title: Good, but basically the same as J-14 and M

text: Twist is overall a good magazine for teen girls ages 12-17, particulary those who like to read about celebrities, fashion, and beauty the most. It gives you the most updated info on TV, music, and movies too, which is a nice thing. The main focus is celebrities, however. Twist features everything that girls like to read about- celebrity gossip and rumors, posters and pinups, fashion and beauty hints, embarrasing moment stories, and more. It's a little bit more mature then J-14, M, Popstar, etc., so there are some topics about sex, romance, etc.<br />Like I mentioned before, this magazine is basically the same as J-14 and M- they have mostly the same articles, features, and posters, but that's not a reason to miss out on this magazine. I would mostly recommend Twist for those who like these types of magazines but would like one that's a bit more mature and stylish.


title: A great magazine!

text:
CosmoGIRL! is an excellent magazine for those teens who want a magazine focused on all aspects of their life, not just one thing like fashion or beauty. As another reviewer commented, this magazine may get a bad reputation because of its sister magazine Cosmopolitan, but it's actually an appropriate and un-trashy magazine for girls ages 12 through 18.
CosmoGIRL! covers real-life stories, fashion, beauty, celebrities, music, movies, and more all in one issue. And the best part is, there's plenty of it too, not just one or two pages. The magazine features many imformative and touching real-life stories, and interviews with all of your favorite stars. In addition, there's also the fun stuff like embarrasing moments stories and fun and risky stuff to try that month. And of course, my favorite column, "Cool Room," where real girls get awesome bedroom makeovers.
Overall, CosmoGIRL! is a great magazine. There's not that much talk about sex in it, either, so you can feel comfortable giving it to a twelve-year-old girl to read. I found it to be a wonderful magazine and I know that I will be adding it to my subscription list.


title: Girls' Life is...okay

text:
I first encountered Girls' Life at my friend's house, an avid reader. Flipping through the magazine, I saw some good, okay, and bad features. Girls Life is targeted to ages 10-15, and it's good for those parents who feel as though their kid is too old for American Girl but still not old enough for YM, Teen People, etc. This magazine has advertisments, but not that many, and they're nothing inappropriate, just things like Smackers lip gloss or Secret deodorant.
I think this magazine is appropriate for the age group that it is targeted to. Girls' Life has articles about school, boys, seasonal articles about holidays, fashion, real-life, celebrities (though there isn't any gossip about who's doing what),  beauty, and other topics. I don't think you should read this magazine for it's beauty and fashion articles; try Teen Vogue or Teen People for fasion and beauty. Plus, there are quizzes, celebrity features and articles, embarrasing moments stories, advice to questions sent in by real girls, letters to the editor (of course!), and other fun features. You won't find any articles about sex and college, however.
My only problem with this magazine is obviously that the editors don't know what kind of girls to put on the cover and in their fashion and beauty pages. Usually, there are regular girls on the cover, sometimes a celebrity. But the thing is, Girls' Life usually doesn't put normal girls with glasses, freckels, dark hair or skin, or non-straight hair. Most of them feed us the picture of the ideal girl: tall, blonde-haird, blue-eyed, perfect complexion, no glasses, no freckels. That can ruin a girl's self-esteem, so I suggest reading this magazine not for it's models, but for the actual content. Besides from that one problem, Girls' Life would be an okay magazine for girls age 10-15.


title: Awesome Magazine!

text: "American Cheerleader" is one of the only tools you'll need to succeed in cheerleading. Each issue is jam-packed with try-out tips and advice, cheers, stunts, tumbling, and advice on everything from  perfect make-up to advice about uniforms. It also has a resource section with cheerleading uniform companies, camps, schools/clinics, and much, much more. This magazine is the best resource for all cheerleaders, coaches, and advisors. For the younger cheerleaders out there, check out American Cheerleader Junior, with great advice for young cheerleaders.


title: One of the Best Magazines Ever!

text: American Girl is the ultimate magazine for girls ages 8-14. This magazine does not focus on dating, clothes, and make-up, but it is an inspiring magazine for girls. The magazine has many neat features, like contests every month, Heart to Heart, a section where girls can speak out on specific topics, true stories about girls, crafts, games, puzzles, quizzes, an advice column, and much, much more. One great thing about this magazine is that it has no advertisements! American Girl is the best magazine, and I love reading it! Girls will love it!

text: My husband takes the to mass with him has for many many years! Also our priest reads from it during mass


title: Five Stars

text: I love this magazine I have learned a lot from the information


title: Canceling subscription is quite complicated

text: Hard to stop the subscription after numerous attempts.


title: Horrible service

text: I ordered this in August, and it is now the middle of November and I STILL have not received my first issue!


title: I wish I could give these as gifts, but I'm afraid to....

text: Zoobooks, Zootles, and Zoobies corner children in ages from 1 to 10, roughly.  When my children were young, these were the best things EVER, so when grandchildren started arriving, I thought I knew exactly what to do.  I was wrong.  The magazines are still wonderful, but the customer service is non-existent.  Their website is generally down, you can't access your account, you can't get a human, you can't get anything.  It's really sad, because the magazines are .... very interesting, and the kids have loved them.  But I still feel like I've thrown money into a black hole.


title: Best magazine out there!

text: Awesome magazine, one of the best out there for pheasant hunting with your dog.


title: Asimovs Science Fiction

text: Yes! Hours of great Scifi Reading packed into a easy to stash Magazine. Perfect size for backpack  to  read anywhere, or just at home. This is my second subscription, so far.  Warning don't expect it to come in any wrapping. It arrives naked and maybe some lucky postperson has preread it for you, but it arrives on time and most of the time looks great. OK I'm just so glad to see it!


title: Nice

text: I had to wait a while to receive it but it came!<br />Yes, it has a lot of advertisement but pretty good articles too


title: Five Stars

text: Always full of good information


title: Five Stars

text: I really enjoy this magazine!!


title: Good fashion magazine

text: I have read pretty much all of the fashion magazines, and I find Marie Claire to be one of the best. The articles are interesting and the magazine aims for an older than early 20's reader. Also,if you are a Project Runway fan, they usually have an article pertaining to the show monthly.


title: Don't waste your money

text: Was really excited about this magazine as I am a HUGE Maine fan, but it is filled with local advertisements and very few articles.


title: Great magazine

text: Very enjoyable articles on health issues.


title: Strike!

text: This is right down my alley! Love it!  Vern


title: INCREDIBLE DEAL National Geographic KIDS THANK YOU!

text: My son LOVES these! He's an all star reader so if your child is not good at reading and you're not willing to read it to them they might not enjoy it as much. He uses it for educational purposes. He loves getting mail too, super bonus that I got these on sale. Would most definitely buy again if it's on sale.


title: Two Stars

text: This magazine is a catalog of ads and not much more.


title: Love this

text: I get excited to read this when it comes. Insightful articles & a lot of times unexpected. The content is very motivating as well.


title: Just great all around

text: There are some interesting tips and articles in here. I don't understand the negative reviews. I first picked this up at my local kroger & was hooked, so i bought the subscription. I've never been disappointed.


title: Five Stars

text: Photography is awesome


title: Don't need the hassel !

text: I was about ready to order a subscription to this magazine (at an excellent price) when I decided to check the Amazon reviews.  Boy, am I glad I did.  The last thing I need is to be hassled about a subscription renewal in the way so many reviewers have described.  Pretending a customer has made a commitment to renew and using abusive tactics to badger an existing customer into renewing is reproachable.  Thanks to those who provided me with a "heads up" to this deceitful practice before I made a BAD mistake.


title: Watercolor Artist magazine

text: I am sorry I ordered this magazine. It is so disappointing and a complete waste of money. If I knew how to unsubscribe I would. I would not recommend it to any serious painter- utter rubbish.


title: An amazing read.

text: This magazine just blows me away every time it arrives.  One of the few magazines I read cover to cover every issue.  I've even learned to read the articles that I don't think would interest me (based on title, subject matter, etc.) because they are almost always so well written and cleverly packaged.  I just wish there was a kindle version!


title: Great Ideas...

text:
As for the ideas and pictures, it does provide some VERY good ideas overall (especially when they put some of Colette's work in there!).  The real challenge with the ideas contained in ACD comes in that there seems to be two spectrums, either fondant and totally elegant/difficult, or the other extreme of something that even a kid could do with little to no cake decorating experience(even though they moved their kid section over to Mailbox News)...  Also, they seem to cover to no end the Oklahoma State Sugar Arts Show...  Granted, there are many categories, it'd just be nice if they centralized it to one issue per year instead of using it as the base for the magazine every 2 months.  It is very well printed consistently (on much better paper than you'll get from other magazines out there)..

