How Sassy Changed My Life

Jeannette Ordas

Sassy didn't change my life. In fact, I never read a single issue. I didn't have the cash to spend on magazines though I do remember leafing through it at my local bookstore a few times. If I had purchased an issue, I certainly would have gobbled it up but I'm sure I still would have felt that I just wasn't cool enough. Reading this I was disappointed that there were no pictures, no photos of covers, no cute little sidebars to help draw me in and make me see what I had missed. All in all, it all seemed just to cliquey for me and I don't feel like I really missed a thing.

This was a fun and informative look back at one of the magizine that I feel shaped who I am today. I recommend this one to anyone who grew up reading Sassy.
