Thank you. I never miss a chat if I can help it.

A1 I use magazines like School Library Journal & Booklist & People to choose books
-
Hi, everyone! I'm Jennifer, and currently reading Dumplin' by Julie Murphy.
-
A1: Magazines are a special treat for me. I don't buy them often but when I do I read them cover to cover! https://t.co/mG8wVzDTXl
-
I read several magazines each month and I always read the Sunday paper. Local daily papers do not have much to offer.
-
A1 This year I did a project to get more classroom mags like Time for Kids & Storyworks
-
-
I find lots of my TBR titles in the Sunday paper in every magazine seems to have a section highlighting at least 3 or more books.
-
A1: Part of my Friday ritual is to come home after school & read my People magazine.. until I fall asleep. Rarely finish
-
I'm laughing right now BJ because your answer is so amazing - I read fluff magazines LOL!!!
-
A1: My guilty reading pleasure is Entertainment Weekly
-

Sometimes when I fall behind I spend a rainy day just catching up on magazine reading.
-
Hi! Yesterday read Gracefully Grayson! Timely! Innovator's Mindset on my desk at school partially read https://t.co/vFtkOxtaQV

What genre is that Jennifer?
-
A1: My family has always been newspaper readers; at times, read 3 a day. But they do pile up.... Read some online,
-
A1: I have a huge stack of mags waiting for me to read this summer; I save them up because I don't seem to get to them.
-
A1: I feel like magazines are the ULTIMATE indulgence. Mostly, I will get mags like Cottage Life and Real Simple: mani/pedi reads!
-
I can't keep up weekly so I buy when there's a juicy story or profile on the cover.
-
I always start on the back page of People and then go back to the front. That's not weird, right? Right??
-
I love reading Top 10 book lists that I find in the newspaper. Sometimes get good ideas!
-
-
Dumplin' is YA but good crossover for adults too
-
When I need to decompress and just relax, cooking magazines, homemaking mags help!
-
Hi Susie! That's a great ritual. I love buying magazines-like to have something real in my hands!
