I've been reading mysteries since two of my aunts introduced me to them in high school back in the last century. My challenge then was reading them behind my algebra text. Now it's finding new mysteries and new authors. Fortunately I have a couple of favourite magazines to make my task easier. The Mystery Review 's writers approach mysteries as a literary form.
Review articles are comprehensive but never boring.
Book reviews are written by people who clearly care about mysteries. Any mystery fan can tell you that you can't judge a book by it's cover. Nonetheless, I like the covers of this magazine a lot. They're always line drawings, usually black and white with a red background, and quite arresting on the magazine rack. Of course, you're not going to seek it out just for its covers.
