Advantages: Quick to read
Disadvantages: Quick to read
I used to buy this magazine religiously, from summer 2006-late 2007 because it was quirky. It had high street fashion pages, real-life stories, celebrity gossip and sex tips/stories. A little something for everyone if you will.
Then a few months ago the magazine had a revamp, completely removing their sex tips pages, their stories and loading up on huge pictures of celebrities with tiny articles. There are more words in children's books than in this magazine. It's morphed into a poor attempt at Heat magazine.
The celebrity news is minimal with reams of pictures and celebrity interviews including Jordan and Corrie stars. They've introduced make-over pages where they take soap characters and dress them like 17 year olds. What a brilliant idea (!)
The magazine has fallen foul to the idea of bulking out with adverts to keep the magazine short which means that you spend more time flicking than you do reading the 4 word articles.
The magazine takes a matter of minutes to read, even for the slowest of readers, and you don't learn anything new, there's never anything shocking or mind-blowing, nothing that makes you think, the make-up advice has all been heard before and the selection of guys is poor.
All in all you'd be better saving up your pennies and buying a fortnightly magazine instead of blowing £1.30 a week on this trash.
Summary: There are much better things around
