Bring a Magazine

I have often been told that the road to enlightenment is long, so it would be best to bring snacks and a magazine. Like many of you I try to have reading material with me at all times. Sometimes a magazine is just more practical to carry with you. Especially if you have that eternally huge stack of magazines that you are trying to get through. Yes, I admit it. I love magazines. There are just so many out there. There are journals for every topic under the sun. I have enjoyed quite a variety of different periodicals in my time, and I always love finding a new one to enjoy.

My current favorites are:

What magazines do you read regularly? Do you have a favorite that you would like to recommend? Please comment and tell me about it.

Do You Like Reading About Books?

I was hanging out in the magazine section at Borders the other day when I ran across a magazine called bookmarks: For Everyone Who Hasn’t Read Everything. Published bimonthly, this magazine is full of book reviews, book-related news, coming attractions, booklists, and interviews. Just flipping through it in the store I encountered a review of I’m Proud of You: My Friendship With Fred Rogers by Tim Madigan that I need to read now. They gave it four stars. I also enjoyed their Year in Books flashback to 2001. Did you remember that Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J. K. Rowling won the Hugo Award that year? I didn’t. What can I say? I had to buy it. Check it out if you ever get the chance. It may give you some ideas about what to read next.
