Arthritis Today (1-year auto-renewal)
Been reading it 10+ years--like the $5 discount.
Have trouble getting the magazines--they've missed 3 months this year alone.I had been getting this magazine through the Arthritis Foundation but found it to be cheaper on amazon, especially this month with the extra $5.00 off! I am very grateful for this, as it is a good & helpful magazine but kind of expensive. However, the information contained in it is helpful for many different Arthritic conditions, including Fibromyalgia which I have in addition to some Arthritis.
I appreciate the basically upbeat & positive viewpoint of this magazine. It always provides a lift when it comes in the mail. The overall tone of the articles & information is informative & generally helpful, with features about recent research. I found one article that almost exactly replicated some medication information that my doctor had just told me. It was good to see that information in this publication & I brought it to show my doctor who seemed impressed with its accuracy. I would definitely recommend this magazine for anyone with most arthritic conditions. It makes life feel more "possible" when you feel down from pain.

I expected more content from this magazine. There are so many medication advertisements in every issue.I am so frustrated with all the ads that I will not be renewing my subscription.

Before Amazon had added magazine subscriptions, I was a loyal subscriber to Arthritis Today because it is well written, up-to-date, and a most informative aid to those of us with arthritis and related diseases.Since I am a loyal and frequent buyer from Amazon.com, I was very happy to renew my Arthritis Today subscription in addition to purchasing other products.Every issue i get the first thing i do is sit down and tear out all the drug/pharmaceutical ads, and there are a lot of them. By the time i am done removing the ads there is almost nothing left of the magazine; very few articles in comparison to ads. And it is also true that their primary focus is RA, although they do mention Fibromyalgia and other rheumatic diseases in passing. I can't say i have really benefited much from having the magazine around.

Curve Magazine
Read Best Reviews of Curve Magazine Here
Yes, like every other dyke in America I watch The L Word. But too much of the content of the magazine is about the show and it's actors: straight and lesbian. Give us a break, there are too many smart,strong,talented lesbians that would be of interest to focus on one TV series.I recently emailed Curve to try to get a subscription. I have a gender-neutral name, and the editors assumed I was a man. Well, I am not. They told me that I was probably looking for a different magazine, because they are a lesbian magazine. They gave me the number for 'American Curve' magazine instead. I am really offended. Even if I had been a man, why should men (fathers, male relatives, and friends of gay women) be excluded from subscribing? I hate when some lesbians act out this stereotype of man-haters. My wife and I have plenty of male friends, and those friends would probably pick up an issue of Curve and flip through it just to see what's going on with "our people".This really hurt my feelings.

Art & Antiques
There are articles on current events such as the many art fairs around the world, reviews of art books, and notes on concepts being discussed at this time in the art world. The ads are well constructed and vary from decorative arts resources to contemporary galleries to auction houses. The color reproduction throughout is excellent and the quality of paper is far better than the magazine's competitors. This is a magazine worth investigating as a subscription. Grady Harp, September 11This great magazine blends articles about antiques and fine art and craft in a way that is accessable to collector and novice alike.The layout is clean and well designed with insightfull but not stuffy text.I look forward to receiving this magazine. The grade of the paper and the quality of the photos and print is of collectible quality. The articles are very educated and informative. I also enjoy the ads and the auction listings, etc.

New York Times Book Review
That said, most reviews seem to be thorough, fair and educational in themselves, although occasionally you will note that a reviewer may have a significant, important bias concerning the author s/he is reviewing. Some times this isn't revealed and leads to weeks of debate in the letters column.
In recent years more attention has been paid to so-called children's literature, which is helpful. The fiction best-seller lists are almost meaningless anymore, as they are crammed with thrillers and romances almost of the drug-store variety, but the non-fiction best-seller lists can be a way to find something new.
There are few specialty columns (or any columns at all, come to think of it), but the venerable Marilyn Stasio has done an excellent job of covering the huge mystery field and keeping readers up to date on their old favorites as well as promising newcomers.
The Times' book world tends to be occupied by authors who have already passed an invisible acid test of acceptability. You'll have to seek out truly new voices in less traditional publications. That said, the Times Book Review keeps you up-to-date on all of the important books and provides additional sustenance for the average, well-educated reader of somewhat broad tastes.I purchased this subscription as a gift for my wife. Unfortunately, Magazine Express could not start the subscription for almost eight weeks. I put up with this indignity because the price seemed reasonable. My wife loves the Review and reads every word.
It would be nice if the delivery was consistent. Magazine Express really is a mediocre company. Some weeks we don't receive the week's review and then the next week we get two different editions. This not what I signed up for. Please, one review per week delivered on or about the same day of each week would be nice.

I have been reading the NY Times Book Review for many many years. There rarely is a week when there is not some review of considerable interest to me. Though I oppose its political bias which is left liberal, I appreciate the solidity, and respectful way in which most reviews are written. There is a sense that for the Times books and culture in general have meaning and importance.The 'Times ' tends to bet for its main articles on proven winners. A review in the Times can make a person's name, and many many are the writers whose books have arrived in the 'Times' offices never to be given a real look at.
The 'Times ' articles and reviews are not the longest and the deepest but they do often provide pleasant reads, and arouse real interest in the book in question.
The NY Times Book Review is still of first importance because the NY Times is .
I still try to skim through every week searching for the review or two that I really have to try to chew and digest.This is a lame excuse not to actually go out and Purchase new books. I grew up with Cliff's Notes. This would be a logical extension.for anybody who can't handle the whole Sunday New York Times, this section is very welcome. Also: it arrives in the mail a few days before the Sunday Times.
