couple in their TV show?  This is the reason I don't watch HGTV anymore.  The rest of the magazine is garbage, there are so many other magazines that are so much better than this.


title: I used to love this magazine

text: I used to love this magazine, but I'm finding fewer recipes than I used to.  Some are a little too funky for me, and others are just not that great.  Also it seems like there's less content.


title: Dirt Rag is the best mountain bike etc mag

text: If you own a mountain bike, commuter bike, uni, touring bike, snow bike, etc, why do you not already own this magazine? It is beyond awesome! Articles on pump tracks, off road unicycling, trail maintenance and advocacy, and of course, sweet trail riding. We savor and fight over this magazine when it comes in, reading it slowly to make it last 2 months. The only problem I have is this magazine's propensity to put scantily clad females on the cover and in prominent photo shoots. I can overlook that though, because this magazine is so sweet.


title: Lots of recipes quarterly

title: Don't order Reader's Digest. It's a trap!

text: I have tried canceling this subscription several times. It was fun when I got it on the $5 promotional deal through Amazon, but now the same publication is $13 each +tax and shipping. Who can afford THAT in hard times? The magazine is good but not THAT good. I have canceled through Amazon, I have written, I have called the publication directly. Delivery will stop for a while and then pick right up again. SURPRISE! Your bank account is now over-drafted because we charged you something you didn't want and didn't expect. Not only should they cancel the subscription, they should pay ME for the headache. Until then, they'll have all the advertising they don't want. ”Don't buy Readers Digest! Even if it's on a ”deal.” They are an out of date, overpriced rag of a publication that may as well be used as toilet paper, which works out great since you won't be able to buy any when they don't f$&king cancel your subscription like they said they would... at least four times. Can someone make it stop???!!! I'm begging you. Stop.


title: Time used to be good... Not anymore!

text: I used to like and respect Time Magazine decades ago.  Now, the Internet made it irrelevant, and their Bias drove me to stop paying even the 'highly discounted' rate I was offered.

text: Best photography magazine ever over the years. I liked Modern Photography better back in the day, but it's long gone, so Popular Photography is just fine.  Love every issue, and Amazon's price is wonderful.


title: An old favorite at a great price.

text: Great magazine for busy people with limited time and/or attention spans! Lots of great stories and helpful information but in short, easy to read in one sitting (if you know what I mean:-). For the price, it's a nice break from reading on my phone or tablet and dodging viagra ads every 10 seconds....


title: GREAT MAG.!

text: THANK YOU


title: EYE OPENER! UNDENIABLE,IRREFUTABLE, IRREFRAGABLE LOSS OF 2020!

text: Thanks Time Magazine for your honest journalism and your approach to uncomfortable topics! I've been reading Time Magazine for 40 + years and I still enjoy it and most of all I can trust its sources and methods. Whenever I need to write a report for one of my classes I always cite TIME as one of my 5 references. RIP TO OUR HEROS AND LOVED ONES.

title: MY FIRST ISSUE

text: TELLS IT LIKE IT IS


title: Love this magazine

text: I love to browse through the article, and look at the bright and bold pictures.


title: Great little magazine

text: Good Ideas with how to directions. Great concept.


title: Filled with a magical unrealistic world

text: Great magazines to browse and admire. I do not believe the presentation is realistic homes or situations. The magazine is like window shopping it looks nice, but not real.


title: Great Idea

text: I had good intentions when ordering the magazine. The bad part is it bored me with the articles, so now its permanent spot is the coffee table where everyone overlooks.


title: Friendly receipes

text: My work loves to hold pot luck events. This magazine has lots of recipes for me to entertain the thought of making for pot luck.


title: I like this magazine

text: I carry this magazine to the ball field while my kid is at practice. All around entertaining magazine with neat articles.


title: family friendly

text: Family orientated recipe. The pictures make the food look great, but I have not had time to try them.


title: Do it yourself

text: My second magazine from my subscription. The projects have not captured my interest as of yet. The projects seem dated and unappealing thus far. Maybe the next month's magazine will offer great ideas with useful projects.