If having to choose between MBN and ACD, I'd recommend going with MBN because the ideas are more realistic to what most bakers will make or reproduce.  The only reason I have to say that ACD gets 4 stars (and was tempted to give it 3 because of this one issue alone) is that over the course of time myself and others all have had the same problem... Our address mysteriously changes in their database, thus, not getting issues and having to call the publisher on more than one occasion (or three) to get the situation resolved.  Their customer service gal is great, but I'd rather just get the magazine to my home address from the subscription without calling them..  Overall though, a very good cake decorating magazine..


title: Good general purpose magazine on photography

text: Shutterbug magazine is good for the beginner as well as the seasoned professional.  The magazine tends to be heavy on the product side but this is a good way to keep up with the latest and greatest products (through ads and reviews) that are hitting the market.  The articles are interesting and informative.


title: No edit of hate filled articles.

text: It's a shame that the editors of Marie Claire did not have Maura Kelly edit her blog post on "fatties", but now they will have to deal with the backlash.  Would never support a magazine that is so hypocritical and poorly run.


title: Super shady guys

text: Everyone has already said it. Super shady guys, don't auto renew without first asking us.


title: Fun magazine we read cover to cover

text: We recieved our first issue within 2 weeks. It was fun, had activities my daughter liked, and stories she enjoyed. I'm so glad we've subscribed!


title: Beautiful

text: Great magazine, beautiful photos


title: One Star

text: Have only received 1 issue almost a month ago!


title: Wife loves it

text: Wife loves it


title: Impossible to cancel, Renews WITHOUT the PROMISED Notice.

text:
On the phone now for over 30 minutes to cancel the subscription that auto-renewed with NO promised email notice.
Still, on 3rd Amazon representative, unable to cancel the renewal after 30 minutes.

And... the Subscription Manager does not handle cancellations, even though the description implies that it does.

Last time I try and magazine though Amazon's "service".


title: great for teens

text: my 17 year olds favorite magazine. good subscription pric, great articles for teenagers, and cute clothes, makeup and accessories all suted for teens


title: Great price

text: one of my teens favorite magazines. Great price with subscription, cute stylisha ge appropriate clothes, but many are too expensive for the average teen.

text: Best motorcycle magazine.  Objective and truthful source of information about all things motorcycle.


title: Five Stars

text: The subscription started as indicated.  The only magazine my husband reads.


title: WONDERFUL POSITIVE MAGAZINE FOR YOUNG GIRLS!!

text: My 11 yr old daughter loves this magazine and I love that the articles are about real issues..KINDNESS, BULLYING, EMBARRASSING MOMENTS,  BEING THE BEST YOU and the entire theme is about girl power and increasing self esteem... none of that shallow, how can I look cuter for boys, losing weight, make up tips like in other girl's magazines.... and we discuss a lot of what she reads and this magazine opens a dialogue for me and my daughter  in so many areas... highly recommend DISCOVERY GIRLS for 8 yr old girls and up....


title: Five Stars

text: Like ESPN then SI..  More stuff to read and gets your eyes open to other things


title: Great magazine

text: I highly recommend this magazine. All of the articles are very interesting and informative. I read it from cover to cover.


title: I really enjoyed H&R

text: I got H&R for a year, and then wanted to see what else was out there. H&R is a great magazine, though, and I plan on getting it again when my present subscription expires. It has articles on riding, training, conformation, riding posture, care/health, horsey stories...a little bit of everything, really! It is dominantly Western; not much English. Also, the magazine is well laid out; the format is nice and clear, and easy on the eyes.


title: Too many ads

text: This magazine has some good articles on horse care, and nice breed profiles with pretty pullout posters, but I felt that a lot of it was about riding, and not much else.  There were also too many ads in HI. If you want to get a good horse care magazine, subscribe to Equus.


title: A great source of information

text: This magazine has great, interesting articles on horse care and health. If you want a magazine on care and not just riding and/or training, get Equus!


title: A wonderful magazine!

text:
I've been getting WH for the past six months and I have loved every issue of it! A big bonus is that there aren't nearly as many ads in it as some magazines.
There are four departments: Ranchlands (stories of ranches and ranchers), Hands-On Horseman (this section features articles on horse health/care and riding/training), Inside the Arena (rodeo stories and news) and Cowboy Style (cowboy miscellanies on Western artisans, reviews on books and music, and other such things).
This is a great magazine; you will not regret spending your money!


title: Five Stars

text: I get this for my mom each year.  She loves it.


They used to be all about technology in the lab about to go commercial (back then I'd give them 5 stars), and now they have a big amount of their content focused on left wing interests, particularly obsessed with climate change and throwing rocks at Trump. Isn't that what other media outlets are all about. We need these guys to focus on what they're good at - Technology discovery !


title: Absolutely LOVE IT

text: So many different ideas that I can incorporate into my house and things that I can do with my Girl Scout Troop.  From easy to advanced, it walks you through how you can build some things.  And if you don't know what you need, you can easily go to your local hardware store with the magazine and they can show you where it is.  I feel a lot handier with this.  The only con is that it doesn't come often enough!  :)


title: Worth the Read

text: Lot's of good information in small doses. Easy to read during small time gaps while waiting for whatever you might be waiting for to happen.  I enjoyed this magazine 60 years ago in my youth and now it is updated with cutting edge info and it still brings me pleasure.

text:
I'm serious. This is probably the greatest official magazine on the face of the planet! They offer honest reviews, and before-it-ever-happens info on everything Nintendo! I would actually give this item a 4 or three star review. But, that's only because I sudgest getting two years instead of one!! Your friend in gaming,

title: My favorite Magazine, I read from first to last page even fine print.

text: Well this magazine is awesome, is so fancy it even feels good in your hands the paper is thick and the images very beautiful and vivid and that is most of the magazine beautiful pictures and straight to the point no time wasted. It allows you to dream big, and if you can't buy the products it shows at least you can know all the details and maybe buy if you can afford the luxury products. It shows the best in the world thats it, and that's why I think it is the best magazine ever.


title: Sickening and perverted!

text: This is gross, gives children explicit advice about having anal sex. This magazines grooms children for sexual abuse.

title: Best writer's Mag

text: This is the best resource for writers. Plenty of great ideas and examples and guidelines. I am definately stasified with this subscription


title: Good mistake

text: Well, for some reason I thought I was buying People, not style watch. But I actually enjoyed flipping thru it...so I'll keep it.


title: disappointed

text: Despite numerous e-mails to everyone concerned, I have received no response from anyone as to why this magazine has never showed up.  I have yet to receive even one issue and repeated inquiries go unanswered, however, they have my money. It would be nice to be able to write a review, however that is not possible at this time until someone finds my missing magazine.


title: Good Magazine

text: I would recommend this magazine to other fashionistas. Great articles that not all focus on fashion but world issues. I recommended this to my sister and she loves it.


title: Great Fashion Mag

text: This is a great magazine for celebrity watching and all. Has great articles and fashion spreads. Hate the number of ads in there but it is all part of the advertising.


title: Love!

text: I love this magazine. It's full of fashion tips and not cluttered with ads and articles. Straight forward and can't miss.


title: Haven't received it yet!

text: I would love to review this as requested but I have not received the magazine.  It was ordered 11/30/09.  Today is 2/1/10.  Should I not have received the first magazine by now?


title: Great Special for 2 years -But I only received 1 Year !!!

text:
I bought 3 magazines during a special Amazon was running.
I don't remember the cost, but it was around $15 for 2 years -- home run !!!

Received quickly, so all in all a great deal -- not sure what's going to happen next year when there's no show, but for now -- I'm good to go
***UPDATE
I only received 1 Year -- What a rip off


title: Received Quickly - But I only received 1 year

text:
Received very quickly ( not like People Style which I never received).
The magazine is fashion foward, with a celeb interview scattered thoughout.

