I bought this book when it's author, Peggy O'Mara, was speaking about it at my local Natural Foods Co-Op, so I have a signed copy--ha!  If you're a fan of her magazine, Mothering, you'll love this book.

I loved this so much. Being their biggest fan, I had to have this! I watch it about once a week and it makes me laugh and smile every time. The concert is great, too! It's a must-have for any MB20 fan.

My absolute favorite magazine!  Like many busy moms, I don't have much time to read magazines but I read this cover to cover.  It's an interesting and helpful tool. I can't wait to get my new subscription each month. I soak in the tub and read it. I learn ways for improving my health and well-being - both in body and mind - every single month. It's my gift to me.

I began buying this back in the summer EVERY Friday when it came out, mostly because I was buying US and People and for way too much $$...this is $1.99 on the newstand and it's great!  The stories are to the point, good and factual.  Even my mother who isn't very much into these types of magazines started buying it.  It's sort of being a bit nosey and keeping yourself up on the celebrity scene.  I literally read this cover to cover and keep it by my bed.  I can usually read enough stories before falling asleep...they don't go on and on and on.  I'm subscribing!

I've been a subscriber to the Smithsonian Magazine since college days...1960's. Have always loved the institution and the mag. I was able...during my Army service to visit the museum regularly. I was stationed at Ft. Belvoir during that time. I've become a contributor in recent years and expect to continue while I also continue to look forward to receiving the mag every month.  When I've done reading the mag issues I collect them and pass them on to a local senior rehab center in my home town of Long Beach, NY. Keep alive the good principles on which James Smithson made his original bequest. A truly great institution, a jewel in the mall landscape and a national treasure. Hats off and huzzah!

The books represents SUPER MOM at her best. Very Amazing and heart touching stories. Pages 158-161 Really brought tears to my eyes. It reminded me of someone-close. I had to withdraw them. I never actually met those children who are now adults but I LOVE THEM FOR BEING STRONG AND SUCCESSFUL. "JOB WELL DONE,"

Got this as a subscription for my Dad. It's a great publication. I remember seeing it as a kid - looked kinda boring and not relating to anything in my little kid-world. This mag is nicely designed, has beautiful and sometimes haunting photography and interesting articles. And not just about geography! Brain science, Garrison Keillor's hometown essay, dogs and handlers in the military - seriously, this mag is cool and very under-the-radar as far as good reads go.

I usually don't buy Sports Illustrated Swimsuit magazines but after seeing in stores that this was their 50th anniversary edition, I couldn't help but get my hands on a copy of it. After seeing Jimmy Kimmel promote the magazine on his show earlier this month, I was completely sold.

The magazine is loaded with colorful pages (a few center-fold) of all the beautiful SI Swimsuit models flowing throughout this magazine. There are also a few nice articles in here from some of the top models over the years to go along with it. The magazine is also double-sided. On one side you have models Nina Agdal, Lily Aldridge and Chrissy Teigen giving the viewer a nice view of their backsides. On the opposite side, you have the always beautiful Kate Upton with the cover all to her beautiful self.

After witnessing just how exhilarating this issue is, I may just have to become a monthly subscriber to Sports Swimsuit Illustrated! Mostly just so I can see more of the gorgeous and charming Kate Upton! But I recommend this to any fans/collectors/readers of Sports Swimsuit Illustrated. You definitely won't be disappointed and this issue is must-have

I received a free advance digital copy of Lose the Cape: Never will I Ever (and then I had kids) to write a non-biased review. The moms in this anthology are moms like me, like you, the every mom. At some point, we all eat our words (eh, as long as someone in this house is eating something, right?). Ranging from funny to serious stories, this book highlights the moments when never becomes now and even always. Motherhood changes us, broadens our perspective, and enhances the vision of our point of view. Most importantly, motherhood unites us in our struggles and our victories. This book is a clear reminder that we are not alone.