title: love this magazine

text: The food looks amazing through out the magazine. I would not say this magazine was for the working family with a time limit for food preparations. Maybe if you were retired or had time on your hands you could invest in duplicating the recipes.


title: Great magazine

text: The magazine is filled with vacations I want to take. The magazine is full of great  tips and tricks for the next family fun trip.


title: Don't let your kids get the mail

text: The kids saw the cover of the magazine and became worried that I was going to make the dish for dinner. The magazine is for the more elite chief not for the average family


title: Five Stars

text: This is just a great price for this magazine. Definitely worth it.


title: My students love it!

text: The graphics are very eye catching!


title: Great read

text: RD is still a fabulous read! Jam packed with Highly interesting, intellectually stimulating, humorous, information and stories. 👍👍👍😀💕

title: Five Stars

text: I love getting this every month! The tips and tricks have helped my practice.


title: Shady Company

text: Watch out! The magazine will automatically sign you up for a one-year subscription! I will not be supporting this shady company anymore.


title: Inspiration

text: Creative ideas.


title: Vapid and pointless

text: I cannot tell you how much I miss Jane magazine. I'm not quiet at the Bust magazine level, so I was hoping that this would be a happy medium. It's not, it's boring and very, very hipster oriented... I can't wait till the hipster thing dyes out.


title: Love it!

text: Love my magazine subscription, very helpful with exercise tips..


title: All about money/collecting

text: This is without a doubt one of the best magazine/newspapers that you can find to keep up with the coin collecting craze.  The only problem I have with it is that sometimes, the paper tries to get in to politics and not coin collecting.  The problems that the ANA is/was having has been beaten to death.  If you are serious about coin collecting, this is for you.


title: Nice Magazine about New Mexico

text: If you love New Mexico this a must to have great pictures and Articles


title: So She Got Some Botox...

text:
All these low star complaints about activism - coupled with 0 reference to precisely what that activism is - make me suspect an orchestrated smear campaign.  Eat it Luddites.

I've been reading Scientific American off and on since the 1970s.  It's still full of information and while prior incarnations may have had more scientists and less science writers (a researchable point that I will concede out of laziness and general So...WTFitude), it is still informative and intriguing.  You're aching for hard science?  Then read "Science".  You get to see the protein sequences for yourself - and 12 of us would understand it.  Scientific American has always been accessible but intelligent.  It still is.


title: Easy Read

text: Worth it, easy read.


title: Good Read

text: I liked this much more than ATK and I didn't expect to.  Will be subscribing for the year.


I love Sunset.  Always a great read and great recipes.  I wish I could save all the magazines.


title: Can't build without it

text: If you are interested in home improvement or home projects you have to have this magazine. I have subscribed for years and always will. Always something new and different.


title: Love it!

text: I've been reading the New Yorker so long-- since before it was published, almost, and I wanted this particular issue so I could refer to the excellent article on writing process. Somehow it was thrown out. Thanks for helping me find it!


title: very educational

text: The magazine falls apart very easily, had to re-staple it


title: It is Okay

text: I bought this for my brother who loves science fiction.  He said there were more stories he didn't like than there were of ones he did like.  I won't renew because of his reaction to the magazine.


title: Snooty

text: I don't know why i kept my subscription as long as I have. This magazine is snooty and full of useless cleaning tips (like anyone who subscribes cleans their own house?).


title: Great Family Magazine

text: We love it


title: Five Stars

text: Love this magazine since I discovered it in a book store.


title: Daughter loves MS's magazine

text: I don't love it, but my 48 yo daughter does, so I renew her subscription every year as part of her Christmas present.  I do appreciate that Amazon notifies me when it's time to renew.


title: Ads !!!!

text: Magazine full of ads


title: Disappointed that local channels for my specific location are not ...

text: Disappointed that local channels for my specific location are not included and that programming from 12 AM to 12 midnight are not shown.


title: My husband loves it!!

text: My husband has been getting this magazine since the 70's.  He loves it!


title: A favorite magazine for my husband.

text: I bought this magazine for my husband and he seems to really enjoy it.