From memory, 2 years were $5 -- how can you go wrong ??

Update --
I only received 1 year


title: Never Received

text:
I recieved the other 2 magazines I signed up for -- but crickets on this one.
2 out 3 ain't bad.
I don't think so,.
Either send the magazine, or refund the money !!!


title: For five bucks, why not?

text: I have found PeopleStyleWatch to be an enjoyable magazine that offers some great suggestions and ideas for those who don't, or can't, spend absurd amounts on their wardrobes.  They also offer great ideas on beauty.  For those that have not received their first issue yet, they do acknowledge upfront that it can take up to 8 weeks to receive the initial one, as it did for my first issue of InStyle for $5.00, offered here on Amazon some months ago.  If they don't start at all, or someone receives a few issues and they then stop coming, all you need to do is contact the circulation department of the publishing house that publishes them.  Often times it is because the Post Office has inadvertantly returned an issue, claiming wrong address or some such other false claim, and they put the magazines on hold. It happened to me with my Allure subscription a few years ago and no, I hadn't moved at all but for some absurd reason, the Post Office sent an issue of Allure back, claiming I no longer resided at that address.  When I found the correct number to call (do an online search for the publisher and call or e-mail their circulation dept) the CS rep explained that an issue had been returned and they had no way of knowing that it was inaccurate information.  They then resumed sending them and added the appropriate amount of months on to my subscription to make up for the months I didn't receive them.  If you do nothing to correct an obvious mistake, then nothing is going to happen to fix or correct it.  These companies want their subscribers to receive their magazines so don't just ignore it when an obvious error has taken place.<br />Regarding InStyle versus Peole StyleWatch, InStyle is filled with massive amounts of advertising, while People StyleWatch is not at all so of course there would be a huge difference in the size of the magazines.  I get a little overwhelmed with thumbing through the endless pages of ads sometimes so I enjoy the ease of People's Style Watch as a break from that. For $5.00, it's not much of an investment for a years worth of some good ideas and suggestions in an easy to read format.


title: Stylin"

text: Colorful and on trend style information with accessible ideas!  Also, style ideas from celebrities that you can reinvent for yourself.


title: People Style Watch Magazine order

text: I ordered this Magazine (People Style Watch) December 1st it was supposed to arrive in 6-10 weeks it has been over 10 weeks and I have yet to see on issue. I have e-mailed and called customer service and gotten no response from the e-mail and no satifaction or refund over the phone.  I am very disapointed. I will be very leary of ever ordering discounted priced magazines from here again.

title: great magazine... but I haven't recieved any issue yet!

text: I purchased this magazine more than 2 months ago and I haven't recieved any issue, I contact the seller and the answer was: " there's more demand that we can handle, so expect your issue in february or march" that's crazy to wait so long to get a magazine! The price is not so good like other deals here in amazon of $5 a year.. but I guess I will have to cancel the order and buy it at the news stand.


title: We Love People Style

text: My two daughters and I fight over People Style on who gets to read it first. We love it when they find styles simular to the stars but a lot more affordable.


title: Five Stars

text: Great saving.


title: Did not receive yet

text: The only reason im ranking it so low is that i did not receive a one issue yet...i purchased it in november and february is here and nothing is happening...<br />i dont know how is the communication between the amazon and magazine issuer...please make it right!


title: upset

text: I am very upset I subscribed to this magazine and never received an issue , an acknowledgement, nothing, and I was looking forward to this magazine being that I used to always buy it on the newstand, I feel like i have been ripped off .


title: Never received, was cheated!!!!

text:
I ordered it in Nov 2009 for one-year issues of 2010, but till now Feb, 10, they never arrive. After contacting them, they only gave excuse as "Our system indicates that your subscription will begin with the March issue"!!!
I asked what does one-year issue mean? Or Did your explain implying that this one year order is from March issue 2010 to March 2011?
They never reply!! only repeat as "Our system indicates that your subscription will begin with the March issue"
I ordered 5 types of magazines in the same terms, only this "People" didn't arrive and lied in such way!!!
The rest have already arrived in Jan 2010.
I will continue to find out what is going on with them and who is their manager response for this stupid excuse! Waste my money and time and destroy my mood!!!


title: PEOPLE STYLE WATCH

text: I was asked to review this magazine. Well I paid for it already and had ordered it on 11/29/09. I still have not recieved my 1st issueof it. So I can not rate it and now I have to find out why I have not received it. So far not a good experience.


title: Trouble in the processing department?

text: I was looking forward to reading People magazine, but I have been disappointed so far.  I placed the order in November of 2009 and feel that they have had ample time to process my order, because it is now February 2010. I have yet to receive the first copy.  It is quite irritating because the company had no problems collecting the debt.  Go figure!  Still waiting!

text: Awesome


title: Stylist

text: Want to stay on the radar for Fashion/Beauty this is your source...


title: Stylist

text: In my former career, I was a personal shopper with an High End department store. I truly enjoy Style Watch, this magazine keeps me informed. Great Looks, Prices & Sales.. I would highly recommend to young & mature women everywhere.


title: Never received

text: Order this magazine because I love it but never received a single copy and still paid.


title: Renewal Notice Arrives - Where are my 7 Missing Issues???

text: Purchased multiple subscriptions for friends and family. Imagine my horror when I realize their gifts are arriving sporadically IF AT ALL!!! Only received 3 out of 10 promised issues the entire year for my subscription. Seems to be a pattern with this Company. Yet they have the gall to send me my Renewal Notice. How about the Magazines I've already paid for!!!!!!  Loved the Magazine when it did arrive. Nice change from the typical fashion magazines bizarre clothes that most people wouldn't even wear. These are actually real clothes that you can find in the store or find similar styles at a price point within ones budget. Wouldn't recommend subscription as it is not worth the cost given the sporadic delivery/missed issues, but would recommend reading it/flipping through the pages at perhaps your public library.


title: People Style Watch

text: I subscribed to People magazine form  Amazon on November 30, 2009 and as of today Febuary 1, 2010 I haven't yet received it. I'm very disapointed with Amazon and People magazine. I would like someone to email me an anwser!


title: Five Stars

text: Great rate on a great magazine.


title: Four Stars

text: I love this magazine I just wish it had arrived sooner


title: Empty Mailbox!

text:
The title of this magazine is now beyond ironic.  Each day at the mailbox is literally a People StyleWatch watch!  I ordered this on 30 Nov 2009 and it's now 25 Feb 2010.  I've gotten zero response in all attempts to reach customer service.  It's annoying and I will boycott this publisher (Time, Inc.) in terms of any new subscriptions or renewals.

I do give credit to Amazon for making it somewhat easy to try to get in touch with customer service and for giving us a forum in which to make our complaints.  Thanks!


title: Love this magazine

text: I've been getting this magazine for a couple of years now and I absolutely love it.  I can know what is in style and what isn't and I can rest assured that I will always look as good as possible.


title: Very happy with.

text: It' arrived as discribe actually before the date. Very happy with ..


title: Where's my magazine?

text: So I ordered this magazine along with Cosmo and Sport's Illustrated on November 29th. It is now Jan 28th and still not one issue. I would love to give this 5 stars since I think it will be a fantastic magazine, but I can't because I don't have it :-/


title: where is it?

text: Haven't seen it, so I don't have any idea. I haven't received this magazine yet.


title: Four Stars

text: good to look though when going though your closet


title: One Star

title: Haven't received my order yet

text: I ordered this back in August and I have yet to receive my first issue. I didn't mean to rate this item as (I hate it). I wish I would have gotten it by now.


title: Celeb, fashion, beauty and more

text: The magazine gives everything I'm looking for such as blogger style in all shapes and sizes, and street style. The blip app is an added plus.


title: Yet to receive 1st issue

text: I ordered 3 magazine subscriptions & have received the 1st issue of one, 2 issues of another but yet to receive the 1st issue of People StyleWatch. 1-star rating is too high for such slow service!


title: Five Stars

text: Love this magazine has all the latest fashion and style tips.


title: One Star

text: thought i was purchasing people magazine.  nothing but advertizing


title: good.

