The Dewey Decimal System of Love

THE DEWEY DECIMAL SYSTEM OF LOVE: Josephine Carr: New American Library: Romance: 272 pgs.

An uptight, celibate, cat lover librarian goes throughout her day working at the reference desk, and overseeing the staff of a large library. Long ago she decided that she liked being alone, and prefers life without a man. After a chance encounter with a charismatic orchestra conductor, she slowly realizes that her libido is not dead. In order to get closer to the conductor, she begins volunteering in the orchestra records room and runs across some expensive, first edition manuscrips. Various twists and turns and evil doings, and the story becomes a mystery that she must solve. It's wrapped up a bit too perfectly, but overall, this was a fun read.

I tried to read this one, because I loved the cover, but I just couldn't do it. I tried and failed to like the characters.