title: Useful magazine for woodworkers

text: I've subscribed to Wood magazine for several years, along with some other woodworking magazines.  I like it better than the others because of the plans and tool reviews.  It seems to have more information that interests me than the others.


title: Purchased for my husband who LOVES cars!

text: My husband reads several car magazines.  He had been buying Motor Trend at the store each month.  When I saw the price at Amazon, I bought a subscription for him.  It's MUCH cheaper than buying it at the store.  He likes Motor Trend and Car & Driver the best.  He had a subscription for Road and Track, but didn't like it and let the subscription lapse.


title: Five Stars

text: I have always enjoyed this magazine!


title: Good food magazine

text: Interesting magazine, full of good cooking ideas!


title: Downhome recipies that everyone loves

text: I always find a delicious recipe each month. Great photography and index!


title: Good reading

text: Always a good read


title: If you like this magazine you might like Guideposts Christmas Angels CD & Guideposts Stories of Faith Christmas..Convincing!!

text: My favorite story is of a woman caught in Hitler's war who fled her country in search of safety. She takes a train to a mountain village wearing threadbare clothes in a blinding storm of snow and sleet..But she must walk up the mountain to safety in the house of her friends and family. She tells God she is very afraid so He surrounds her in a warm bubble of light until she arrives safe and dry at the door where her family asks how she could have made it on foot and dry through the freezing storm. All the stories are convincing and well told with details and emotion just like your friend would tell you of a touching experience which happened to them. Our family listens to these many stories (2 disks per CD case) at bedtime. It is a great way to increase Faith for you and your family.


title: Good Read for My Husband

text: Family Handyman is a good magazine for my husband when he has time to read. He likes to save the projects to work on at a future time. Magazine cover is bright with a good design and an attention getter. Was a gift from my daughter and she said it was easy to give through Amazon. Would recommend the magazine if you have the time to read it.


title: Mom enjoys it.

text: My 87 year old mother finds value in it.


title: No.  Has went so far down hill.  Identity crisis

text: I used to really like this magazine. Got my first issue and am totally disappointed.  I am going to try to cancel.  Very sparse.  What is there is uninspired and nothing I am interested in. Nothing to do with living simply.


title: Love this magazine

text: This magazine is really great especially for older people.  It is still a bit before my time.  I am in my early 60's but I can still relate to some of the stuff and I enjoy really it.  Definitely get for people in their late 70's on up.


title: The sad decline of MAD Magazine

text:
Cancelled my subscription after 4 issues.
MAD Magazine is nothing like it once was, it used to be an equal opportunity satire magazine, but not anymore. Now the audience they are trying to appeal to seems pretty obvious and although I'm A-political, the rhetoric just gets really old.
 Now, if you enjoy redundant & very left leaning political humor, then this magazine is for you. But, If you are looking for the nostalgic MAD from the 50's, 60's and 70's like I was, you will most likely be quite disappointed - you will be far better off just going on ebay and buying old back issues - trust me on this. Heck, I still have my old issues and paperbacks from when I was a kid - and that was a long time ago, but these new issues, I just throw in the trash - they're that bad.
I might also mention that it appears they can't manage to come up with any non-political material that's actually funny, so they rip off old Dave Berg ( along with other writers and artists) material and rewrite or add to it, stripping away the innocence and clean humor it had.

What a sad decline from what was once a great comic/satire mag.


title: Real Simple magazine

text: I love this magazine.  It's loaded with all kinds of different things like recipes, cleaning tips, trends, etc.  The photography is really good.


title: Jail books

text: Bought this and several other books for a piece of crap man I used to date who is now in prison. He’s always asking for stuff so I sent him some things but he is an unappreciative  little twit, so I hope he chokes on all of these it will be the last I send


title: Prison books

text: Sent to my crappy ex-boyfriend in prison. I hope he chokes on it


title: Books

text: I actually send books to my exboyfriend in prison. He loves the books and the fact that delivery is very timely is a plus. Thanks.


title: Boring !!!!!!

text: I do not like.  Ordering was an error that and I cannot seem to cancel.  Please help.  I would love to order other magazines


title: Highly recommend.