text: Just received first copy.<br />Takes too long to get the first copy, but the magazine itself if good.


title: Well, where's the magazine?

text:
I ordered this magazine 8/3/09.
It is now 9/8/09.
I still have not received one issue of this magazine.
So I think even one star is inappropriate.
by the way,
Where's my magazine?


title: Took 3 months for my first issue to arrive

text: I ordered the magazine subscription black Friday weekend because of the great deal for a years subscription.  It was supposed to arrive in about 6-8 weeks.  I kept checking back to see the approx date it would arrive and it kept getting pushed back farther and farther.  Its now mid February and I just received my first issue (March) 2 days ago.  And my 1-year subscription expires in Jan 2011.  So apparently a year is only 10 months now.  Hmm.  Very disappointed with how long it took to get here.  Definitely will not be ordering another magazine through Amazon.


title: People Style Watch

text: I am sure that I will love this magazine, but it has been nine weeks since I placed my subscription order and I have not received the first issue.  HMMM.....  When you guys say 7 to 10 weeks, I guess you mean it.


title: one of my favorites

text: I love this magazine. Its one of my favorites. I love high end magazines like Vogue, Elle, W, In Style, but many of the fashion magazines out there target the wealthy instead of the middle class. I feel like People Style Watch aims more at the middle class and the clothes, makeup, styles they feature are attainable with reasonable prices.You don't need to spend $500,000 a year on a wardrobe to look good. And yes its thinner than most fashion magazines, but there is so much content. I love it. Its possible to look good for less.


title: still waiting

text: I ordered this magazine at the end of November and still have not received my first issue.  I like this magazine when I buy it from the store so if I ever receive it in the mail, I know it will be a good deal


title: Great women's mag!

text: I've been a huge fan of Marie Claire for some time and recently decided to take the plunge and get a subscription. So glad I did. I look forward to it every month and the articles, fashion, etc. are top notch. I recommend getting it as well as [[ASIN:B00005N7OD Allure (1-year)]].


title: Look forward to this every month.

text: This is my new fav mag. It's got so much good info in it that really gives me great ideas about what's hot, trendy, etc. And the layout is so fun and enjoyable to read. I am going to keep gettingn this magazine and would HIGHLY recommend it to any fashionista!! Also recommend: [[ASIN:B00007IJZT InStyle (1-year)]].


title: IN Style is the best mag on the market!

text: Love, love, love my instyle subscription. Every month I get great fashion and see into a wonder stars home. I only wish they would have put out the Instyle home edtion, as I love interior decorating as well. This is a great mag, along with [[ASIN:B00005NIRG Lucky (1-year)]].


title: Get lucky!

text: I so look forward to this magazine every single month. It is filled with the latest styles and it's never too overly trendy. I like how they pair the newer pieces with classics. Also, I love when they have a whole section devoted to bags. This is a great, great magazine and I highly recommend it, along with [[ASIN:B00007IJZT InStyle (1-year)]].


title: Never Received

text: I was looking forward to this magazine.  However, it is well past the date I was given for delivery and I still have not received it.

text: Texas speaks for itself.


title: Be careful on magazine offers

text: Great magazine not sure how to get out of it.  Now being charged full price.  Amazon, how do I change this.


title: Great at first.  Then it gets super expensive with no way out as far as I can tell

text: I love the New Yorker.  However amazon made it very difficult to cancel subscription.  Actually after many attempts I still get it and am being charged full price now.  Be careful on magazine subscriptions.  Starts off really cheap and then full price and I’m not sure how to get out of it.  Amazon this is basically bait and switch

title: Actually Enjoy Waiting For The Mail

text: My Mother and I really enjoy receiving the TV Guide in the mail.


title: Five Stars

text: Good


title: No matter what price you pay, be sure it ...

text: No matter what price you pay, be sure it is too high.95% of the volume are advertisements. For the amount of junk you get, you should be paid to just go through it.


title: Candy, but yum

text: I've subscribed on and off for years, mostly on. It's pure fluff and I tear through my issues within a day or two, usually sending them to recycling before they are off the newsstand. Yet, I miss it when I don't have the recaps and overview of the entertainment scene.<br />Admittedly, I skip the music section entirely. I miss the old media/tech section where they reviewed game software, but as they probably recognized, there's better and free stuff on these topic already out there.


title: Satisfied

text: The product arrived on time the contents were what I wanted and more.  I look forward to other issues in the future.


title: One Star

text: Never got the clutch.


title: okay content, bad service from publisher  BUYER BEWARE

text: I originally ordered Mailbox News from this publisher only to find out that they were cancelling that publication.  Instead they offered me this magazine.  I wanted my money back.  After six months of promises, but no action I finally said okay just send me this magazine (better to read something about cake decorating than getting nothing).  Then it took more than 6 more months to get my first issue.  One full year after my original submit I finally got a magazine.  Then, because this magazine cost slightly more than the Mailbox News that I wanted, I won't get as many issues as I subscribed for.  Rumor has it, in the cake decorating circles, that even this publication is about to go under.  BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!


title: best sewing magazine

text: very accurate


title: Price was RIGHT!

text: What a deal on a great publication!  Every week my father is waiting by the mail box!  Thank you!


title: Now we are talking

text:
I am a good cook, when I feel like it. most of the time I pick up a cookbook or a magazine, I would like to try things but would have to go to the grocery store or buy a new pan, etc.  Picked up my first "everyday food" from the checkout line. I liked that it was in a smaller digest size and the pictures looked appealing. I didn't expect to really be cooking from it right away. figured I could save some recipes for a holiday or a free weekend. I took it to bed with me that night and scanned it from cover to cover.
I have made 5 recipes from this first issue. and 2 of them I have made more than once. they were all simple to prepare, had ingredients I already had in my kitchen and didn't require massive amounts of prep work. the recipes were easy to follow, and turned out so delicious that I couldn't get over myself for making them. Most of them used one pan, one bowl one knife and less than 10 ingredients. my copy is already dog-eared and I have marked several other recipes I am going to try. delicious food that turned out looking remarkably like the photography (which is very nice)
here's the clincher. EVERY recipe has the nutritional breakdown for calories, fat, protein, carbohydrates and fiber. so no matter what sort of diet you are on, or even if you are not, you have the information.
I will be subscribing. it is a little on the expensive side for a cooking magazine. but I have already taken more from it than I paid for the news-stand price so I feel it is worth the money. I will probably base my thanksgiving and christmas menus off of this magazine, at least til I get the next issue.


title: We love baby bug

text: We love baby bug! Both my kids have loved it from 12+ months. It is always a joy to find in the mailbox.


title: Finally!  A "Real" parenting magazine.

text: Finally!!!!!  A magazine that is fairly down to earth.  It is not written by a bunch of experts who have no clue what a real day in the life of a parent is like.  This magazine gives real advice by real parents.  I have never liked parent magazines before because they seemed so far removed from reality (I'd like to see those so-called experts try their rediculous ideas during a tantrum, etc). The articles in this magazine are excellent and the content is extremely relevent to the school years child, including tweens.  I also like that it is easy to read with short articles.  As a busy mom whose brain is mush half the time, it's nice to read something before bed that can be done quickly and without intense concentration.  If you are tired and looking for honest, real answers....even if it is NOT the politically correct answer, this magazine is for you.


title: Good

text: Like it


title: Love the magazine...Hate the Amazon Service

text: I purchased this magazine subscription on 03/05/07 why is it a month later and I still have not received it?


title: Beadwork magazine is a lot of fun.

text: I like the mixture of projects suitable for beginning, intermediate, and expert beaders.  Instructions are clear, diagrams are excellent, and each issue clearly demonstrates more techniques than the whole dozen books I bought before discovering this magazine.  Reading Beadwork magazine brings me to my happy place.


title: Rock and Gem rocks!

text: I love this magazine's mix of articles on rock collecting expeditions, sales events, how to's and the detailed info on one gemstone or mineral per month.  The writers are highly qualified, and each has a distinct and enjoyable writing voice.  Pictures are drool-worthy.


title: Four Stars

text: a pretty good magazine, some months it has bands you like and some months it does not.


title: If I could get it, I would like it

text:
Since Bloomberg took over the magazine, the quality of the articles has improved, and I really enjoy the fact that there are several longer articles in each issue, and that they are continuous (no jumping thirty pages to get the last couple of paragraphs).

