Septembet 2015 issue of Good Housekeeping magazine

Part of it is printed/bound one way - and part of it is printed/bound the opposite way. Apparently intentionally.

I hope this is a one-time experiment for them.

A fair number of magazines do that but they don't seem to do it with every issue, just now and again.

This month's issue of Taste of Home has the same format. Maybe trying something different??

Reminds me of those kids books that you could turn to any page to "make your own adventure".

Just thinking...how would GH do that with their online edition???? Maybe we have to view the pages from the backside of the screen? LOL I am NOT fond of this type of edition. Stick to the basics and no flipflop of pages.

I've seen several magazines like that too. Both sides are in English. I don't understand the purpose, to be honest. Especially since I like to flip through magazines from back to front!!