text: Great magazine. Love the articles. Always something to learn. And I got it for the $5 deal! Can't beat that.

text: Wife  likes the magazine.


title: A great, wholesome magazine.

text: My 13 year old loves to read American Girl.  I love that she still loves it!  I don't have to worry about her reading junk in it.


title: Ad War!

text:
I didn't notice how many ADs were really in this magazine.
You would think since this magazine isn't free, and you do have to pay a subscription, that ADs wouldn't be so overwhelming.  Well...Out of the 152 pages this magazine has...108 of those were ADs.
Ummmm...Maybe they should rename their magazine.
Popular ADs & some photography.
Atleast this subscription was given to me for free.
If you want an artisticlly creative magazine with photos from people like YOU! then subscribe to JPG mag.  You post your photos on their site, [...], and people vote for the specific category...if it gets the most votes, it gets in the mag. And no, I don't work for JPG...I just am very fond of their works.


title: Keep moving folks.  Nothing to see here.

text: Mag really tries to be trendy.  The lay out is pointlessly hip.  Small print hard to read.  If you really like air head left wing jibber jabber this is your publication.  Go for it.  There is a lot of swell stuff coming out of San Francisco and the Bay Area.  And there is the ole warmed over susposedly very correct 60s and 70s flower child stuff.  This is the latter.


title: Five Stars

text: NO COMMENT


title: Print is dead

text: Print editions of this magazine have stopped.  All issues are now digital.


title: Reader's Digest is short and easy to read

text: I have been reading Reader's Digest for years. There is always something in it that will have appeal.


title: Magazine is great... but you won't get them

text:
The company that distributes this magazine in the United States does an extremely poor job.  After subscribing, I got 3 magazines (all on the same day) and then nothing.  I e-mailed and called.  I got one response saying that they were backed up... but never got any other magazines.

The magazine itself it great though (5 stars for the magazine)... pick it up at a newsstand and enjoy.. but don't subscribe if you live in the US.


title: Four Stars

text: Great, great, great.  Really enjoy on my Kindle.


title: Nails Magazine

text: Love this magazine. I have always had a subscription since I've become a Nail Tech.


title: Good for the price

text: I had a subscription to this magazine for years until I noticed too many ads and content going down.  I decided at the price of $5/year I would try it again.  I still love it, but it is now much smaller in size, still quite a few ads, and content about the same.  I'll keep at this price, but I wouldn't pay more.  It's easier to read it physically than on a computer or my Kindle so I like getting my hands on the actual paper version.


title: Biased reviews and poor editorial content

text:
.
At one time, EGM was the best game magazine around. The articles were fair, the reviews were top notch, and the writing was well presented and professional. Then something horrible happened. The editor of the magazine moved on, and the editor position has changed twice. The magazine has never been the same. Change is good, but in the case of EGM, the change has been terrible.

The editorial staff is biased and lets this come through on the various articles that they write. If anything, they are very consistent about their inconsistency regarding quality of reviews.
They consider themselves experts in the game industry and as a result, they are too wrapped up in comparing present games with previous games of the past, rather than taking each game upon its own merits. This is a jaded way of reviewing at best and totally misdirected at worst. A typical review will start out by saying, "Well, last year's game was terrific, but this year's game was not as good." Have the writer's considered that not everyone has played "last year's game" and would thoroughly enjoy the sequel. No. The editorial staff takes great joy in showing off their game knowledge, but spends so much time on bragging about their expertise, that the reviews, are for the most part, useless.

The editorial staff, rather than coming to their own conclusions about each game, review the games together and influence each others opinions. Rather than getting objective information, the readers are getting a mob opinion of the game, even though the reviews are written by individuals.

The layout of the magazine is thought out well and the production value is high. What is not high is the content of the material. The idea of grading each game on a one to ten scale is good, as anyone can just look at the various numbers and get a quick and immediate sense of how the game rates. The fault is that the people reviewing the games are not objective enough and rely too heavily upon comparisons of other similar games rather than concentrating on why the game they are reviewing is good or not, apart from comparing.  Some comparing is necessary, but EGM is so one dimensional  that this is the basis for most of their reviews.