That is, I like it when I get it.  SInce they "improved" their delivery system last fall, I've received less than 1/3 of the issues.  We live in a condo building and apparently the newspaper delivery person is supposed to leave it on Friday morning.  Week after week, I open the door and it is not there.  My mother lives in the same building, and she has received a couple issues (tucked inside her paper).

Just in case someone actually does leave the paper in our building, they have removed all identifying information -- so if it is in the lobby, there is a "free" magazine for the first person walking by.  That's not to say I get the newsstand edition -- there is still an ugly big white address box on the cover,  it just is empty.

Of course, the first thing they want when you try to contact them is your subscription number  -- sorry, but I don't keep six month old magazines lying around.  When I finally just sent off an email to them around around the holidays, I actually got 3 issues in a row.  But nothing the last 3 weeks.

I subscribe to 6 other magazines, and have not had these problems with any of them (special kudos to Mental Floss, which actually began my subscription with the issue that was currently on the newsstands when I signed up).

Maybe their newly improved journalists should do an article about shoddy subscription fulfillment services -- or maybe they have -- I wouldn't know.


title: not appropriate for the age advertised!

text: I bought this subscription for my 11 year old daughter.  When the first issue arrived I quickly took it so I could read it cover to cover before giving it to her for the first time.  I was shocked.  If the editors think this is appropriate reading material for a 10 or 11 year old then I am scared for our girls.  I thought maybe this issue was a fluke so when the next one came I did the same thing.  I had to confiscate that one as well, and every one that has come since then.  I am saving them all and when she gets older I will give them to her, maybe.  She is now 12 but I would still not let her read this garbage.  So many of the q and a's are girls desperatly wanting attention from boys, and asking how they can get it.  And the answers...  If my daughter did the things they are suggesting I would be so disappointed in her.  Overall this magazine is garbage for 10-15 year olds.


title: good magazine

text: I was diagnosed with ADD as an adult, and this magazine has been helpful to me. Other reviewers have commented on the content. What I find most impressive about the magazine, though, is how well it's put together for an ADHD audience: it doesn't come out every month, the issues and the articles are a good length, and the format is engaging. This is the only regular publication I actually keep up with -- it never ends up in the to-be-read-someday pile. It's not too long to read in one sitting. Because I'm an adult, most of the child-oriented content doesn't apply to me, but there are articles on adult ADHD too, and there's always something in each issue that sticks with me, whether it's a useful gadget, a helpful way to explain my ADD behavior to others, or an insight into my own way of interacting with the world. The most recent issue answered a medication question I'd been worrying about. This is definitely a worthwhile magazine.


title: Great magazine

text: This is a great magazine that everyone in the house will enjoy reading. I will renew this subscription again this year.


title: Great Mag!

text: Great magazine.  Great articles.<br />Just one suggestion - make it available on the Kindle!


title: Will always subscribe

text: Great magazine, it highly influences my major purchase decisions.  The articles are well written and I love the goofy ads in the back


title: So happy with this subscription!

text: My mother ordered this subscription for me for a Christmas gift and I am so grateful. The first two issues have arrived at my door and I have devoured them both. They are a treat to receive. I won't explain what other reviewers have already noted about how each article is written with tantalizing detail and incredible explanations. That's already been said quite a few times. I do, however, want to say this about their customer service. So far, I have not received any other products in the mail from them threatening me to send back or pay. I hope that I don't as that will take my opinion of the company down a notch. But, so far, their customer service has been exemplary. About two days after my first issue arrived, it was unfortunately destroyed beyond further use. I immediately contacted the company and requested a replacement. It arrived in an envelope a mere four days later. I was quite impressed and have no customer service complaints whatsoever!


title: AWESOME!!!

text: Essence magazine is a WONDERFUL resource for women of color!!!!


title: Nice Gift

text: I gave this subscription to my Mother and Father-in-law, but they wish it had the schedule for daytime TV.  They are both retired and are at home durign the day and want this included in the book.


title: My Magazine Shrunk

text: Wow.  Number of Pages and articles has considerably decreased from just 9 or 10 yrs ago when I last subscribed to this.  The magazine seemed small. so I compared it to copies I have from that time, and sure enough about 1 square inch smaller.  Kind of like today's Newspapers.  I wish the Annual Subscription price would shrink as well. $25/yr is pricey. Should be no more than $15.  Overall, It covers Topics I want and would recommend the Purchase.


title: Love it and use it for feeding informative articles to ...

text: Wish Nat Geo came out twice a month! Love it and use it for feeding informative articles to my history students and children.


title: One Star

text: Terrible, no longer journalism, just made up stories for shock value. Complete trash.


title: Popular Mechanics

text:
I was going to renew he sub. for the mag. anyway. This was the best price in town.

I only gave it a three (3) star, no fault to AMAZON, as I have been purchasing Popular Mechaniics for over Forty years and the three stars are for PM, as it is no where as great a mag. as it once was. Sorry PM, but the "Egg Heads" now control the topics and the people of my generation, the ones paying all the bills and taxes, have a hard time understanding a lot of what PM is talking about.

Oh well, it's a young mans world, I guess.


title: I never thought this would happen to me.....but.....

text:
I never though this would happen to me......

I love this magazine. Not only because of the slick layouts, the great eye-candy, and willingness of the publisher to use models who don't have fake breasts, but for another reason entirely: I've had one of my experiences/stories published in this magazine a few years ago. I added enough tidbits about me and my sweetie to give my friends (who know both me and my GF) proof that I actually submitted the material.

I am sure that many of the stories are bogus, but not all of them are. I guess in some way that  is journalistic integrity.


title: Good Magazine, bad service

text: I liked this magazine so much that I would renew for the longest term possible.  Last time I did this in about 6 months I got a notice that my subscription was running out.  So I renewed again for, I believe one year.  I then started getting the magazine both at my work and at my house.  After about 3 months both mailings stopped.  I figure I paid for about 2 years of magazines and got 8 months worth.<br />I don't have time to keep track of my subscriptions and write to the magazine to straighten things out. So I won't subscribe again.  I will look up online the recent articles and if there is a good one I will go to Barnes and Noble and read it while standing at the magazine rack.


title: One Star

text: I never got the printed version of the magazine and the tote took half a year to actually get


title: Five Stars

text: Great magazine!


title: Fair and Balanced Review

text: Just to balance out the one star reviews I read here, I must say that this is a first rate publication, really outstanding, and that I've never had any problems with my subscriptions. I've been a loyal and avid reader for over six years. Give it a try. It will inspire on many levels.

text: This is a great magazine, and well worth the money.  It has great articles and reviews.<br />HOWEVER, why would any sane person subscribe to this with out the disk?  The extra few bucks are worth having the demo disk every month.  Don't waste your time with out the disk, go to the horse's mouth, spend the extra few bucks, and get it with the demo disk!

title: WHAT A NIGHTMARE! SAVE YOUR TIME & MONEY, YOU WILL NEVER RECEIVE THE MAGAZINE

text: I ordered the Magnolia Journal on Feb 1st with promises of "Happy Mail arriving in my mailbox soon" - 6 weeks later I contacted Magnolia Journal regarding subscription and was sent on a goose chase involving numerous calls and emails only being told there was no history of my ordered although I had confirmation emails, an order number and proof of draft from my bank account. All the time from the moment of submitting a subscription for the magazine my email is being flooded with emails to purchase from the Magnolia store. I finally received the promise of my subscription being mailed, which would involve two issues that had already been released, my subscription for a year would actually only include 2 issues. WHAT? My email continued to be littered with emails promising the subscription would be arriving and then today I received another email stating that I should receive my subscription no later than April 25th. This is absurd. April 25th will be almost 3 months since subscribing... I have requested to cancel this subscription, its not worth it.


title: TRACK YOUR GIFT ORDERS!!!

