The Magazine Rack

One of my favorite features on MediaPost is The Magazine Rack, a weekly (or so) blog in which three alternating authors critique a wide range of magazines, from the biggest national general-interest periodicals to the narrowest niche publications.

It’s a great way to discover (and rediscover) interesting titles: This post, for instance, led me to two local newsstands to pick up not one, but two recent issues of the featured magazine — partly because I wanted to read one of the articles the review mentioned, and partly because Psychology Today is so consistently interesting that it seemed like a worthwhile buy. Another recent post features Saveur, one of the best food magazines out there.

If you love magazines, browsing through the Magazine Rack’s archives is well worth the time.
