Welcome to the Spicy Side of Romance: Meet Sydney Ivey and Her New Bookstore!
Hey there, fellow lovebirds and bookworms! 
Do you ever get tired of the same old storyline in your life? Let’s face it, sometimes we just need a fresh narrative. Enter Sydney Ivey, a vibrant go-getter who traded her kindergarten classroom for a cozy nook filled with romance novels — and trust me, she’s not just playing “house” here; she’s running the show with flair!
A Kindergarten Teacher with a Bookish Dream
Once upon a time in the land of Denver, a 28-year-old kindergarten teacher dreamed of a world where love stories burst off the pages and onto the shelves. That’s right, friends! Time to say goodbye to ABCs and hello to the sizzling world of The Spicy Librarian!
Sydney’s Vision:
- Location: Denver’s RiNo neighborhood (hello, hipster haven!).
- Opening Date: January 18th! Mark your calendars and bring your bookish friends.
- Vibe: Think classic library meets chic romance lounge. We’re talking old card catalogs and plush carpet you’ll want to cozy up on during a steamy read.
Why Romance? Because It’s About Time!
Let’s spill some tea, shall we? Romance novels got a bad rap for too long. But not anymore! Thanks to the rise of TikTok and social media, these swoon-worthy tales are finally getting the recognition they deserve.
- Forget the days of scandalous covers: Romance has evolved and so have the stories. We’ve got complex characters, riveting plots, and oh-so-delicious subgenres (who doesn’t love a bit of fantasy with their romance?).
- Brilliant Authors: If you haven’t heard of names like Kristen Hannah or Rebecca Yarros, babe, you’re missing out on some serious literary gold!
More Than Just a Bookstore
But hold on, there’s more. Sydney is spicing things up by creating a community space that feels, well, inclusive — where women and LGBTQ+ folks can gather, discuss, and sip tea while diving into their favorite love stories. She’s making it clear: romance is real literature, and anyone who disagrees can exit stage left!
Her Mission:
- Book Club Meetings: Bring your besties, wine, and a sense of humor. These book clubs are going to be the stuff of legends!
- Author Lectures: Get ready to hobnob with the writers who make your heart race and your heart flutter.
- 5% to a Great Cause: Sydney is donating a portion of profits to the Purple Leash Project to help domestic violence survivors keep their pets. Because who wouldn’t want to support love — both for books and fur babies?
