To our print subscribers:
Due to declining print quality and ongoing production delays with our previous printing partner, we made the decision to transition to a new printer. We’re pleased to share that the transition is now complete, our agreement with the new printer has been finalized, and production is moving forward.
The March/April issues are scheduled to ship from the printer in mid-July, with the May/June issues following shortly thereafter. While this transition has caused unfortunate delays, we expect the new partnership to provide a much more reliable production schedule and significantly improved print quality going forward.
In the meantime, you may access the digital version so that you don’t have to wait any longer to start reading. Create a free account here, and then visit this page to find the digital issue.
Thank you for your patience, understanding, and continued support throughout this transition. We appreciate your loyalty and look forward to getting these issues into your hands very soon.
Warmly,
The Must Read Magazines Team

The pontoons bounced on the placid water of the cove and I taxied the seaplane into a practiced spin against Dr. Feldon’s deck, then tied off quick so I could get inside, and while I’ll admit I wasn’t as observant as I might’ve been in my bladder-induced haste, I can attest to one thing: There was not a dead man on the floor of the cargo cabin when I left the plane.
Yet.
When I emerged relieved from her bathroom, I saw her walking out onto the dock with a bottle and a bowl holding an ice block, and I followed her out. We had an arrangement, the doctor and I. READ MORE