text: I have been renewing my subscription to People en Espanol for over 3 years now through Amazon. I just happened to visit my grandmother (September 2009) and ask her how she liked her magazines. I didn't see them out anywhere in her stash of reading materials. She said that she hadn't received one since October 2008. I immediately called the magazine's customer service. They stated that they had incorrectly recorded the address using Avenue instead of Drive (as listed in the order) and the magazine was noted as undeliverable since October 2008. They agreed to extend my subscription for the 11 month difference. Don't get me wrong, this is a great magazine, I was just disappointed that they failed to notify me (at my billing address, which is different than the shipping address) that my magazine "gift" was undeliverable. Thank goodness for grandmother's memory. I will not renew this year.

title: All Texas all the time....but still a lot of fun.

text: You don't have to be from Texas to enjoy this delightful magazine. Sure, the focus is on Texas, but there are so many interesting people and places to read about it should hold your interest. And we don't just mean endless stories about nutty politicians.


title: Great Magazine

text: National Geographic magazine is a first-class magazine.  The magazine is full of excellent photographs and well written articles.  I have been a member of the National Geographic Society and taken the magazine since the 1970s.


title: Better than most

text:
I've sub-scribed to GQ for about a year now.  Having gone through a recent editorial change, the fashion angle of the magazine seems to be tilting more towards the "hipster" set, and less on classic fasion.  Case in point - "How to pull off jeans and a hoodie w/ you suit coat"?  Yeah - that'll fly in the corporate ranks.
A recent spread on English suits what closer to what I would call the classic side, but a set of threads from Seville Row is out of the reach of most men at around two grand US.  Plus, there is quite a bit of skin to try and at lest keep up with the Maxim's and FHM's.  Not nearly as much, but it's there.
Nonetheless, for those flaws, there is plenty of good writing and you'll at least get a sense of where fashion is heading.  Am I going to drop six bills for a Prada cashmere turtleneck - probably not, but could something simliar be had for a fraction of that?  Absolutely.

title: Don't really need the disk unless you don't have Live

text: This magazine is great, very informative and easy to read. You can bet that if they give a game a good score it's a good game. On the issue of disk, you don't really need it if you have Xbox live because the disk really just contains demo's that Xbox live offers you sooner. I find myself not playing the disc because I have already downloaded the demo 3 weeks ago. They sometimes put on special items like gamer pics and free game content but if you don't have the game it isn't anything special and could be downloaded cheaper than paying for the disks.


title: Great

text: This is a great magazine. I’ve been getting it for years.


title: MORE is One of my Favorites

text: Great articles, addresses more of what I need to know at this point of my life. I gave this as gifts to many people and I am sure we'll have some great discussions...


title: Don't buy it

text: I placed my order (and paid for the full subscription) in July.  It is now mid December and I never received any magazines.  I wrote Amazon, but they said I have to write the Magazine Express folks <customerservice@magazine-subscriptions-amazon.com.  After three emails to Magazine Express I finally got a response saying they would cancel my order and refund my $22.95 in one or two billing cycles (months) on my credit card.  They said they'd send me a confirmation email in a week.  It's been two more weeks, and I received no confirmation, and no refund.  You'd be better off buying the magazine straight from the Equine Wellness site.  It's been 6 months these folks have had my money, and I am still fighting to get it back.  By the way, Magazine Express never apologized for the mistake - makes me wonder.


title: Cooks Illustrated on-line gift subscriptions

text: Every year I tell myself I will not use Cooks on-line gift subscription service but  for some reason - that is where I go for magazine gift subscriptions. I usually purchase between 4 and 6 gift subscriptions  and always include the recipients email address so they can be notified by Cooks of the gift (a service Cooks offers for electronic gift subscriptions). This also gives Cooks email addresses of potential customers. When I check with my gift recipient, I find that none have ever received electronic notification of my gift subscription. Happened again this holiday season. I recently sent them an email complaining of the lack of follow through and weeks later received a bizarre email response - totally unrelated to my complaint. I love the magazine - love giving the magazine but the very poor customer service and follow through May change my gift giving plans for next Christmas!!! I have been a subscriber for at least 10 years. Soozwood

I highly recommend for anyone having difficulty with regular print.


title: Reasonable Price plus Kindle Selling Points for Amazon Subscription

text:
Not been much of a TV Guide reader since TV remotes started sporting a Guide button, but the wife insists we get it so we do... you understand? However, the fact that Amazon subscription included Kindle just percolated into my awareness, and that merits a "Like" from me.

Should also mention that I love the fact that I can chuck all the annoying TV Guide renewal reminders straight into the recycle bin. Hence the five stars.

title: Gift for Husband

text: My husband was excited about this magazine!  Super photos and brought back boyhood memories for him!  I did not rate 5 because of the amount of advertisements that were included.

text: Blues lovers should check out the Mississippi double issue (vol. 35, #2 & #3).  This is an in-depth look at the blues scenes (historical and living) of blues performers, locations, events, etc. all over the state.


title: A serious journal on asian studies

text: I recommond this serious journal on asian studies, which established it's fame in the past six dicades. It's specialized on history, language, linguistic, literatrue and phisolophy of asia, especially on east asia, China, Korea and Japan. Archives can be found on JSTOR, but the "moving wall" of JSTOR only allows reader to access 2004's and before.

title: A Nearly Perfect Consumer Publication

text:
If you are truly a motorcycle enthusiast, then this is a MUST HAVE subscription.  The motorcycle reviews are thorough and unbiased.  The monthly columns are interesting and timely.  The gear and accessories articles are honest and believable due to the publication NOT having to suck up to advertisers.

I can't say enough positive things about this magazine.  Will you agree with everything you read in its pages?  As witnessed by the reader's letters published each month, of course not.  But, you will at least be presented with honest appraisals.

At the discounted Amazon subscription price, you can't go wrong.  Try it for a year.  You'll probably renew.


title: Not a sure thing!

text: Still waiting for first issue to arrive.


I'm a little disappointed in the emphasis on heavy metal.  I don't mind heavy metal - but I can only take so much.  I'm interested in all styles of guitar.


title: Likeable

text: A macro magazine, not for traders (e.g. Barrons or TA magazines), and not for lifestylers (e.g. Forbes, Fortune), but good collection of useful articles, some of them deep. So you get something in the middle, a feed of interesting articles about economics, politics, mergers, business events and successes (e.g. Inc, Fast Company). Luckily no bs about riches, and top charts of nonsense. The style is wonderful: easy-going original and useful graphics. Liberal bias. The drawback is very slow delivery to Europe. Evidently the US-EU trade agreement will help, as it's a joke how difficult is to trade anything between the western nations.


title: flashy but boring

text: I've subscribed to kindle version. Very hard to read on android. Ads ads ads everywhere, i cannot even distinguish between ads and content. Content boring, mechanically harvested as the editor sets up to goals. We need list of most creative people? Ok lets collect 5 sentences for each, and interview with some of them. So predictable. But the value of text is low, i wasnt inspired by a single sentence. Wrong choice for me. Too bad i was impressed by their infographics which look so cool in Flipboard. But i guess receiving Fast Company articles by the news aggregator from time to time is just enough for me, don't need the magazine.

title: Have liked House Beautiful Magazine for Years!

text: House Beautiful Magazine is one of those magazines that you can get lost in. All those beautiful rooms. All those decorating tips. Some you can use and some you'll probably never use. Many of the homes and decorations are not for the average person. Nevertheless, it's still fun to dream. I know it's a decorating magazine, but I sure would appreciate more recipes!


title: Favorite Magazine

text: I love this magazine, and loved getting it for such a bargain!  I'd love to subscribe, again sometime!  Waiting for another deal!


title: Southwest Art Magazine

text: Excellent magazine for anyone interested in art or how to create/stage  beautiful pictures. I would highly recommend this magazine<br />Very colorful..


title: love it

text: I like the Tv guide and even getting a print as well is a plus. On kindle its fun and its easy to read the small prints. I would buy this magazine and you will be happy.

title: From a long time subscriber

text:
This once was my favorite cooking magazine. It had great features from great cooks. The emphasis was on fresh for the most part. There were very few mistakes which was a bonus. Gone are the great (and helpful) articles on catering your own party and the like.

Now it is recycled fill from the other Meredith publications . Nothing original. Nothing inspiring.

I'm happy I didn't toss my multi-decade's worth of Fine Cooking magazine. I'll be hanging on to them for a while.

