title: NYRB Pricey But a Good Value

text:
NYRB is east coast/ European and Jewish-liberal-intellectual-centric which I realize is a barely literate assessment... just saying. I've subscribed for several years. This subscription, though, was a gift to my sister who is also marginally educated but smart and curious. Since I'm a small-prairie-town Anglo, and since a subscription is fairly expensive to my budget, it should be obvious that I value what I learn here but for the reader that tries to read his subscriptions cover-to-cover, I think you'll be glad when you've completed each issue and can set it aside. I do consider NYRB part of the sort of ongoing education I want. Many of the reviews expose me to authors and history I was unaware of and I've read a number of books I've learned about here.

If I could change one thing about NYRB it would be the format which is large, floppy and can only be read for any length of time by placing it on a table, not sprawled out on a sofa or curled up in an easy chair.


title: Good Housekeeping

text: I have never gotten this magazine but love it. I regularly read Southern Living, Real Simple, The Week and lots of Cooking Magazines and find this one fills another niche.


title: Instant Hit

text: The girlfriend was so excited when I ordered this for her months ago. Our first copy of Food & Wine arrived on October 2nd, and to say my girlfriend was elated, would be an understatement! We ate & drank very well that night.

text: Doesn't even cover stations in the Twin cities area of Comcast/Infinity

title: Five Stars

text: Great articles & great reciep's.


title: Best bird-watching magazine

text: Love this magazine! The articles are interesting and informative, the photos are beautiful, and I love the small portable size. This is the best bird-watching magazine I've found, and I especially like that sometimes there are articles on extinct birds.


title: Loved Entertainment Weekly!

text: I loved receiving this magazine and plan on renewing my subscription once I get more moolah!!! All I need now is a generous benefactor.


title: Great Magazine

text: I love the clear step-by-step project instructions and extensive illustrations and photos which help you develop your woodworking skills. Highly recommended - especially for beginning or intermediate-skilled woodworkers.


title: Good Magazine

text: Interesting and informative articles ranging from simple project for beginners to more difficult and complicated projects for more advanced hobbyists. Great technical articles that help you understand the theory behind what you're doing.


title: I love it

text: I love this magazine


title: good job

text: nice momento to add to my collection.


title: Duplicate subscription

text: One needs to make sure your new subscription does not override an already-existing one.  Should be added on to current subscription.


title: I like this magazine

text: I like this magazine, but not what I thought it would be.  I thought it would be like the old time recipes with fewer basic ingredients.  Not for me because I am older and am a Southern cook, most ingredients to me are too spicy and have to many ingredients, not what I was looking for.

title: Highly Readable

text:
THE NEW YORK REVIEW OF BOOKS is published 20 times a year, biweekly except in January, July, August and September. It is a respected publication which is devoted mostly to reviews of current books and an occasional movie. It also contains articles of social or political interest. The Letters section is usually brief with little waste.

Contributors to a recent edition included Mark Danner, Sister Helen Prejean and Daniel Mendelsohn. Reviews covered such diverse items as a collection of short stories by Graham Greene and two books about the actress Anna May Wong in addition to ALEXANDER, a film directed by Oliver Stone.

THE NEW YORK REVIEW OF BOOKS consistently offers provocative writing in a highly readable style. It definitely deserves its reputation for excellence.


title: Good Pictures, Useful Calendar and Interesting Articles.

text: BLUE RIDGE COUNTRY covers the mountain regions of Virginia, North Carolina, West Virginia, Tennessee, Georgia, Maryland, South Carolina and Kentucky. The best features of the magazine are the pictures and the calendar of events listed chronologically for each state. The rest of the publication contains some interesting articles and of course a lot of advertisements.


title: Must have, must read, bring Germany to your living room

text: Full of great stories, photos, history, foods - love this!


title: Great Educational Tool

text:
This Catholic newspaper is an excellent source for pre-1960's great writings from the Church Fathers, Doctors of the Church, great Catholic writers, articles, papal encyclicals, and catechisms, from the year 100 to 1959. I say pre-1960's because since about that time, MANY Catholic writings have been corrupted and or tinged with hidden or open errors, which a Catholic that is not learned in what the Church taught for 1900 years will not discern.  This publication is an educational tool to help those people of whatever background learn the Catholic Faith as it has always been. ST. VINCENT OF LERINS (400-450 A.D.)

  "What then should a Catholic do ... if some new contagion
were to try to poison no longer a small part of the Church, but all of
the Church at the same time, then he will take the greatest care to
attach himself to antiquity which, obviously, can no longer be seduced
by any lying novelty."  (Commonitorium)


title: Good magazine

text: Arrived sooner than predicted, nice projects and photographs with clear instructions...a little thin for each issue, though.


title: Library of Knowledge

text: The information in these publications are relevant today. Each one of these magazines has more information than you would expect. They are all filled with library resource quality information.


title: Nice but for the wealthy

text: Very informative about places to hike but filled with overpriced gear.


title: Good Magazine

text: I took a chance ordering Premier Guitar - have been long time reader of Guitar Player - I've been very satisfied w/ the diversity of PG's content & will continue getting it another year for sure.


title: Five Stars

text: My mom loves Reader's Digest .


title: Depth and quality

text: Not every issue is a winner, but frequently I find myself reading an issue cover to cover--and I always learn something. I love the format and the content. Even the graphics are great.


title: Gift

text: Was a gift.  It shipped quickly, but is not a title that I would buy for myself.  The recipient is thrilled :)


title: Not the great magazine that it used to be so.

text: People interview, comments and written articles not as interesting as past years. Different times, Different People just not to my interests anymore. Sorry.  Please cancel.


title: Vanity Fair

text: I thought I could get it on my Kindle, but wasn't able to get it.  I found out later that it had to be a Kindle Fire, which I don't have.<br />The magazine was ok, but more advertisements than anything else.


title: Great reads for growing minds

text: My 6 year old and 9 year old both loved the articles and shared what they learned at the dinner table!


title: Great auto enthusiast MAGAZINE

text: Always on time, love to stay updated!


title: Great Magazine

text: Purchased this magazine for a family member as a gift.  He really likes it and I will consider renewing when it's time.

text: I read these magazines front to back and back to front.  I got a one year subscription through Amazon for nine dollars!  Great deal! Great magazine!

text: It's so nice to be able to see who's coming and going in my favorite soaps.  Also, the cover stories are excellent!

text: Great price. Love it.


title: Nice purchase

text: Great for my 6 year old!


title: You’ll Love it if you’re a liberal like me

text: I am a born in bread far left wing liberal from New York City. I love the magazine. I am also the smartest person every time I walk into a room.


title: Do not buy. You’ll never get it. If you don’t heed my warning it’s your fault

text: Do not buy. You’ll never get it. if you do not heed my warning it’s your own fault. You probably have made terrible decisions in the past


title: Great mag!

text: I gave "Wired" 5 stars, because  there was no 6th star! This has been my fav mag for many years. If you like or work in the electronic field this can't be beat! With the last issue I was given a free electronic mag. which is great also.


title: The best media mag. ever!

text: What can I say? I've gotten this mag. for thirty years! Tops for music and great articles on subjects you won't hear about anywhere else!


title: Educating myself!

text: By reading it monthly I also keep myself informed, actually of what's going on around us.


title: Five Stars

text: Timely, investigative, balanced overall, sufficiently broad to aid in decision-making.


title: Subscription

text: Love the magazine, but most of all Amazon makes it affordable.


title: Yeehah!

text: Beautiful photography! Love the artwork, covers and articles. Channeling my inner ranch hand and dreaming of fantasy ranch property. Even the ads are pretty.


