I don't really read any magazines. I occasionally start collecting ones with free models and things but I never complete them. I have a half built orrery from last years space magazine thingy they released, but then I ran out of money. Twas actually a good magazine.

 

Other than that, I read my mother's gossipy ones sometimes, but they're sad reminders of how superficial the world is.

 

Best magazine I have is an issue of Scientific American, a special edition all about 'time'. Its great.

Blimey, that must have been a complicated model to build. I had an orrery made for my husband as a wedding present, and it's so complicated I couldn't imagine even trying to start putting it together.

My gran gives me all of her trashy magazines. I love reading things like Woman and Woman's Own, as well as Take A Break and Chat. The stories in them make me laugh.

Just renewed my 2600 hacker quarterly subscription for 2 years and am strongly considering re-subscribing to National Geographic.

I only read one, which is a professional magazine: "The Chemical Engineer". I'm always disapointed with mags when I buy them and wish I'd bought a book instead!

I like magazines that touch on beauty, cooking/food and home decorating such as:

 

Beauty: Self, Shape, Allure, Lucky, Glamour (UK), etc

 

Cooking/Food: BBC Australian GoodFood (previously known as Australian Table), BBC GoodFood, Delicious (New Zealand), Taste (New Zealand), healthy food (Australia), etc

 

Home decorating: Ideal Home (UK version) and believe it or not... IKEA catalogue!

Generally I find mags soooo expensive so I don't bother. Because I am a therapist though, I subscribe to a trade one called Today's Therapist which is very informative. I also get the International Therapist which comes with my membership to Federation of Holistic Therapists.

 

Like peeps above, I can't abide the celeb gossip or soaps mags.

oooh my little guilty pleasures include any kind of celeb-related magazine (People, US Weekly, etc). i even regularly visit eonline.com and ew.com .. I just can't help myself! I also like O (Oprah's magazine) and Real Simple (the organizational magazine).

Agreed, I'd rather buy a new book than a mag :lol:

 

Me too! ... and with the price of some of them these days, the cost of two magazines could get you a paperback, not to mention three out of a charity shop! :lol:
