If I could give it 0 stars I would, read by TYLER COBURN:
On April 1, 2008, without receiving any promotional information from the Slush Edition team,
the Rochester Public Library (the library in which Sexy Librarian takes place), ordered two
copies of the book. When this was discovered, both copies were checked out and there were
four holds. One copy was shelved under Fiction, and one was placed on the Bookmobile,
a portable extension of the library on an RV, driving around within the city limits.
On the website Librarything.com, user “kdedson,” who identifies herself as the Reader Services
Librarian at the Rochester Public Library, posted the following review of Sexy Librarian:
“This book is about a sexy displaced librarian at the Rochester Public Library (MN). Written by
a former Rochester Public Library volunteer and artist. Based on the book, I don’t think the
author enjoyed her time in the midwest.”
She gave the book one out of five possible stars
On the website Goodreads.com, user “Beth” posted the following review of Sexy Librarian:
“Sexy Librarian, Read in April, 2008
recommends it for: nobody
I read this book because it’s located where I work at the Rochester, MN, Public Library.
It was horrible. If I could give it 0 stars I would.”