title: It isn't about science anymore

text: Had been a long time subscriber, but had to cancel. I am trying to be progressive and open minded, but there's too much political bias in the magazine and it's not at all open to different points of different views, and it's repetitive in their issues. More than half of my last subscription issues were dedicated to either COVID-19 or Black lives movement. I seriously remember only one issue I actually read - had a great article about whales. And not that above mentioned topics are not important, but writing and photographing only two topics doesn't justify the purpose of the scientific magazine. I've missed archeology and history and exciting excavations (my personal favorites). I cancelled my subscription (at least for now) and I am reading through my stack of old issues.


title: Used if For Years at Home, Reluctant Boy Readers Might like

text: I was never so bothered by ads.  Other are, I guess.  I found this magazine to be very good.  My kids both loved and read and reread it.  It has shorter articles in some parts which is great for those with limited attention.  It also has interesting facts which is also great for boys who tend to like reading nonfiction.  If you are the parent of a boy who doesn't like reading, see if your local library has this magazine and try it out on them.  They just might like it.  I teach ESL to newcomers in highschool, and I think I can bring my worn back issues to class for them to read.  Frankly, I think the magazine is fine, and I would consider a subscription for my class.


title: Overall is a good magazine. I know that Russian edition is the ...

text: Overall is a good magazine. I know that Russian edition is the same copy as the original (just translated in Russian) .I don't like that they have 1/3 of the magazine for PLUS size and the rest is junk : food recipes , beauty stuff etc .Who wants that stuff buy "country cooking " or " people " magazines .I buy this magazine because it used to be everything related to crafts and sewing . Also the same patterns repeating in almost every edition of the same year . Are you serious?  From 12 months subscription I barely could use 10 patterns .That's a shame really ..... you need seriously to improve it ,if you want more subscribers.


title: Auto Roundup Magazine - great deal!

text: This is a great deal for anyone who buys this magazine - I get it for my husband each year as a gift since he normally buys it anyway and we save quite a bit off the cover price.  It's super easy to order via Amazon!

title: Great Way To Start Reading

text:
I highly recommend Highlights for children. It's a great way for children to begin reading in a very fun way. Watch your child's eyes read with delight as they have fun with puzzles, hidden pictures, games, and fun and entertaining stories.

title: Something for Women of All Ages

text:
As a typical young female, I've read a lot of different magazines geared toward women. Most, in general, feature the same articles month after month, and therefore become repetitive and boring.  Let's face it: there is only so much you can take reading about "The Best Bedroom Moves" issue after issue.  Allure, however, never seems dull or filled with useless amounts of recycled information.

I began subscribing to the magazine at age 18 (I'm 23 now) and have never been disappointed.  Allure has articles for every age, and I find relevant information for my life, body, and health, and then I am able to find information that will interest and benefit my 50+ year old mother.  Perhaps that is part of the appeal of the magazine: any age group can enjoy it.  Not many magazines can say that.

Unlike many other female-geared magazines, Allure offers more than just underwear pictures and "how to please your man" articles.  Each issue, Allure has an entire section dedicated to new health science discoveries, such as new updates about skin cancer and sleep problems. The magazine seems genuinely about women, beauty, and health, whereas other magazines make some feminists role their eyes ("how to please your man," anyone?)

Like anything else, Allure has its downfalls.  While I do appreciate the make-up, weightloss, and fashion tips, I still always feel that I can never quite live up to the expectation the magazine presents me.  I'm a pretty girl in good physical health, and I still- at times- feel inadequate when reading the many awesome articles of this magazine.

Overall, I recommend Allure highly to women of all ages, shapes, and sizes.  It contains more than just the bubbly sextalk of most female magazines, and therefore you get more zest for your money.


title: It doesn't quite live up to its former glory.

text:
It has a mailbag, news, Wii channels, preview, developers interview, old game flashback, review and community section. So unless you have a Wii at the moment, I wouldn't recommend it.

I never subbed to Nintendo Power before, so I wouldn't know, but I heard it used to be better before. More interesting. It lacks it's hint sections, among other fun sounding sections.

However, it still is entertaining.

I recommend it.


title: Golf Strategy

text: I like the golf instructions and the articles.


title: fun for younger kids

text: My kids loved getting this monthly in the mail box. They learn  kinds of fun animal facts from all over the world. My kids are now moving up to Ranger Rick. Thank you Rick Jr for making learning fun.


title: Great magazine

text: This is a great magazine for any woman. I love that it has healthy eating tips as well as exercise tips.


title: ... my wife a while back and she said she liked it. She used some ideas from it

text: I bought this for my wife a while back and she said she liked it.  She used some ideas from it, but eventually moved on to other publications.


title: Playboy & National Enquirer wrapped in a Candy Science shell!

text:
I had no idea that Popular Science would in fact not include any actual science per se!  You should rename it the National Enquirer of Science.  You might also consider the name Playboy Science, considering the advertising content in the back.

Needless to say, shallow is not deep enough a word to describe the content.  I'm unsure who this is geared toward.  I can only guess the target audience is NOT teenagers and geeks (they have scads of resources for both tech news, which is what this is, though always a few months behind, and soft porn, which is what the ads are).  The audience then must be the scores of middle aged nerds who long for Pop Sci of yesteryear.


title: Great magazine but impossible to cancel

text: I love the magazine, but I tried to cancel the same day that I was notified it was renewing because my kids are all too old. It wouldn’t let me, despite not being scheduled for delivery for 2 months.


title: Political Rag

text: I really used to enjoy RD many years ago but now their digest has become hard to digest....its more political than it used to be and I dont need RD telling me how to think.


title: Where is it?

text: I ordered this magazine from an online website in March, 5 months ago.  Never received a copy.  BetterBusiness Bureau, here I come.


title: love HGTV magazine

text: I saw HGTV magazine at my mom's house.  I love the channel and I love the magazine.  There are decorating ideas, price comparison articles, articles by HGTV hosts...just all kinds of stuff.  My only regret is that it comes every 2 months instead of monthly.


title: A must have for DIYers

text: Excellent magazine for the price. My first issue has some nice projects and ideas. It really meets my expectations but don't look for a highly detailed explained projects. It's only a guide to make your own projects


title: An objective outside's view of the US and European political scene.

text: I dislike the small print size.<br />Otherwise, I find The Economist very worthwhile reading even though some articles are a bit longer than would suit my interests.


title: Who knew a panther had spots

text: I learn something in every issue.


title: Five Stars

text: Good price for an annual subscription


title: Penthouse fun

text: Great price,  great magazine. Wife and I actually enjoy the readers true stories. Penthouse letters is another great read.  Enjoy life to the fullest


title: Overcharged and wrong magazine

text: Wanted The Family Handyman at a special rate of .99¢ but was being billed $5.00 and received 2 issues of Elle magazine! If a woman orders The Family Handyman do you think she has any interest in Elle magazine? Trust me, there isn't anything in Elle that interests me!!!

text: It’s ok just not for me

text: It’s a good read


title: Great magazine!!

text: Lots of useful information and interesting articles


title: Good magazine

text: Very high end magazine with high end prices


title: a good magazine.

text: this was a good deal.


title: Cook's Illustrated

text: Good cooking magazine. Good recipes and techniques explained


title: This is a great magazine!

text: I love this magazine; such a wonderful reminder of my youth.  Great stories and pictures.


title: Five Stars

text: I love this mag, tons of recipes and decorating ideas, as well as outdoor projects.  Great bed time reading.


title: Good read for the inexpensive cost!

text: Covers a lot of topics every month I look forward to it every month!!


title: BEWARE!!!

