Over To You

Happy Birthday, Reader’s Digest! I first discovered your wonderful magazine by chance in a hotel reception. Your mixture of content and fascinating articles immediately captivated my attention and I made sure to subscribe to the publication upon returning home.

My very first issue (September 2017) included a revealing interview with Graham Norton. It also featured “On Your Radar”, profiling the interests of your diverse readership, and the “60-Second Stand-Up”, which were both segments I looked forward to every month.

“It’s a Mann’s World”, ie, Olly Mann’s humorous and relatable observations about his life still continue to entertain me to this day. “If I Ruled the World” is another favourite of mine and proposes some excellent ideas about how we could improve the way we run society.

What I love most about Reader’s Digest is that you frequently introduce new columnists and features, so the magazine always feels fresh and relevant. That’s why it’s stood the test of time and will, undoubtedly, be around for another 100 years!
