Political and not funny any more
Subscription Length: 1 year auto-renewal
Growing up, RD was a staple of literary genius. I think all the retirees are rolling over in their graves after what RD has become. It's boring, they make grammatical errors (or should I say *error's* since they misuse said sky comma all the time now), and worst of all they are POLITICAL. So sad.

Magazine is not as good as it used to be. Also RD auto renewed my subscription early without notice. Still working to cancel it.

It is not the old Reader's Digest. It seems politically flavored & preachy, and reads like one writer does all the writing. I'm sorry to say the "Quotes" sections is horrible. The true stories are good and the humor at work, life and military are still funny.

FIVE STARS FOR THE MAGAZINE, BUT BEWARE OF FUTURE OFFERS
Subscription Length: 1 year auto-renewal
The information in this MAGAZINE is a joy to read and includes current non-fictional information, biographies, jokes, photos, and so much more. It’s smaller size makes it handy to keep in a purse or larger pocket. There is even a large print version. We had been RD subscribers for years prior to movi
ng, so when Amazon offered this offer, we eagerly signed up for ONE subscription. (However we received TWO subscriptions!) Why only ONE STAR? The RD magazine would get 4 or 5; however we gave it only ONE as a warning. Our subscription, as mentioned in other reviews, initiated a ton of junk mail offers for additional products/books arrived by e-mail and by USPS! There was no requirement to buy these products, but let’s face it, junk mail appropriately earned it’s name. But, the nightmare got worse! We recently received a package containing a book (untitled) that was the first volume of many to follow. The book cost $10+ tax, but was free for the first volume, $0.00. There was no price listed for the following untitled books. NOR was there any way to opt out of further issues!!! The [only] ONE instruction included and was to return the “payment slip” with a check (bank information). Talk about the RED FLAGS for FRAUD!!! Please note: The company requesting this information was not Reader’s Digest nor Amazon... another red flag. And there was no way to return the book or auto-shipments of further volumes! Not even information on the titles or genre. Just a friendly warning...

Perfect Reading When You're Short on Time
Subscription Length: 1 year auto-renewal
I have been reading the Readers Digest since I was a little kid... It's perfect for reading when you're short on time and don't want to be board. The condensed stories always keep me interested and make the rest of the world fade way. The Amazon Deal is something, Nobody should pass up! Thank you!

Deletes issues even if not read.
I love it accept, it deleats my magazines. I sometimes do noit get to read an issue because I'm too busy. I paid for it why then does the app delete my past issues, even if unread? Shame! Will have to cancel.

Excellent read, disappointing limit on my Kindle
LOVE the digest. Am super bummed to learn that I can't get it on my Kindle fire. Most puzzling. Can't imagine what prevents it.