Mom's the Word by Marilynn Griffith is fun mom-lit with a faithful twist. Karol Simon's life has shrunk from being a successful business woman with dreams of being a writer to being a frazzled wife and mother. When her best friend Hope moves from next door, and the new neighbor is a skinny, type-A career woman named Dyanne, Karol is angry at not only the loss of Hope, but at her husband's betrayal in sending her away. To make up for it, her hubby gives her 21 days of vacation from motherhood: no chores, worrying about the kids, and no one to call her Mom! Karol needs to decide if she has the courage to try to dream again. Griffith is a fantastic writer, and this book is evidence of her ability to juggle multiple plots with ease. Between Karol, Dyanne, and several intriguing subplots, the story flies! Karol is a mom so many can relate to: she loves her husband and kids, but she wants to be something more than just a mom and to use the gifts that God gave her. Learning to juggle motherhood with individuality is a struggle most moms face, and Griffith depicts Karol's yearning to be a writer with depth, heart, and humor.

Visual delights and thoughtful, entertaining articles.  Yeah I really do read the articles and fictional stories.  Not a fan of the 11 issues instead of 12, but that seems common in the magazine industry these days.

One of my favorite magazines

I am a person that reads and subscribes to quite a few magazines... my current count is about 10 or so. Marie Claire has been in that rotation for quite some time.  The articles are absolutely well written.  Engaging. Marie Claire also does a great job of having diverse information for varied backgrounds and groups.  Fashion coverage is also fantastic as well.

I am a huge aficionado of haiku. Peyton Price does a brilliant job of taking the daily mundane and crazy, hugging them together with a little bit of humor and knocking it out of the park 5-7-5. This is a great gift for all moms, the perfect coffee table book and a treat for you to get yourself.

On the third season of Project Runway, the first that I watched and the one that got me hooked on the show, there was a striking, tall redhead in her early forties who had arrived with vintage Louis Vuitton luggage and a bun in the oven. She went through the early months of her sixth pregnancy designing and sewing gorgeous clothes, and wearing stilettos. I was instantly a fan. (I still think she should have won the whole shebang!)

Lately, she's been emceeing on various red carpets and writing the occasional column over at The Daily Beast, about the vicissitudes of raising five boys (her oldest child, a daughter, is out of the nest) in New York City, while trying at the same time to maintain a career and one's sanity. Now she has written a book of essays on the subject, with wry wit and a no-nonsense attitude.

Bennett has no patience with so-called "helicopter moms", nor with those who drown their own needs in their children's lives. As she puts it, comparing parenting with flying, you have to "provide yourself with oxygen first, or you will be of no use to your children." This sensible attitude and the sly humor with which she expresses it has, of course, driven some with no sense of humor around the bend, as evidenced by some of the comments left on her Daily Beast column. These same people huff and puff and say, "It's all very well for her. She has nannies!" But they miss the point. You don't have to have nannies or a successful architect husband to realize that your kids are human beings, you aren't perfect, and that you have to relax, enjoy your life, and enjoy your children (while they are children). If you can be fabulous along the way, more power to you.

I have no doubt that it would be great fun to share a martini and dish with her, too.

This is something you buy and all your other mom friends envy you for.

I have just recently begun to read Marie Claire regularly, and I must say that it is refreshing compared to most other magazines. In the past I had to buy several magazines to cover what I wanted to know, but MC covers fashion (including both high priced items as well as items that a poor college kid can afford-a big plus since this is a large market for beauty mags) and it also covers important issues from around the world. Although I wish it had a little more on fitness and health it still keeps me coming back to the newsstand every month.

I am a college educated, professional woman and I still love this magazine.  In fact it was my guilty pleasure while I was attending college and didn't have time to sit down a read a good novel.  US Weekly has some of the best photographs of stars compared to the other mags on the newsstand (ranking only second to In Touch at times).  US Weekly does have the best content.  They have more content than In Touch and less of the stuff that I don't care about like People magazine publishes.  US Weekly is a steal at the subscription price.  So, why don't you check one out at the newsstand and subscribe if you like it as much as I do?
