Hello cupid.....Oh its ages since I laid my hands on that book.....Well infact in my college days I used to devour them with great fervour.The humour in uniform,the real life stories,and other articles were really interesting...But some where along the way I stopped reading them or subcribing to them.And both my boys have no reading habit.....Well this discussion is really making me nostalgic,and I would love to lay my hands on one pretty soon.....!!

I have always been very fond of reading the Readers Digest and I always subscribe to it. In fact I was reading it just now in the lunch break. It is good to enhance our vocabulary and the stories there are very good.

When I was younger Readers Digest were available everywhere I turned. I pretty read them from cover to cover, my favorite things being the jokes. It is funny though as I think about this, I can not remember that last time I have even held a Readers Digest. I will have to look for one next time I'm at a bookstore, just for old times sake.

Hi Cupid, It is good to know that you are utilizing your time encouragingly. Readers Digest is a reputed Magazine by worldly. I was a subscriber of the RD about 8 years and I didn’t renew the subscription last year just because of not getting time for reading. I kept all the old issues safety for reading my kids when they grow up. I will definitely subscribe the magazine in future for my kids.

Hi cupid! My grandmother used to read Readers Digest when I was a child. I do remember reading it myself to after a while. I really liked it. I'm glad you brought it up because I hadn't thought about it in a while! I'll definately have to see if I can find one and maybe subscribe.

I loved this magazine! Reader's Digest has always been one of the most favorite magazine since my childhood days. I have collected a lot of old readers digest issues from the nineties and today , my niece too enjoy reading them. I used to read each and every page from this brilliant magazine and even today I do the same with the old issues.My favorite sections were Life is like that and the Humor sections, which were really classy..
