Well, that's a nice question. Recently, I've been really into psychology-related books because, while reading them, I feel like I'm learning something new, not just having fun. Regarding magazines, I don't think I've opened one since fifth grade. I used to read them occasionally just to see the new collection of dresses because I've been into fashion. However, now I'm not a big fan of magazines, especially when everything is online and you can just scroll through a couple of articles without having to open a magazine.
