Read My Mind is the nineteenth studio album by American country music artist Reba McEntire, released on April 26, 1994.

"The Heart Is a Lonely Hunter" the album's fourth single, topped the country singles chart. The album peaked at No. 2 on both the country album chart and the Billboard 200 and is certified 3 times platinum by the RIAA.