I only have a few months left on my subscription and I won't be renewing.

P.S. Take notice that most of the top reviews are from years past. Such a shame!


title: Mailing labels are not removable - or are they?

text:
This magazine uses mailing labels on the cover that do not come off easily. This discourages passing on the magazine, as I'd like my info private. Ripping off the label makes the magazine look ruined and not suitable for passing on. So I find it ironic (and suspicious) that Wired is not aware of this "problem". So I assume they choose the labels and adhesive intentionally for this effect. Rolling Stone, in contrast, like so many other magazines, use a nice removable adhesive that peels right off. I will not renew due to this issue, which is a pity. I feel sorry for all the creative people that create the content only to be continually sabotaged by stupid management decisions.

Edit: I suppose the first two issues I got were sent from a back-fulfillment deal? Because the newest Sept issue comes in a plastic bag so there is no mailing label madness at all. So I feel silly with my complaint now, but I'll leave it posted I guess.

Still kept a star because ads and content are too often indistiguishable. Which is intentional supposed marketing genius, but I think it reduces credibility.


title: Informative reading !

text: One of my two favorite ""toilet-occupying magazines", along with Wired. They both inform and educate me, though in different ways. I learn things from front to back.


title: Worth every nickle and more !

text:
I had purchased an item from Amazon and was offered Wired on a Special Offer. I thought, "What the heck"! Glad I took the bait. Thank YOU, Amazon!

Wired HAS to be one of the most interesting magazines I have read in my sixty-six years. I read it front to back. Occasionally, an article my not be within my scope of interest, but by and large, most articles are interesting. Normally, the main cover article is the longest...but it is also the best written and most interesting article. Every month I ALWAYS have at least one article to "rant" about. VERY informative.

The last, long cover article I read was about the "coming of age" of robots. Oddly, not long before reading the article, I was recently pondering that question myself. What WILL we as humans DO, when robots do it all for us? The article answered my question. The "Industrial Revolution" 1760 ~ 1840 caused considerable consternation, posing by many, the same question I had. Sewing machines? Oh, the ruination! We adopted and lived through it...as we have ever since.

When I started reading my first issue, I thought, "Nah, not going to like this." I was wrong. By the time I got to the end of it, I was  hooked. I renewed for for three more years, almost immediately after reading my very first issue.

Great magazine! I HIGHLY recommend it.

title: Great for anyone eating clean.

text: I try to eat clean as much as I can, a big fan of Tosca Reno, so when I saw she mentions Clean Eating Magazine on her website, I just had to subscribe to the magazine.


title: get a free bag too!

text: They had a deal online where you could get the same price $69.95/2 years here but you also got a free tote bag! Just call and ask.


title: Husbands Beware!

text: This is my wife’s favorite magazine! She always finds projects to do and says they inspire her. Of course that is usually involves work for me because we are “doing the project together “


title: Lots of Ideas, doable projects!

text: This magazine has many ideas and projects for spiffing up the home.  Good advice from the pros about diy repairs around the house.  Usually I read it cover to cover the same day it arrives!


title: Love this magazine

text: This magazine is very informative and has a good variety of topics.I always look forward to getting it because it gives me lots of ideas about different things. The only thing I wish it had was a crossword puzzle for my husband to work. I would recommend it to anyone.


title: Thanks but no thanks

text: The New Yorker appeals to people with a lot of time on their hands, there are simply too many articles to read every week.  Or, as somebody said, it is<br />a good magazine for a doctor's waiting room. Regretfully, I had to cancel my subscription.

title: Best Magazine on Maine These Days

text: This time-honored magazine on New England has more better researched and interesting articles on Maine than the once great Magazine on Maine, Down East, has under its current editorial management-- which has editorially morphed into "the Best Food Magazine on Portland."  Yankee not only covers all of Maine much better than Down East but it has excellent articles on New Hampshire, Vermont and the other New England states that makes you want to day trip across the border to visit some of their featured places.


title: Down on Down East

text: We are long-time fans of this magazine, but have been seriously disappointed with the editorial direction the last few years.  Prior editors were more focused on the history and culture of Maine but the new editorial focus seems to be on restaurant reviews.  Increasingly, the magazine is full of advertisements and articles about the food scene.  Yankee Magazine (covering all of New England) has lately had many more well-researched articles on Maine than Down East.  Case in point: Down East kicked off the lovely Fall season in Maine with a cover and long feature on hamburgers. Hamburgers in October, in Maine?  Yankee splashed its Jan-Feb covered with a glossy picture of donuts and had a shorter article on "comfort foods" (which included a burger or 2) but then had an in-depth article on the new Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument; another nice on the Perry-Macmillan Arctic Museum at Bowdoin; another on dog sledding in Newberry, Maine; a fascinating article on Nordic skates (which Mainers need to learn about); and interesting things over the border in New Hampshire, like the Ice Castles in Lincoln, NH and the Thornton Wilder "Our Town" legacy in Petersborough, NH, and there was more on Maine worth reading in that issue. Yankee is in touch with the changing seasons of New England.  I don't know what Down East is in touch with anymore-- burgers in October?  Month after month, as I flip through the advertisements and food reviews and spend mere minutes on the substance in Down East, then spend hours on the Maine sections of Yankee, I wonder why I still subscribe to the Magazine on Maine.  I wish Down East could get an historian as editor again and regain its meaningful focus.

My wife is happy, and that makes me happy

title: This Magazine Tells The Future

text:
I have been reading Popular Science for at least 30 years along with the time I used to read it as a teenager. Most of the articles are of value in one way or another. Sometimes I will read part of an article and think I am getting bored but out of the blue they usually grab my attention to the point of where I have to read the whole article to the end in one setting.
Another great quality of this magazine is that the section "What's New" has products that usually take 1 to 3 years to make it to market. This gives the reader plenty of time to research the products and invest in the ones that look promising. I have made lots of money this way. Up until about ten years ago it was like clockwork that an item in the "What's New" section would finally make it to market in three years, but now it is anywhere from 1 to 3 years from my experience of researching the items that grab my attention. I can only imagine the reason for that is due to the advancements in engineering and manufacturing. A great example of this is the "3-D" printer which prints parts by printing layer after layer of material and then curing the part with UV light or other sources. I read about this product years ago and now it is being used far more than I could ever expected. When I read about it I thought this is so far out there that I probably wouldn't see it in my lifetime but here it is.
There is so much interesting stuff to read about that I have had to limit my reading of Popular Science to my personal time in the bathroom. This usually spreads the issue out for the whole month until the next issue arrives.
This is by far the most bang-for-the-buck magazine out there.

I won't lie, I still love American Girl, it's really neat and I love it, even though I'm thirteen years old I don't care what anyone says like 'oh my gosh you still read this'? I would say 'Yes I do.' I also love Discovery girls the same as American girl, Here are the Pro's and cons'

Pro's

American girl let's any age be the model

the magazine doesn't put on the cover "for girls ages 7-up" because then,

girls of other ages would say "no way jose`"

They have appropriate stuff in there

CONS

they don't do Celebrity interviews like Discovery Girls Does

The magazine only comes out two months like 'febuary' 'april.' that sort of thing

The magazine is just way to expensive! I mean, when I want an issue I practically have to cough up all my cash to pay for it!

I'm doing the smart thing now, I'm buying Back issues of American girl On ebay, and the amazing thing is, they sell them for only 2.99!!! Jeez!