The one positive thing about this magazine is that it is all encompassing as far as coverage of the game industry. They cover all console games and give good info on what is happening on the development end of games. They present previews of what is coming up, etc. This may be their strong point.

If accurate reviews and in-depth reporting are your interest, stay away from EGM. The magazine has basically de-evolved into a kids cartoon book.

UPDATE: EGM is no longer being published. The plug was pulled in 2009.


title: Great deal

text: Can't believe I got it for this price!  Very happy,  You can't miss with Oprah Winfrey's great magazine- woo hoo!


title: Five Stars

text: Great magazine!


title: Love Consumer Reports

text: Great magazine to read before purchasing just about anything.  I would advise anyone to purchase these if you want to know the best products out there.


title: I love Paula Deen!

text: I was wondering what I could do to support Paula Deen after the press has been persecuting her, so I thought of going to Amazon and buying some of her products.  It is the only way I can get back at biased press who goes after successful women and bless myself at the same time.


title: Five Stars

text: It’s not bad


title: Not what I thought

text: Not what I thought I was buying. Too many advertisements. Pictures of people I don't know, no idea where to purchase items


title: Dissapointed

text: I was so looking forward to receiving my NEW magazine DWELL. It arrived faster then I thought. With great excitement and anticipation I opened the pages and found......lots and lots of advertisements. I am SO dissapointed that I canceled my subscription. I Really wanted this to be a visual tool for modern/contemporary design for the average consumer. DONT believe ANY positive reviews.


title: Great value!

text: I have been reading reader's digest for the past 40 years. This was a good price to pay for a renewal!


title: My Favorite Magazine!

text: Reader's Digest is my favorite magazine now. Small, very well organized and every month something new to learn. Highly recommend to anyone! Don't beliave the negative reviews, try for yourself and see if you like it.


title: Magazine Gone Woke

text: SI has compromised its writing staff due to budgetary constraints and gone completely woke with mixing sports and politics.


I always find something in it that gets me thinking or interested in a product or company. I have bought stocks based on technologies I read about in here. I find it a good general topic magazine that can reach a cross-section of people.

title: Love My Magnolia Journal!

text: What can I say? I'm like a kid at Christmas the moment it arrives! It's like family has come to visit! So exciting on every page. Larger pages, fresh ideas, letter writing, flower arranging, etc.. Chip and Joanna care about Family, Faith, and Friends. What more could I ask for in a friend?


title: If you love NOLA and travel there often this magazine is for you!

text: Love NOLA like a second home so was so glad to see this magazine was available.  It seemed like it took a really long time to get my first issue for the subscription, but it was worth the wait.  The magazine is full of local information that will be great when I head down to NOLA a couple times a year.  You get great insight into the locals hot spots so you can get away from the tourist traps down in the Quarter- not that there aren't great places there.


title: Excellent to keep up on TV changes and new programs

text: I started a subscription  about a year ago and have been very pleased with the information it provides.


title: OK

text: Although ordered in October, didn't receive my first issue until December...it's a fantastic price and has been an interesting magazine. Seems the issues are a bit slimmer than I remember.


title: Every Roman Catholic Needs This

text: This little monthly book contains everything a Roman Catholic needs to experience Mass at its fullest.


title: Best photography ever!

text: I enjoy reading this magazine.


title: Good deal on Amazon for the subscription

text: I enjoy the pro's viewpoint on their guitars and interviews read the interview even it the artists style doesn't interest me. The songs in the back and the exercised and tips. The hot rod custom guitars attraction is lost on me. But, I'm not a hot rod guitar nut either.


title: Fantasy fodder

text: I always enjoy loozing at other people's homes


title: pretty pics

text: The images are pretty unattainable, but that's what makes it fantasy material. Like the decorating equivalent of playboy.  Soothing in a way.


title: Love this magazine

text: Wonderful outdoor magazine with great tips and pics.


title: Haven’t received the 2nd monthly magazine

text: A gift for my granddaughter and she loved the first magazine when it arrived at her home in August. She hadn’t gotten one in September and it’s now October 2nd...<br />I’m very disappointed

title: Four Stars

text: Enjoy this magazine.


