Booking Through Thursday:


This week Booking Through Thursday wants to know: "Even I read things other than books from time to time....like, Magazines! What magazines/journals do you read?"

I have had a subscription to the London Review of Books for quite some time and was a faithful reader. But I just let my subscription lapse so I won't be reading it this year. I still have a Smithsonian subscription and read that. And any time there's a New Yorker available I'll read that too. But, really, I'm not much of a magazine reader. If I want something shorter, then I'll go for short stories or poetry.

  1. I don't read a lot of magazines either.

  3. My guilty pleasure each week is Entertainment Weekly and US Weekly. Last year, we used a lot of unused air miles to get free magazines and were inundated with all these magazines that we could not keep up with for 6 months. To be honest, we only really read them in the bathroom ... to help "pass the time."

  4. Oh my gosh, I used to be SUCH a magazine reader. At one time I remember receiving as many as ten different magazines every month. Although several of them were art work related.

    I used to receive the old version of Victoria Magazine for years and years.

    Now I just receive Country Living and occasionally when I remember to renew, The New Yorker and Vanity Fair. I do like to read decorating magazines and every once in awhile I also read Vogue and Elle.

  5. I've always loved magazines. Don't have as much time to read them these days. And those New Yorkers do stack up alarmingly!

Sorry folks, but I have been getting an incredible amount of spam. I have adjusted my settings and all messages will be moderated from now on. If that does not take care of the problem then I will have to go to the "Prove You're Not a Robot" thing--which I hate as much as you do.

If your name does not appear automatically, please tell me your name in the comment. Otherwise you will just show up as "Unknown." Thanks!
