Thanks to Kay Sisk for sending us this issue! We’re taking a look at the book reviews from the July 2004 issue of RT Book Club – yup, the magazine had a different title back then.

This issue predates the founding of SBTB, in fact! The genres are different, and so are the books inside. And! We have some one-star reviews!

We’re going to talk about

Color changing taffeta!Sex in department store fitting rooms!American historicals

And heads up for some absolutely incredible amounts of exoticism, racism, and something called “Lad Lit.”
