Josephine Carr, author of My Very Own Murder and The Dewey Decimal System

From Library Journal:

Ally Sheffield, 40-year-old spinster librarian, woefully inexperienced, and 15 years celibate, is finally in love! So what if the object of her adoration is a world famous orchestra conductor -- very married and totally unobtainable. Just watching him conduct makes her heart pound, her head light, and her stomach queasy. Naturally, the glow shows, and the first one to notice -- and be stunned by it -- is Ally’s attractive boss, best friend at work, and, in her opinion, “serial womanizer,” Gordon Albright. Although the book is marred by a somewhat jarring plot twist that ties up things a bit too neatly, Carr’s quirky characters, screwball sense of humor, and right-on descriptions are marvelous, making the journey to the satisfying ending well worth the trip. This hilarious romp through the stacks (complete with relevant DDC call number areas and selected titles) will definitely attract the library set. In addition, the zingy, thoroughly modern tone and the exceptionally appealing heroine should catch the attention of readers who like their romances lively, smart, and funny. Carr has also written as Jody Carr (Monday’s Child) and lives in Washington, DC.