text: Just like another reviewer, I sent in the card for a preview issue. I did receive one issue, which I found to be of limited value anyway. I have since been bombarded with collection agency notices. I can't believe I may have to get legal help for this. Absolute rubbish.


title: Not the old tv guide

text: Don't like that doesn't have daytime programs and it only goes up to 10 pm


title: Could not relate to any of content

text: Too many ads and no interesting  content.  I leaf thru the magazine in 5 minutes and throw away.  Field notes that suggest "favorite" products are either ugly, useless or overpriced - like a fanny pack for $100 - are you kidding???  Glad I only paid $5 for a subscription,  not worth it.


title: excellant publication

text: One of my most favorite magazines...


title: Several years later, Gunnar is right.

text: I mistakenly subscribed to this for two long years, instead of the intended Rock & Ice. I just received the latest issue only to see on the front cover, a great photo, but one I'd seen in Rock & Ice more than a year ago! This is the second time in the last 6 months this has happened. I've been climbing for more than 30 years and there's nothing in this magazine of interest to me. I'm going to cancel it, and I don't care if they send a refund or not. Going to Rock & Ice.


title: donna hay is excellent!

text: I enjoy this magazine profusely! It is beautifully stylized,terrific recipes and good for day dreaming too!


title: Very helpful while attending Mass

text: I follow this at Mass. I have some hearing loss so being able to read what I’m hearing is very very helpful. I love everything about it!!!


title: Can't leave a review without a product!

text: We STILL do not have the first magazine and started a year subscription months ago.


title: Not my ideal mag

text: I purchased this magazine for my husbands birthday and quite frankly he found it boring and very "high school newspaper" (ish) he was unimpressed. If you like reading articles that seem to prattle on about how "wonderful" the writers found their trip(s) and very little if any articles on fishing then by all means buy it but for us we won't be renewing or gifting this mag.


title: Great Deal!

text: You have to get this subscription! It is incredible how much you can get out of these magazines. You get at least $30 value of only $10 you paid for. I love this!! Only problem I had was the shipping. My first issue came 6 months late but they make up for the issues you lost.


title: quality has sufferd

text: magazine is  grainy


title: Recycled Articles

text: We have subscribed to this magazine for a few years and my children have enjoyed it. However, we noticed that they have recycled articles in several issues over the years. Same pictures, same story, different edition. That is lazy and deceptive. It’s a big deal breaker for us.


title: I feel like...  ...like I'm WIRED man.

text: Even the photo accompanying this request for review shows a hat with an actual magazine, don't know what the tablet (?) is for; but so far, all that's shown up in my box is the hat, and e-mail arrived with a link to go on-line for a digital copy.  Don't see any significant difference than if I just went to their site for a read...  I was expecting actual hard copies - given the state of marketing these days, I feel like, "...fooled again..."


title: Five Stars

text: I just love this magazine. The photos are excellent and there is always a freshness about it!


This was the best price I could find for renewing my subscription.  However, the TV listings are occasionally wrong.  I will continue to subscribe because I have found this to be the best resource for scheduling our DVR for taping of shows we want to watch.


title: Loving my options

text: I enjoy having one of my favorite magazines, available to me on my electronic devices. I also enjoy all of the great perks I enjoy. By reading from my phone or tablet, "extras" such as bonus clips , trivia and backstage Interviews that you wouldn't experience while reading a traditional magazine. The graphics are amazing and the pictures are awesome. Don't hesitate!


title: One Star

text: not worth the money.


title: all ads, not substance

text: bought for years, it is so skimpy in size, disappointed, done with country living


title: Good Investment Guide but severe right wing political views

text: This is a very good resource for investing but unfortunately the editorials, especially the Issue & Insights section, is written by extreme right wing radicals. They might as well have Ann Coulter or Gordon Liddy writing their columns. This part of the paper has been a huge disappointment. The majority of Americans don't view themselves with the extreme right or left side of the political process. I can't understand why this investor's resource would sell themselves to one extreme. I simply can no longer support either radical views and I don't want to spend this type of money on a paper that is so extreme. The right winged editorials compromise the value of their product. I have no idea why this would be necessary in an investor's guide.  Do yourself a favor and find an alternative investor resource guide that is far less political. There are many out there and most of them cost less or are free.

text: The magazine is for teen girls by teen girls. My daughter likes to read the letters section because she can relate to what girls are talking about. I think it helps her to realize that what ever it is she is feeling is normal.


I'd never purchase this magazine again! I was very disappointed in it and it's content!

text:
I love the science.

Great magazine looking into the wonders of our universe. I like the writing and pictures.

I hate the ads.

I get that magazine sales are down, revenue is lower so more ads. NO MORE Cigarette Ads!!!! I bought this subscription to start sharing science with my two young sons; "look kids, robots! Look kids, driverless cars!" But I can't. The number of ads for tobacco products is ridiculous! I counted 15 in the last edition.

This means I cannot leave it for my sons to look at; "look dad, this man looks really cool on an electric motorbike...smoking a Camel." Nope, aint happening.

I will not be renewing my subscription. More is the pity.

I dont get it Popular Science, you write stories about saving the planet, stopping pollution and making the world a better place but you don't care if me or my two sons, or any reader of your magazine, become addicted to these awful products?

You care more about profit than your readers.

Very, Very Disappointing. Goodbye.

title: Best Magazine For  A Handyman BUT

text:
This is a great magazine that I have enjoyed a lot but if you may get a letter from them in the middle of your subscription (that I threw away because I had six months to go) you must read it, if you dont you may end up with a book plan you didnt order. The letter has a notice you must mail back or you will enrole in a book plan. If I want a book plan I will order it myself and avoid the hasle of returning a book or books I didnt order.
I got mad and let my subscription expire, and months later I recieved a Bill from Handyman from an Marketing Manager indication I just ordered the magazine which I didnt.
Great magazine but lousy marketing which can be a pain, great magazine just be carefull.


title: Makes the perfect Stocking stuffer

text: Get this for my sister for her stocking every year at Christmas, the auto renew is great and it's the most inexpensive subscription I've found.


title: One Star

text: Save your money and go on the National Geographic site and get the same 12 months for $12.00.


title: Bought this as a gift, he loves it.

text: I have purchased this as a gift for a friend who is a big time fresh water fisherman. This is the third year in a row I have purchased it and he really enjoys it.


title: This should come with a set of boots.

text: I really enjoy my outdoor life subscription. Every issue makes me excited to get out of the house and try something new. Definitely as much or more advice and stories than product placement, which is a welcome change from most hunting and fishing periodicals. A good addition to the library of anyone who enjoys wildlife sports.


title: Family Circle Magazine

text: Over the years I have received a number of magazines.  I can safely say that this is the only one I read cover to cover. I was a little bit weary of getting a magazine subscription through Amazon, however I have nothing but positive to say about the process.  I received the first magazine even prior to stated shipping date, and have not had any issues so far.

text: It's all about Insider access and I actually like the Magazine more than most it appears from the reviews here. ESPN's large format makes their photos pop! Absolutely the best sports photography in sports IMO. It is definitely geared for a under 30 crowd but that's OK most sports are too.<br /> Insider has helped me nail two FFB drafts in a row as a winner of my money league. I am getting a 50 cent an issue 5 month subscription through Amazon with auto renewal..I found a $9 a year deal through a coupon site but I"m not confident using a credit card with most of those sites.Amazon takes care of that concern.I'll try to update at what rate they auto renew me. Looks like no one has reviewed this mag since 2007.

title: One of the Best Magazines

text: This is one of the few magazines that I read cover to cover. It always has something interesting to read.


title: Good Magazine to Read about Guns and Ammo

text: Happy with the magazine. Get to read it on a monthly basis. Got it at a good price, didn't seem to long before I got the first issue.


