Magazines

My current magazine repertoire (yeah, I'm bustin out the high school French): People , US Weekly (not sure how much longer I'll take this one), InStyle, and NASCAR Illustrated.

In addition here are some I used to subscribe:
Interview http://www.interviewmagazine.com/: hey it was only $8 for 12 issues, but I didn't care for it. I would give them to Jason, my b-i-l, when I went to visit.

NASCAR Scene: Like Patti said seems like last year the weekly arrivals were getting later and later so by the time you got some of them the news was already old.

Vanity Fair:Why does it seem like when I don't take it, they have a cool cover/story?

More http://www.more.com/: Magazine for women 40+.

Texas Monthly: http://www.texasmonthly.com/


Luckily my family are readers on both side, and I have that gene marker, too. Books are great, but I enjoy the light reading of magazines as well.

When I give magazine subscriptions as gifts I'll go buy an issue, and send/give it to the person with a note stating they just got a gift subscription.

**** FOR KIDS ****
Sophia, my niece, requested some magazine subscriptions for her birthday this year because she knows I like to get them for her.
