I remember Tiger Beat and then Seventeen Magazine from my teen years.

There really is something indulgent about a glossy magazine. Going on vacation with an armful of magazines is the height of luxury to me. If I am making a care package for someone, I want to include magazines. While I do not miss physical books vs ebooks, I do think that the feel of the pages of a magazine as you flip through is something I miss.

Thanks for another post!

One more thing we share -- a magazine addiction! My favorite way to spend Friday nights when I was in highschool (okay...kind of an introvert here) was in the bathtub reading a magazine -- Seventeen or my mom's Good Housekeeping or Better Homes and Gardens. As an adult I subscribed to Sphere, Real Simple, Sunset...they all felt so indulgent to read. I love the idea of turning back to magazines for content rather than endlessly scrolling through my phone.