title: Not broken

text: Subscribed to the PS I had come to like. Now they have changed the format, not that thrilled.


title: Five Stars

text: Excellent magazine!!<br />Dr.Oz always gives good advice, I enjoy the articles...very informative.


title: A must magazine for readers who appreciate the skill of reporting and the art of writing

text: Reporters frequently flatter themselves by self-identifying as "writers" when few do the term justice; many even fail to stand-up as journalists; not so with the WEEKLY STANDARD. Here you find well-researched and superbly written articles of both interest and importance to readers who appreciate quality journalism.


title: Great Magazine

text:
Coral Magazine skips the basics and ignores the temptation to cater to a more casual crowd with every-other-issue features on tank cycling and the dangers of overfeeding.  Instead, it features less general topics with a slightly more esoteric approach while remaining accessible to common hobbyists such as myself.  Having spent innumerable hours scouring the web and nearly every forum available on marine aquaculture, I can confidently say one can find novel information and ideas in Coral Magazine that are rarely, if ever, discussed anywhere else.  (See August/September 2007 issue discussing what the author calls "induced longitudinal fission" of ricordea for a great example.)

This magazine provides incredible photographs, well written articles, and insightful commentary.  Any hobbyist who has spent more than a few hours reading through books or online forums in this subject should greatly appreciate Coral magazine.

text: Subscribed through Amazon for one year from July 2014 to July 2015. Got automatically renewed in April 2015 without notice, three months before it is supposed to renew.

text: Nice price! Gorgeous magazine!


title: Boring

text: Boring -- thin publication without many articals.


title: What's not to 👍 like?

text: Amazing how they cover expensive products and crafts AND include the affordable.  Interesting recipes and decorating ideas.  The price was right!


title: Good Relaxtion Mag

text:
This is one of those magazine that, unless you know someone who already takes it, you might miss knowing about.  I love the articles on GREAT and lesser known vacation spots, recipes & restaurants, dog stories, and, of course, guns.  Reading a recent article actually motivated me and guided me in the purchase of a new 20 gage.

This a warm, comfortable magazine that hits the spot when I need a relaxing, fun read.


title: Hasn't changed over the decades

text: You can still find interesting tidbits about mundane things.  They excel at bringing you the details without being boring.  My son, who is 16, likes to read this and so does my 11-year-old.  When kids are at an age where it can be hard to find good, educationally sound materials to have around the house that will hold their interest, this is one publication that will do it.


title: Positive, up-beat, wonderful

text: It exemplifies all the reasons everyone loved The Oprah Show.  I love the quality of the writing, photography, the weight and shine of the paper.  Then content if fabulous.  I look forward to reading this magazine every month!


title: Quick Access to New Apps and Functionality

text: It fun to read and browse and more of a novelty on the coffee table. Comparison and ratings of multiple apps in a single category is helpful.


title: Better Than Expected

text: What a pretty mag to lay on the coffee table.  And while I expected all the large glossy ads I was surprised about the quality of the content; it's surprisingly good.  We're not talking volumes of information, but just right - you're left knowing something more about Hawaii and craving more.  Each issue that arrives here at the house wanders from coffee table to my desk and maybe back again, then and eventually to work where as I hand it off to someone I sometimes ask "When is your next trip to Hawaii?".  And I have actually bought a few things from advertisers in the magazine, including [...] which is now a holiday tradition in our house.  This is also a perfect gift magazine and the whole magazine process through Amazon makes it so easy (plus and in my case I save Ship To addresses within Amazon so new orders are even faster).


title: Today and Tomorrow

text: Subject matter is mentally stimulating.  The science crosses many categories, from space to geology, high tech to natural physics. Super spectrum.


title: This does teach an 'old dog' new 'tricks'.

text: Wait for it each month! It is a compelling read of the past, the current and the potential future. Excellent variety of subject matter.


title: Wish it came more frequently

text: I am amazed at the creativity of some people!  The helpful hints always make me smile, and add to my ToDo list.


title: A must-have magazine

text: One of my favorite magazines to spend quiet time enjoying.


title: Four Stars

text: One of my favorite magazines.


title: The best news magazine you'll find

text: I don't know exactly how I came across the Economist but I was already reading well respected journalism (New York Times, New Yorker , ect.) So I came across the Economist and when it was time for renewal I actually did it for an entire year. For those who are looking at it through Amazon just go through the Publisher directly.

My wife really likes the magazine and is greatly enjoying it.  As I have gotten seriously interested in photography I am enjoying looking at the many photographs in the magazine. It is a nice compliment to our mutual enjoyment of fashion tv programs like "Project Runway".  At this time, I believe we will re-subscribe after this initial Amazon subscription runs out.

title: Horrible Magazine

text: I received my first issue Saturday.  They sent an issue from November instead of starting with January or February.  Here it is mid January.  That really annoyed me.  No articles.  Just pictures of models with clothes that no one in their right mind would wear.  I cancelled the subscription this morning because they sent me an email telling me it was time to renew.  Remember I received my first issue two days ago.  I paid for a year.  That did it for me.  I just cancelled it.  I wonder how many people without thinking renew at that point.

text: Magazine was predictable with advertisements other than that still a good read.

title: Can't beat the price.

text: We've always liked Reader's Digest for the variety and interesting short items. It arrived as promised.


title: Stunning

text: The quality of printing and content in LensWork is spectacular. There is no other publication that features such amazing photos in duo tone printing.<br />I really like that this magazine is not filled with tons of advertisements. This magazine is more like a fine art book, keeping each issue as reference and inspiration. Each issue is 96 pages.


title: Disappointing

text: I’ve only received one issue so far and its been 4 -5 months


title: Nothing special

text: Way too many ads and barely any articals that I find remotely useful or relevant to the magazine. Absolute disappointment.


title: Never recieved any mags even after complaining

text: $30 that would have produced more if I set my money on fire. I cant review the product but only the lack of service since I have empty hands and now empty pockets. 1 star actually represents a Negative 5 stars from me.


title: I love this magazine!

text: I ordered a Jane Subscription from Amazon.com and I am so happy!  It is the best magazine out there.  I get lots of magazines and most I can get through in a couple of hours.  It takes me all month to read through Jane because there are always so many interesting articles.  The humor is great.  And they tell everything "like it is."  I think the price is really reasonable too.


title: Terrible Content and Inconsistent Delivery

text: In more than 6 months I have only received 2 copies of the magazine. The content of the magazines is absolutely terrible and low quality. On top of that it is filled with advertisements which make this look like a page of some spam website clearly geared towards exploiting older people.


title: One Star

text: I never received my tote bag,magazine, or e-magazine.


title: Great magazine for kids

text: My granddaughter loves this magazine and it is time spent together learning!


title: Five Stars

text: kids love their magazine.


title: Great grandchildren gift

text: My grandchildren love this. Mom collects them in a 3 ring binder so the children can look back and share with friends.  I renew every year.


title: Where did my subscription go

text: I have only received 2 magazines from this subscription 🤬


Great magazine.  Full of insightful articles that inspire.


title: Not worth it

text: Never got the free clutch, but that's okay. The magazine is almost all ads you literally go 100 pages or more before any articles, you feel almost stupid for paying to look at a bunch of banana republic ads.


title: kind of boring

text: It's not really what I thought it was. I can't find anything interesting or different from any other magazine out there. Of course for the price is ok, but is not like  I'm not looking forward to find the magazine in my mail box every month.


title: Four Stars

text: Good magazine.


