4 out of 5 stars Each Issue Has Worthwhile Articles   August 17, 2008
Robin Sacks (Mountain View, CA)
I've been buying MORE at the newstands for years. This magazine is geared specifically for women over 40. It's not easy to find, so I decided to subscribe. Each issue has lengthy articles that are worth reading. It does a balanced job of covering health issues. Features on clothes, make-up, an over-40 actress, a female chef and her recipes are always included. My only complaint is that the cost of the clothes featured always adds up to more than $1000 per outfit. That's well beyond my clothing budget.


3 out of 5 stars Looking for Good Articles   May 6, 2008
J. Bass (Germantown, TN)
I'm always looking for good reading material and get a bit tired of the younger set's taste. I ordered the More subscription based on recommendations of friends and looking forward to good articles. It is loaded with advertisements which, unfortunately, is a must in today's publishing environment but hopefully at the end of the year's subscription I will be pleased with my purchase price.


5 out of 5 stars Love this magazine!   April 14, 2008

As a 39 year old looking ahead to 40, I thought I would check this out. Love it! Great concise articles. Inspirational. Realistic. Practical advice.


2 out of 5 stars Some good information, but a downbeat tone   March 27, 2008

I can't say this magazine has no useful or interesting information - but I find the overall tone quite depressed and depressing. I don't mind that the fashion articles are full of over-priced clothing - they still give a general idea of styles that can look good on women over 40. I don't mind that most of the women pictured look like they spend many hours a day working on their appearance - we all have different priorities, and maybe my own should be adjusted a bit more in that direction. I don't mind the celebrities on the covers - if a photo of Holly Hunter helps them sell magazines, it's okay by me.

But many of the (admittedly well-written) articles seem to suggest that the number and the scope of problems that women over 40 must deal with are overwhelming. Unhappy marriages, age-related illnesses, resentful children, difficult parents, estranged siblings, soul-destroying jobs, etc., etc., etc. - even the books and movies reviewed seem to be mostly in the same vein. The occasional up-beat article often celebrates a woman who divorced her husband, quit her job, moved away from her family, and "re-invented" herself as a ceramic artist, or an acupuncturist, or an ostrich farmer. (I'm exaggerating a little - but not much!)

Yes, middle age brings some difficulties with it, but not every woman who is 40+ regrets every important decision she has ever made. And most of us who have reached that milestone have also reached a point at which we can and do use our common sense to deal with problems as they arise. Lighten up, More!

When I ordered More I expected a magazine for the AVERAGE woman over 40. Among other things I had hoped for fashions for small women (2 petite) who don't want to dress like teenagers or "20 somethings". Instead I found mostly outrageously priced clothing - $1,385.00 for the suit, $555.00 shoes and $350.00 for the clutch bag. This was far from being the most expensive ensemble pictured. Even if could afford this kind of money for clothing I couldn't justify spending it when many families can't even afford food and medicine. I have no use for this publication.
