In my opinion, this book is GREAT!! Yes, it is a compilation of already printed material from their magazine; however, do to room issues, I have never been one to hold onto my magazines for long...six months to a year max. So, being able to get one book that includes all the best from 2 years worth of issues that fits neatly on my bookshelf is fabulous. I did recognize many of features as ones that had been my favorites in the original issues and I loved be able to read and peruse them again. With that said, I know that many people do keep all their magazines...and for a long time at that. If you are one of those people, then, yes, this book probably isn't for you because you would still have all the content. So, keep in mind that my rating is based on my needs and how I scrapbook and manage my supplies and resources.