title: Great Easy Read

text: Love this magazine. It is easy to read, quick, and full of simple tips to use around the house. I found the content of this magazine to be very relevant and easily acted upon. Not like other publications that you need to be a pro to do. This is all stuff that you read and say "oh - I can do that"


title: Very pushy subscription department

text: I accepted a "free" copy of this magazine -- allegedly with no obligation -- and decided that it was too "California" and upscale for my tastes, so I didn't ask them to keep sending it.  They have been sending me "Seriously Past Due" notices ever since.  There's no on-line option for just telling them that I don't want the magazine.  I'm not particularly upset that they say they "have no choice but to discontinue sending you copies of Garden Gate," since they sent only the initial free copy anyway.


title: Five Stars

text: Love this. I've found dozens of great dishes that have all turned out delicious.


title: Great magazine. Might not be the best deal here.

text:
I really like National Geographic magazine.
However, the deal here might not be so good. 19 USD and it does not specify which edition.
On NG website print edition subscription is 15 USD, print plus electronic is 19 USD.


title: Thanks but No Thanks...

text: This magazine is just too fluffy for me.  As a prior reviewed mentioned, "it misses the mark".  I'm not in the market for over-priced toys, gadgets or fashions.  Too many ads.


title: Great magazine

text: It’s perfect to add up a home school project or real school project


title: Awaiing First Issue

text:
Like others have said, the magazine subscription was bought in May 31st and have not received one issue. When I looked at my order history it said, "First Issue Delivery Estimate: July 11, 2010 - August 08, 2010"...so I'll change this review in a few days if I have still yet to receive the magazine. As far as the product, you cant beat this price for a yr subscription w/ DVD!

EDIT: My order status is now "Shipped - Delivery Estimate: August 17, 2010". I'll give it until the end of the month before I go bat-ssshhhh--crazy.


title: Relaxation and fun for the brain

title: Issues never came in the mail...

text: No issues ever came and I can’t see who to contact about it...


title: AWESOME BOOK! My baby loves it!

text: My small hooman got her first book and her eyes lit up like a small town at Christmas!<br />She has not put it down yet! She may have read it several times over, but she loves the stories and I am excited to see her reading! Especially during this lockdown! Children can easily get bored, but when I go to check on her, she’s cuddled in her bean bag and this is one of the books she has in her hands!


title: Great publication

text: Great pictures and reviews.  My favorite magazine.  Like no other in the market.


title: Cheaters

text: Greedy and sneaky liars


title: Love this Magazine

text: Piecework Magazine combines two of my favorite things: needlework and history. They have articles on everything from the crocheted potholders found at Grandma's house to the spinners of wool living in the Andes, and everything in between. The projects included in each issue are just as the title suggests:piecework. They're usually pretty small, but not always quick to finish. They can be challenging or easy, and they really offer a huge variety of different crafts. One can even learn about lesser-known needle techniques. For that, I love this magazine even more than just the history and craft. I really look forward to this coming in the mail every two months. I only wish it were more often.


title: Beware not a great subscription for the money!

text: Takes forever to get the subscription then the magazine is so full of ads it doesn't make it really worth the money. Not at all like it was 10 years ago. They don't care abouthigh quality content, just want your subscription money!


title: Mythological Physics

text: They have dumb it down. But it is still the best magazine for people who want to keep up with all the advances in Mythological Physics.


title: Loved it

text: I love these magazines, great recipes wish they published two a month.


title: Not even close to the quality magazine it wants was

text: I subscribe to this magazine when they sent me the first trial magazine guessing 25-30 years ago. I have been a subscriber every since. The quality of the magazine is at its lowest, if I want to read about travel I'll buy a travel magazine. It was at one time a magazine for people who lived in the country or longed to live in the country. Great articles, fantastic recipes, beautiful stunning pictures, just good family stories, and fun things. Now it may have some pretty pictures but not many and it's definitely not worth the money. Wouldn't even take it now if they offered it to me free. That's how sadly disappointed I am. And I am truthful when I say I have subscribed to this magazine when they first started publishing it till now, 2021, the end for me.


title: Beautiful

text: Purchased for my mother. She absolutely loves it.


title: Loved It!

text: 5 Star Seller!  Product as described and Super Fast Shipping!  Will definitely buy from this seller again.  Highly Recommend!


title: 10 year subcriber cancelling

text: This used to be a great magazine until Bloomberg took over and it became a liberal publication focused more on social issues.  Even Obama economic advisers often write the editorial "Bloomberg's view" promoting the views of the little NYC Mayor and his political aspirations...

title: Fantastic Pricing!

text: My wife wanted to subscribe to Good Housekeeping. The price was pretty high, so I started looking around and found it on Amazon.  Fantastic price for a great magazine.  We shop Amazon fairly often, and this was anther great deal.  Thanks.


title: What? These are stories?

text: These are stories?  Seriously?  I can't follow the plot, the narration is confusing, the descriptions fall flat and short creating no images in my mind.  If you are looking for something new to read then I would suggest looking elsewhere.

text: My daughter (10yo) loves these mags. She’s always fascinated by the facts about the wildlife.


title: Great stuff

text: A must have for any diy'er.


title: Real Recipes

text: I really like this magazine.  They have real recipes and not overly fancy food that you'll never cook or eat.  The recipes have pictures and the articles are good.  If the quality remains the same I'll keep the subscription going for a long time.


title: great magazine

text: Very interesting and nice to read.

text: great for child and parent relationship, reading encouragement, and early education curiosity


title: Waited two months and 3 issues arrived at once

text: I ordered this because I wanted an actual one-year subscription.  After waiting 2 months, I got 3 issues at once, so now I really only have a 9-month subscription.  It's a joke that they can't sort this out.


title: Husband loves this mag

text: Renewed his subscription as a Christmas gift.  First issue arrived today, right on schedule. He didn't miss any issues. Easy peasy.


title: Recommend

text: Great magazine to read.  Highly recommend.


title: Quality and interesting mag

text: We've had a subscription to High Five for years.  Our kids love the activities and the content.  When we started, we (parents) read the stories to the kids.  Now, our 7 year old will read the stories and show the pictures to our 4 year old.  We look through the magazine over several mornings at the breakfast table. It provides light activity, reading, and getting ready to focus before school starts.  Worth the cost!


title: 3 months for first issue?

text: Although the magazine is great, it takes Amazon almost 3 months from the order date until the first issue is received. That is an unheard of amount of time to process any order!


title: Good magazine, but you might not be appropriate for younger readers

text:
I got the Odyssey as a child, and it helped my interest in Science. So I recently ordered the magazine for my daughter who's on the younger side of the magazine's target audience.

I liked the first issue which covered the human brain. The only thing I wasn't wild about was a photo of a person under going brain surgery. With a rather squeamish daughter, it bothered her a bit. The next issue was on Pirates. It was really good in the quality of information, writing, and the print quality. Five star issue.

The third issue I just got was on the human body. It included quite a few photos of the human body, from the Body Works art show (where they pose skinned cadavers), to forensic scientists working with investigations. Some readers might find it very interesting and be inspired to pursue a career in the medical sciences. But knowing my child, I guessed it would be very disturbing to her. So she didn't get that issue.