I have 12 issues of Discovery Girls, and 11 issues of American girl

title: What a waste

text: Only received 1 magazine and now it's been months with no additional issues. I was really excited about this magazine but I'll not renew.


title: Not for a true Otaku

text: The anime and manga the articles are about are never current, they are titles released months or years ago. I thought the purpose of an Otaku magazine would be talk about up coming and newly released titles, both popular and niche, but that is not the case. My wife didn't care for them at all, a poor choice for a gift. Also, though it was my own fault for not noticing, you are only getting 6 issues over 12 months for what you pay...


title: Trains

text: Perfect


title: Disappointed!!!

text: I liked the magazine, what I don't like is the magazine going out of business and substituting with Magnolia magazine that doesn't concentrate on gardening. The other problem is I only got one copy in april and no more.


title: You might not get it

text: I only got one National Geographic for the whole year so why would I want to re-up again it is a fabulous magazine but for this particular instant instant I only received one


title: new subscription

text: I like the magazine so far, it is hard to do a review with something you have had for only 2 days.  It is informative with excellent photographs.  Articles are as I suspected when I subscribed.  Keep up the good work.

title: Very satisfied

text: Very sastisfied.  My husband likes reading articles from the sportswriters of other areas. Gives good insight and  good coverage.<br />He misses Sporting News which he read for years but this comes in close.


title: Disappointed

text: Tough our kids seemed to be interested for a couple days, there were not much content inside. Very thin to begin with and too many ads. And they sent three issues at once. Where is the fun in that? And they came all folded up and damaged.


title: 25 best innovations

text: In 2018 I had renewed a subscription for my son but he went months without receiving any issues. Once notified Decibel sent EVERY issue he had missed!!! I never got to thank anyone so I'm doing it now. He was thrilled! Fantastic customer service!


title: Excellent Magazine, dont buy it on AMAZON!!!

text: I completely agree with the previous reviewer. This magazine can be purchased directly from bloomberg for significantly less and without a middleman. The magazine however is fantastic and I highly recommend it. I have problems with magazines like fortune which seem to babble on about people or events that leave me asking, "So what?" This magazine isn't a time or newsweek that is flimsy with minimal content. No, this magazine can take hours to read and is full of interesting and relevant information to both wall street and the american political system and what it means to the economy. Also, not too many advertisements, so you get more content than competitors. Great!!!


title: Five Stars

text: Very good.


title: Magazine has really gone downhill. Too many Weird people living in weird houses.

text: I do not like that the magazine completely ignores the most celebrated of our holidays.  The only sign of anything Christmas in the December issue the last two years is an ad from the City of Charleston. Very disappointing because I look to my magazines for holiday decorating inspiration..


title: History is always interesting especially if it is something you actually experienced.

text: The Good Old Days brings back many good and bad memories, but to read about these things many years after I experienced them myself and lived in between the folding pages of these stories is absolutely remarkable.  If you have not tried this magazine you need to buy one at the store and take some me time and read it from cover to cover.  I would venture to say that before you finish the rich stories  supplied by the authors you will have subscribed to the magazine.  Keep up the good work "Good Old Days"


title: Great Magazine

text: I've read National Geographic since I was a little. I always enjoyed the wonderful photography in the magazine, and I have to admit, that's still the part of the magazine that I enjoy the most. Oh, I read the articles once in a while, but many of them have a liberal slant on them that I don't appreciate. Still despite that, the stories are usally well written and the pictures remain outstanding.


title: great magazine

text: This is an all around great magazine if you like to keep up with current events. Especially with all the economic ups and downs right now, it is full of information. In many ways, I like it more than a newspaper, and it is published weekly. Worth the money for the subscription. Also I checked several discounts and it was cheaper through Amazon.

title: Cover to cover, interesting

text: I love this magazine.  I find something to read on nearly every page, with tantalizing recipes as well as informational articles.  The recipes are typically quite good, and while they do have some unusual ingredients for my area, most of the time I can make them without sacrificing a key flavor.  The magazine is printed on decent quality paper and the typeface is easy to read, for me.  The photographs are excellent.  Of all the cooking magazines available, this is the only one I keep subscribed to, and have done so for years, following an initial gift subscription.  Keep up the good work, folks, and keep me cooking!

title: National Geographic is changing, and not for the better

text: When I was a teenager, I looked forward to this magazine. I have been a subscriber for years. Why only 3 stars? This last year or so, articles have been strange. They aren't about some quaint European village or isolated tribe or park, etc. as they were in the past. It's getting pc, and not just with global warming or climate change or whatever they call it this month. Something like "geography of the brain" had some interesting points but it would have been more appropriate for another type of publication. I don't know if I'll renew my subscription.


title: very informative

text: This newspaper has excellent articles about current events in the Church, good editorials, inspirational pieces, an interesting travel section, and reviews of movies and books that offer perspectives not found in other publications.


title: lasting

text: work well


title: Staple

text: like the hobby itself it has declined.  Articles are fair, plenty of ads but not what it used to be.  Too bad.


title: Fun magazine

text: This is one of those magazines you won't throw out when you're done reading it.  Easy to do projects and very inspirational for creating  new products.


title: Provides some good information

text: I enjoy reading the articles and finding out about new places to add to the bucket list.  Gear reviews are nice, and it focuses on backpacking vs Outside magazine which is more general.  Either way it is a nice compliment to an Outside subscription as well.


title: You aren't a horror fan without this

text: You can't call your self a true horror film fan if you are not reading Fangoria or Famous Monsters.  These magazines are great and give you some awesome insight on various movies coming out and from the past, and the interviews are great.

text: I liked it so much that i subscribed to it for 2 of my granddaughters age 12 and 13 and I also got a subscription so that I could talk with them about what it taught.  As a social studies teacher by training it is particularly helpful in teaching our young about real living experiences that they can easily relate to.  I love Cricket magazines and also have subscribed to the ASK magazine for another and younger granddaughter that VERY inquisitive.


title: We both were disappointed in it

Car & Driver is my companion in daylight hours when I step outside my shack to have a smoke. I do not smoke inside, trying to maximize shack resale values when selling time comes. All smoking is done outside. Kinda rough in winter, especially when that frigid wind blows. It is boring just standing there smoking my mini-cigar that is a cross between a cigarette and a real stogie. With Car & Driver on the shelf holding the smokes next to the front door I am prepared to grab a smoke, a lighter and my magazine and outward I trek to sate my need.

Thank you, Car & Driver.

title: I can't imagine a true sci-fi fan who wouldn't enjoy this magazine.

text: I have been a subscriber to this publication since it was first introduced (in conjunction with the Sci-Fi Channel, now SyFy), circa 1992.  It is one of my favorite publications, but I will agree with some of the negative comments.  First, the original publication was not all in color--especially not the glossy heavyweight photographs in today's issues, so the beautiful color photos now are a big draw for a sci-fi fan.  The magazine used to arrive in a plastic sleeve but no longer does.  This results in (regularly) bent and (sometimes) torn pages.  The "TV in Focus" column tells us what is coming in various Sci-Fi series.  No question that it focuses heavily on the SyFy Channel's programming, but it does cover the other channels as well as streaming networks such as Amazon Prime and Netflix.  The publication arrives every two months, so these series updates have usually already aired by the time the magazine arrives.  A large percentage of the pages are devoted to advertising, but a true sci-fi fan should not find this to be negative.  I have purchased books, DVD's, and sci-fi paraphernalia through the publication, and many times I would not have known about these if not for this advertising.  So, I actually do "Love" this publication.  I gave it 4 stars because of the negatives mentioned here.  I am comfortable reading many magazines online, but this one deserves to be enjoyed in the print edition.  The magazine covers literally everything new (and sometimes old) in Sci-Fi in all media.  I am attaching a photo of the kit that came with my first issue, including a membership card and fabric patch. When the network changed its' name to SyFy, the publication was no longer directly associated with the network.  Hence, it kept the original name.

I love this mag and have been a long-time subscriber.  The political and social issue articles are excellent and always thought provoking.

And back to the main point of the magazine, I use it to research and find new music.  The interviews and reviews are always good (though I don't always agree with them but that's expected right!).  Unlike other reviewers I understand that the year is 2011 and music has changed.  We can't always have Jimi Hendrix and the Stones on the cover.  I appreciate that the magazine helps me stay up to date on new music.  But regardless of that, the relevant artists through the decades that are still producing still get excellent coverage in this magazine.  The recent interview with Paul Simon was excellent as well as the articles on the Stones re-issue of the Exile on Main Street album.

title: Best Computer magazine ever!

text: I have been reading this magazine for 3 years and I have not found ANYTHING in the US that comes close to the content and knowledge packed with these pages. Plus it comes with a CD filled with various Full, trial and other Antivirus software that is great.<br />It is expensive but if you have to buy it at a Border's books or Barnes & Noble's it's $15.99 copy. But in my opinion--well worth it as I am always referencing it for various articles and fixes.