title: Great magazine for cat owners!

text: Lots of helpful information!


title: Wonderful bit of fluff

text: I read it nightly to put my brain in a fun place to have a good sleep.  I don't mean to say it isn't informative and interesting, it is, but it is what it is-my personal paparazzi on the hunt.  Fun to read.


title: Informative

text: Informative magazine that is easy reading and full of interesting ideas and articles.  I usually read from cover to cover especially what is pertinent to San Francisco.


title: Four Stars

text: Husband is enjoying magazine.


This Magazine is great. I like History and this magazine is simple to read and understand. It give a brief view of the events it covers. The photos of documents and painting are just clean and easy to see.

title: Stopped receiving

text:
I paid for a full years subscription but stopped receiving issues after 6 months. Reached out to the publisher and will update if I receive a response back.

UPDATE: I was told by the publisher because my subscription had just ended there was nothing they could do to help. Never wasting my money on this magazine again.


title: Great deal

text: Great deal


title: Came on time

text: Have always loved this magazine, came on time every month.


Print magazines are so infiltrated with ads these days, it's disappointing. I was finding that my information for these was better served by the internet. I know they bring money to the publisher, but I feel like I'm paying for the ads and not the knowledge anymore.


title: I look forward to receiving this magazine.

text: Very colorful pictures. Interesting articles.


title: Kids love it

text: I use this in my second grade class and it goes fast off the shelf. Everyone loves it! I use contact paper to cover it to keep them looking good longer.


title: perfect for tweens

text: My 11 year old loves this magazine and she gets quite a few - like teen vogue and the like - but this is her favorite.  Not a lot of boy drama stuff, less ads and more outfits that you can actually afford.


title: Head Games

text: Everyone could benefit from reading this magazine. I read it from cover to cover. It has something for everyone; I wish it was published monthly.


title: WOW! What you can learn!

text: The Smithsonian has everything from planes, to dinosaurs, to lovely gems.  There is something for everyone.  It is nice to know that it can be made affordable to everyone.  Kudos, Amazon!


title: Lots of info

text: They pack a lot on info into this small sized magazine.  It is easy to read, gives you a chuckle, and tells a lot of what you need to know.  Who can argue with that???

title: Reader's Digest never disappoints!

text: Full of short, interesting, helpful articles and humor sections.  Very enjoyable and look forward to each issue.  Excellent magazine to carry with you to read while waiting for appointments.

title: Great magazine

text: If you live on the coast/near a waterway, this is a magazine for you.  I've purchased it on the newstand for much more than the price of this subscription.


title: recipes & how-to's

text: I had stopped subscribing to various magazines but when I saw Food Network, I knew I had to make an exception.  Not only are the recipes well organized & indexed, there's plenty of how-to's for the beginning or advanced cook.  The pics are great & the interviews interesting.

Cooking Light is by every measure the best cooking magazine I've come across. And my girlfriend love it too!

The meals are easy to prepare, even when you don't have a lot of kitchen acumen. They are simple, with all the ingredients listed. Also, the ingredients are usually things you CAN find in the grocery store, unlike a lot of magazine's dishes.

Definitely a good magazine subscription to have.

At the beginning, I tried to make at least 1 meal from each magazine a month. Now, I find myself going back to it at least 3-4 a month. Friends always rave about the dishes I prepare with CL's recipes too.

Big fan of this mag.


title: Light reading for the yoga enthusiast.

text:
Many have complained about the advertising in this magazine, and they are absolutely right; _Yoga Journal_ does contain a very large number of advertisements.

What I disagree with is that this detracts from the magazine itself. It is almost unfortunate that this publication includes the word 'journal' as a part of its title, as it is not a journal, nor is it intended to be. This is a light-reading magazine that you can pick up at the breakfast table or read on-the-go.

If you are looking for a journal with fresh insight, well-researched articles, and literary merit, look elsewhere. If you want something you can look at while on the bus or waiting in line at the DMV, then this is it! It is what it is