So I give the magazine 4/5 stars. It is great in print quality, technical writing, and writing in a manner appealing to kids. I knocked off one star because I think the editors should use more discretion in what they include for a magazine targeted at that age range.  I realize some parents will not be bothered by their children seeing photos of dead bodies in a scientific context, so if that is the case you can consider this a five-star review.


title: Five Stars

text: Excellent publication. Interesting articles and a nice size.  I love Reader's Digest more than ever.


title: Five Stars

text: Love the magazine. What is the price of my automatic renewal? That was not clear to me


title: Leftist Garbage

text: This magazine is extremely biased and more interested in indoctrinating your children with Left Wing propaganda than reporting the news.  I am canceling my subscription right away.  If you want your children to have critical thinking skills and strong values, do not purchase this magazine.


title: TIME IS TIMELESS

text: Good to have the paper version of something again. Time is timeless. Nice to have it all laid out to read and see at once


title: I look forward to every new issue!

text: I sit down and read it immediately!  The best magazine I get behind Turining Point monthly devotional and Guidepost magazine

title: Would have been 5 stars

text: My Grandaughter likes the publication, but I was never able to get it sent to her. It always came to me in another state, so I had to priority mail them to her. Nice magazine but wasn’t able to get the customer service.

text: Not written well in my opinion...


title: Good stuff!!

text: The receipes are very good and most are simple with regular ingredients.


title: Has Gone Downhill Since Changing Publishers

text: I have subscribed to this magazine since its first issue, and always loved it until Rachael decided to leave Reader's Digest publishing company several months ago and go with Meredith, which publishes "Better Homes and Gardens" and "Family Circle".  Articles I read online said that her magazine was losing money for Reader's Digest as advertising revenue fell, and Rachael demanded more of the profits, so Rachael went looking for a new company.  Unfortunately, the changeover has not been a positive one for the content of the magazine, and I'm not sure that it's going to do well over there either.  The magazine is now more ads than anything else and finding the content in it is too much work and unsatisfying even when when you find it.  Every month it looks less and less like the magazine I once knew.  It is also smaller and the pages are made of cheaper paper.  The entire editorial staff is different (gone is Sylvia Nardone, her long time editor) and the character of the magazine has lost pretty much all of its former charm and appeal as far as I can see.  If you want to recapture at least some that charm, look to Food Network magazine.  I'm pretty sure FN's mag. has stolen away some of Rachael's former subscribers and if her magazine continues to slide down into supermarket rag-dom, I too will be amongst them.


title: A Review from someone who's actually read the magazine, and since the redesign, too

text:
Cooking Light used to be one of my favorite magazines because it had genuinely light recipes that were both healthful and tasty.  Over the years the recipes somehow got more and more fattening and the articles more boring, but I still always found recipes I liked in every issue.  I never liked the "lifestyle" articles as they took up the entire first half of the magazine and were a complete bore, in my opinion.  But still, it was one of my favorite magazines.

I had let my subscription lapse for several months when I got an invitation from Amazon for a $5.00 rate for one year.  It was too good to pass up so I went for it.  Well, when I got my first issue it became immediately apparent to me that this was not the same magazine that I had known and loved for so long.  I then learned that the entire editorial staff was fired last year and a new one put in its place.  That, plus the entire format of the magazine had been completely overhauled.

Don't get me wrong - Some of the changes are positive and I think CL can theoretically benefit from some sort of redesign.  I like the new color photo with each recipe, plus the type fonts and layout are in general more up to date and pleasant to look at.  In addition, the "lifestyle and fitness" section that ate up the entire first half of the magazine is gone and the recipes are more spread out amongst more concise, "bullet point" style one page articles.  That to me is both good and bad - The layout is better and the boring stuff is gone from the first half of the magazine, but the information in the new "sound byte" articles is not really that interesting nor informative and at times even the longer articles are just ho-hum.  Plus, gone are the letters to the editor and some of the reader input articles that were a part of the old format.

On top of that, the recipes themselves show no sign of getting any lighter.  In fact they seem to be getting heavier and heavier - That is, more calories and fat in every serving than ever before.  And the types of recipes are heavily weighted towards comfort foods, the kinds of which are impossible to get down to anything below 20 grams of fat per serving.  20 grams of fat per serving, people!!!  Is this light cooking?  I don't think so!  At least if you're going to make a magazine about light cooking, give people what you say you're giving them.  I can find 20 gram of fat recipes in any cooking magazine.  Why do I need this one?  I'm not asking for ridiculously low counts, but something hovering about 10 grams of fat would be fine.  What made Cooking Light a great magazine is that it was different from all the rest.  Now it is just more of the same.  Ho hum, I can get that anywhere.

The irony of it is that the other day I found the November issue of CL in my doctor's office.  Inside was a "sound byte" article encouraging us to "make peace with those few extra pounds".  I guess this is some sort of propaganda to justify the higher fat and calorie counts in their supposedly "light" recipes.  And the truly ironic part is that if I make those recipes I surely WILL have to make peace with a few extra pounds, LOL!

By the way, what's up with people rating the magazine without even having read it yet?  I don't get that.  If you haven't read it yet, you can't critique it.  And by the way, Amazon was very clear that it could take up to 10 weeks or so to receive your first issue.  Duh, that is only par for the course with magazines in general in my experience.

Wired is one of my favorite publications. Only reservation, they seem to be doing more and more promotional tie-ins - as per Interstellar.


title: Very good and very helpful

text: Yep. Very good and very helpful.

title: Know your way around the tube

text: Everyone needs a TV guide , this one is great up to date and easy to read. Great stories and good gossip.


title: Basically theft

text: Bought the non renewing subscription when it was on sale, spoiler alert it renewed. And when I called to cancel it (still not totally upset) I was informed that I couldn't cancel until the last order shipped, after which point it instantly renewed again. Also several of my copies have come in damaged.


title: great product

text: Subscription was a gift for my mother. She loves it. Was very glad I could get this for her. Will continue to renew the subscription.


title: a personal favorite

text: Highly informative.  Excellent research for major purchases.


title: Gift each child their own

text: My grandson loves having his own copy and not having to share the activity part with his sister. They are both so excited to get mail.


title: Like an old friend

text: Reader's Digest has the most heart-warming stories and anecdotes.  Humor in Uniform gives one a glimpse into, not only the armed forces, but about the machinations of individual soldiers and sailors, especially recruits.  When each issue arrives, I immediately read it, knowing that I will be entertained on many levels. I just renewed my subscription.


title: Nice pictures to look at

text: Nice pictures to look at, and amazing recipes! If you like the magazine you should check out their YouTube channel, very interesting stuff there.


title: Five Stars

text: Great magazine! It has good information, and great recipes!


title: Subscription includes old out of date issues and is not current as advertised

text: The first installment of my subscription included 2 back-dates old issues. The product description is for a recurring annual subscription of monthly current issues. The fact that the subscription includes non-current issues is means that the product is defective. Similar to what other reviewers have said, I don’t want 3 issues (or 25% of my subscription) to come on the same day and for them to include old non-current and out of date issues. That’s not what I paid for, not what’s listed in the product page, nor what I expect. And to be clear, this is not a shipping issue. I’m trying hard to phrase my review to be clear that this is a defective product and not a shipping issue so my post doesn’t get removed again. This is a defective product. My suspicion is that many others have left similar feedback but it’s not reflected in the reviews for this reason.

