 Cool to look at, but when it comes to reading... June 5, 2004

... I don't know. I guess my major complaint is that, if you aren't already privy to the latest in fashion, music, etc (like the other reviewer said, and he's quite right, this is a very hip magazine), then you'll probably feel pretty lowbrow. They don't really try to familiarize you with what's cool like GQ or DETAILS does; you're either in or you're not. However, it's definitely better than FLAUNT, which seems to be trying to imitate BLACK BOOK, in that the photography isn't as pretentious and the articles have a little more substance.My last (subjective) complaints: the covers usually have celebrities I sort of consider to be overexposed (Jay Z, Adrien Brody, et al), and this is the magazine that Norman Mailer's stupid son/grandson (I don't remember which) John Buffalo Mailer wrote a piece in that has since catapulted him into HIGH TIMES fame (nepotism is never cool).

Starting as a quartely publication, Black Book has vaulted to bi-monthly releases and the highest level a magazine can aspire to reach. The publishers have their finger on a pulse that pumps literary, fashion, music, entertainment and art style onto eye catching pages. I haven't missed an issue and never will.

Perhaps it is because my view is very NYC-centric but I find this magazine to be a great means of keeping abreast in the progressive culture scene despite my uptown address. The photography is fantastic. Working in headline fashion, this magazine is a great resource for up and coming designers and new things to keep watching. Before something is classifiable as "hip" anywhere else, its here.

I absolutely love this magazine! BlackBook has the latest on everything culture, art and fashion related. The GetLit page is the first place I look when I'm trying to find somewhere new and trendy to go. I recommend this mag to all of my friends, and they love it as much as I do! The BlackList is jam-packed with all the best places to go. I will never miss an issue!
A New Look at BlackBook!! October 19, 2007
KathyBo (Montclair, NJ United States)
BlackBook has undergone a HUGE transformation in the last year - from what was fast becoming an outdated "bad-boys arts club" to a fresher and IMHO more beautiful look at what is the BEST in fashion, music, Hollywood, film, etc. Photography - GORGEOUS! Writing - BETTER and more IN DEPTH! Access to interesting people - UNLIMITED! I love that BlackBook is now a magazine that my boyfriend and I can share! I love the lush fashion photography and the quirky great reads - he loves the music/books/films/arts coverage. We both love the celeb interviews - which are always interesting and never quite what we expected. I mean - for heaven's sake - they made Pam Anderson an interesting read!!
