We’re taking a tour through the new releases across many genres from April 2005, nearly 20 (!!!) years ago. Romance has changed a wee little bit.


How much cringe shall we find? Plenty!


Other oddities? Mainstream includes YA and Chick Lit. Contemporary includes New Reality. Regency in Format includes Corinthians! And we’re trying to understand a character who wants to “dim the pain of turning 30.” It’s a ride, as usual.


Side trips include Sea Breeze, Stridex, and St Ives Medicated Apricot Scrub.


TW: for mention of sexual assault, body horror – we do announce it in the audio so you can skip ahead.


You can find all the Romantic Times Rewind episodes, visual aids posts, and more in one convenient place!


Don't miss the visual aids for this episode!