Now I look forward to receiving it every month & have gotten turned on to items I never even knew existed like MBT shoes, & shape-up shoes.  It's a fun magazine.


title: Favorite Magazine

text: This is my favorite magazine.  It leads you to all sorts of weekend adventures or long vacations close enough to drive to.


title: Sorry, no thank you to Vogue

text: I wish I could cancel this magazine. I think it has too many advertisements and the contents are not my style since I am a very senior woman now. I liked Vogue when I was much younger.

title: Sloooow Delivery

title: All You Magazine

text: This is a great magazine but considering that I placed this order in September, I'm a bit bummed that I have yet to receive my first issue.  Definitely subscribe to this mag if you are the crafty type but go the route of subscribing through the magazine itself.  It just takes too long via Amazon for this item.  So, five stars for the magazine itself but 2 starts for time it takes to get first issue.


title: Great magazine and a great state

text: but anyone who says something like "Idaho holds the torch high when it comes to the themes of cultural diversity ..." really, really needs to get out more.


title: If she is happy then so am I

text: My lady is a gorgeous latina and she loves the magazine.  If she is happy then so am I !


title: Indispensible

text: I've always found the New Yorker to be the indispensable magazine. The writing is so good, that I find myself reading, and learning from, articles on subjects that previously held little interest for me.


title: Five Stars

text: This magazine keeps me centered to what is really important in life.


title: The New Yorker is a great magazine, but Amazon's auto renewal is deceptive

text: Amazon's auto-renewal price is $50-100 more than the price directly from the publisher.  Ordering through Amazon allows one to read the magazine on the kindle but really egregious pricing from Amazon.  Also, I thought I had originally turned off auto-renewal, yet somehow it was turned back on...


title: Hard to find in stores.

text: Husband loves this magazine and it is nearly impossible now a days to find in the stores.


title: Great deal

text: Price was very good and the subscription started arriving faster than any other subscription I've had.


title: Subscribing to magazines just got easier.

text: I subscribed to Time and The Nation for less than I could find on-line or with the blown-in cards.


title: It's Time!

text: I'm really enjoying Time.  Long ago I was a regular Newsweek subscriber, but I think I like Time better.  It has lots of little tidbit type items, but also substantial long form reporting.


title: Love this magazine!

text: Ree Drummond is the most down-to-earth person.  I loved all the interesting articles in her new magazine and I especially love her recipes!


title: Love this magazine!

text: I have always enjoyed reading National Geographic. The articles are fascinating and the pictures beautiful. Even better, I enjoy giving these National Geographic magazines new life as CitraSolv prints to use in my artwork when I'm done reading them . Bonus!


title: BEWARE of the content

text: Yikes! Obscene issue March 15. I ordered this magazine for my son, thinking it was about technology. So far, it has been. This months issue, thank God I opened it before he got it, was FILLED with PORNOGRAPHY, like not just suggestion, but two men naked together with full frontal nudity, women in groups looking at nude magazines of other women, and more... The articles were as bad or worse. The guise was about how technology relates to sexuality, but it is tasteless and shocking to one expecting a monthly magazine on tech related news.


title: Reader's Digest is the Best!

text: I love Readers Digest! It is a classic! You can never go wrong!


title: Not really country

text: I can't remember why I originally subscribed to this magazine, because normally the word "country" would have put me off--it brings to mind those ducks in scarves.  I'm really glad I did, though, because I think it's probably the best of the household magazines.  All of them tend to be repetitive because, after all, how much more can you say about this subject after a couple of years?  This magazine seems to continue with a freshness that the others don't have, especially in the decorating pages.  There is more attention paid to lower budgets but at the same time an interest in art and artistic detail in home decorating. In addition, even the recipes are a little different. I really like Country Living and look forward to getting the new issues every month even though some of them are not what I had hoped.  But that's true of all of the household magazines, some more than others, especially around the holidays.  This one is at the top of the category and I only give it four stars because I wish it would put some of the creativity into the holiday issues.


Ordered this magazine for my 5 and 7 year olds. They love looking at the pictures and reading about the animals. Some of the text is a little hard for the 7 year old but that doesn't stop my kids from sitting together and enjoying the magazine together each month without arguing. It's something they look forward to getting each month.


title: Ladies' Home Journal

text: I received Ladies' Home Journal magazine in the mail shortly after ordering it which was a pleasant surprise.  The magazine has nice articles, helpful hints to save money (always helpful in a time like this), and a great collection of quick and easy dinners (short and to the point with basic ingredients).  All in all, very pleased for a simple, light read with helpful hints for everyday life.

text: WIRED is a great read. They do tend to be fanboys of the latest gadget or latest startup but the good far outweighs the blah.


title: crash and burn

text: Cancelled my (long time) subscription. Not sure why they feel the need to mix political cuck opinion (Zach Bowman) into a car magazine.


title: Price Too High

text: This price is $4.00 more than ordering from Reader’s Digest directly.


title: Think I liked earlier better

text: Have had magazine for years. Think I liked earlier better. More substance. Too many ads, pets and makeup


title: Fun and interesting

text: Very fun and interesting.  Gives me new ideas for meals. Love a good old fashioned magazine I can tear out and mark on and share with my sister.


title: This Magazine is a joke.

text: JJ Watt raised 37 MILLION dollars for Hurricane victims this year.  Colin Kaepernick did nothing; yet this magazine has awarded him Citizen of the Year?  This Magazine is a joke.

title: What happened to my favorite magazine?

text:
I subscribed to Cooking Light for almost ten years, and thought the magazine was fantastic.  I loved that the recipes were healthy and delicious at the same time, and I would try at least two or three dishes from every issue.  Every single recipe I tried turned out great.  I even bought gift subscriptions for friends and family.

Then everything changed.  Cooking Light became far more of a lifestyle magazine and far less of a cooking magazine.  I tolerated this up to a point, until I realized there were fewer recipes that appealed to me in each issue, and the ones I did make were disappointing at best.  The complete design overhaul was the last straw - half the time, I can't tell the recipes from the ads anymore!

When my subscription ran out a couple of months ago, I didn't even consider renewing it.  If Cooking Light ever returns to what it used to be, I'll be among the first to sign up.  Until then, I'll spend my money on magazines that actually focus on food.


title: The Best Cooking Magazine!!

text: If you're a food network junkie like me, this is the magazine for you.  The recipes are great and a lot of variety from many of the network's personalities. I can't say enough good things about it!


title: Five Stars

text: Classic


title: Nothing but advertising

text: Filled with ads and the topics for their few articles are biased.


title: not interesting

text: Not the same


title: Subscribed and cancelled (a little advanced for my kids) - overall good customer service

text: I bought the year subscription for $30. They shipped me the first 2 issues together (out of the yearly 10 issues). The magazine is quite nice and full of interesting material, but it's a little advanced for my kid (2 yo). I was worried I am stuck with the subscription, but after they cancelled my order they refunded me $21. I think that's fair. I just wanted to leave this review to let people know that they can cancel their subscriptions and get some of their money back if this is not a good fit for them.


title: Two Thumbs Up!

text: I love receiving RD every month- excellent stories, and they have cut way down on advertisements. Two thumbs up!

text: Can't go wrong with Cycle World.  If you are a motorcycling enthusiast, this is the magazine for you.


title: Five Stars

text: Great magazine, lots of neat recipes and helpful ideas. Thanks.


title: better than People

text:
I read both People and Entertainment Weekly (EW) magazines, and I prefer EW when it comes to entertainment news. The reviews are helpful and the articles are presented in a more interesting way. It focuses on content more than just fetishizing celebrities, and it does this without being dry, for industry insiders only, or overly technical.
In contrast, "People" includes more human interest stories, like profiles of heroes among us, and includes puzzles. That's the only thing I would change about EW - add puzzles!
Both magazines include a tablet version for free with your subscription, available for ipad and android. Many times the articles are expanded online and there are additional images.
This magazine is definitely worth the money. I plan on staying a subscriber (as long as it holds onto its integrity).

title: Did my subscription start with the Dec. issue?  Because that is the first issue that I received?

text: The magazine is great..I am just concerned because I found my copy in the neighbors mailbox while we were visiting one morning.  I am afraid that i missed one of the issues.  Also, I saw a country living that was a monthly issue.  Are there two types of Country living?

text: Had to contact Customer Service @ Vanity Fair as the magazine suddenly stopped coming, a few months short of my subscription's end.  So pay attention to which issue you get to start and which one ends the 6 month trial!


title: I'm too old and too honest for this

text:
I try to stay active and fit, and once every few issues there might be something that pertains to me, but mostly this is for the 20 something gang.

Also, I really think you have to be an extreme narcissist to enjoy many of the articles.  So much is said about how to be the very, very, very best athlete/sex god/grill master, etc.  But I know I'm never going to be the very, very, very, best.

All I want is some good general fitness information, and I'm not finding enough of that in here.

Update August 2013:  And what's up with the misleading come-ons on the cover???  Almost every issue has one or two teasers on the cover that have no corresponding articles inside!!!


title: I Really Wanted to Build the Stealth

text:
I'm a bit disappointed in the magazine. I ordered it from the full front page picture of a Stealth Jet Plane and I thought it contained the detailed plans for building this plane.

Imagine my frown when I opened the magazine only to find a bunch of ads and some small articles on home and car repair.

If I wanted to fix something in my home I'd hire a contractor. If I need to repair my car I take it to a mechanic.

I want PM to send me those plans. . .

Actually PM is a great mag. I like it a bit better than PS, but both are good. Always look forward to getting the latest issue.

I also enjoy the Jay Leno Garage column. He appreciates vehicles of yore and so do I. And, while talking about cars the Auto Intel section usually deals with test drives and car tech information. Always a good read.


title: Nothing cutting edge at all and no useful information.

text:
I almost subscribed but then I remembered that I had subscribed a few years ago and the treatment was so conventional and superficial that it was practically useless. A lot of revolutionary stuff is going on in the farming and ranching world right now and this magazine is oblivious to all of that.

But if you are a city person with nothing but fantasies in your head about what farming is, or was, you'll like the pretty, idealized pictures. There's nothing new here at all. But you know, maybe it has changed over the years. I doubt it but you could always try it and see if it is still 1/32" deep or not. Some good content may have inadvertently snuck in. But I won't. Burn me once, etc.

text: [[ASIN:B001THPA4O Marie Claire (1-year auto-renewal)]] This is my favorite fashion magazine.  I enjoy the fashions but the big draw for me is their association with Project Runway; of which I am a BIG fan.  I enjoy seeing Joanna Coles when she is on television plus the articles by Nina Garcia and Tim Gunn.  The big bonus is the articles about the Project Runway shows; the participants, models and of course the winners.

I don't know what "magic button" I clicked, but I have since been inundated by online and mailed advertisements. I probably get 3+ items in my inbox daily from them. Today an actual magazine arrived along with the request that I pay my subscription promptly. I am certain that I did not agree to subscribe to anything. I am so sorry that I looked to their website for help with a recipe. I hope to untangle myself from their aggressive marketing as soon as possible. Message to others, beware!

title: Fast shipping!

text: When I ordered the magazine it said it would take about 4-6 weeks to arrive, but came much sooner then that.


title: Enjoying my subscription to Popular Science

text:
I decided to subscribe to this magazine on a whim. And it is nice.

A few things could make it better such as mailing it in plastic or an envelope. My first two issues have arrived with torn front pages.

The other is a common complaint for all magazines. Less material and more ads.

Overall though, this is a nice magazine and well worth it. I would subscribe to Popular Science again.


title: Info, Info, Info.

text: this mag is great lots of tips and tricks along with photos. Lots of different views on how to hunt and what to hunt with as well.


title: Guns & Ammo

text: When I ordered this I wasn't thinking that 90% of items new to the market were "tactical"<br />That  being said, they do dissect and wring out the things they review


title: Not much to it

text: Thought there would be more content. Mostly advertising. Also watch out for the auto renewal, and other 'benefits' that they are kind enough to covertly enroll you in without asking and charge you for such as their 'Inner Circle'. Very deceptive practices.


title: Great for those who travel

text: This was a gift and my son and his wife love the magazine.


title: Fun, quality magazine

text: Great use of humor and thoughtful articles.


title: Great magazine for kids

text: This is a quality magazine for kids.

text: Birthday gift for my three year old grandkid. They love it!


title: Excellent magazine.

text: Entertaining and informative magazine.  However, although I purchased as a renewal, it was entered as a new subscription and I had to call the publisher to put the two subscriptions together.


title: OK for a true beginner in Yoga

text: Being an avid  partaker in Yoga , I figured this magazine would have more healthy recipies,and self help information in it. Instead I just found alot of yoga stances (which are demonstrated very well, I may add) which I already know by partaking in the classes which I frequent.  It would be very beneficial for a beginner in Yoga though.  It also has alot of advertisements for yoga seminars, which unless you'really wealthy wouldn't be able to partake in anyway.  I have only had 2 issues so far, but probally will not renew when subscription is done.


title: Excellent Magazine for DC area people.

text: Fantastic magazine for those who live in the DC metro area.  I had more time for reading on my hands so I ordered a number of magazines: GQ, Vanity Fair, Reader's Digest, In-Style.  I found the articles very relevant and informative and the writing good. On the contrary I've been very unhappy with Vanity Fair.


title: Not what it was when it was a new magazine. Bring back the edginess!!

text: I loved Wired when I was younger. It seems like the stories back in the early 2000's had a bit more bite, or edginess to them. I'm giving them one more issue to change my mind and convince me it's worth it to have the subscription.


title: It is great for even very young babies.

text: I gave this as a gift to my niece's first baby. He is now almost 4 months old. My sister-in- law ( his gtandmother) sent a photo of him "reading" his "Hello" magazine and she said, "Hr loved his "Hello." He likes the 4-page "Find It Fun" & "A Very Chirpy Hello." He reaches to hold pages and they're well made and drool-proof. "

title: The Best English-Language Poetry Magazine in the World.

text: Poetry magazine out of Chicago has been around since stew was invented.  (When mankind first crawled up out of the swamp and discovered fire, what they had for dinner that night was stew).  Well, ok, they're 75 years old and counting.  You don't hang around that long unless you're the best.  I first discovered them in a college library - many, many years worth of copies - it was a treasure trove of the 1st magnitude.  There's invariably one or more poems (if not the majority)in each issue that'll make you glad you subscribed.  No, they're not big on pictures (none but the cover - and I remember one year when it was a drawing that didn't change for the whole year...urg) - but it IS the best Poetry Magazine you will ever find.


title: Lucky To Find Lucky!

text: I really love this magazine because it not only shows great new products, it also reminds you of old faves.  Lucky keeps you up on the trends but also gives you tips for the classics. I've gotten this subscription for my shoppin' loving girlfriends. Makes a great, "indulgent" gift that keeps giving all year long.

text: I ordered digital magazine for my IPad and like it very much.  Pleasant surprise to get hard copy (within couple weeks) in the mail AND a beautiful summer infinity scarf in a pretty aqua color.  Nice!  Thank you.


title: don't bother

text: My family relied on CR for generations.  I never got it because I don't buy very much stuff.  But I recently subscribed, and what a disappointment!  They still seem to have pretty good information in their (now very thin) magazine, but so far, I haven't been able to use the website. After a representative told me that I couldn't see most of the ratings online with my cheap subscription, I tried to find something I was supposed to be eligible to see, and still couldn't see it!  I also never got the auto buying guide that I was supposed to get. Even if you pay the extra money, the website is very confusing and difficult to search.  So...don't count on seeing anything except what's in the print version you will get with your subscription.  I'm sorry to say there really isn't much use for CR any more, with all the other online sources that now provide most of the same information for free.  I did write and suggest to CR that they have some kind of fee-per-use (like, if I planned to buy an appliance, I might pay a small fee just to see the related articles and ratings); however, this would not work without a much better search function.  Anyway, bottom line: I have never been able to see anything useful online.  Too bad: CR used to be so good.
