Meet The Owner
Hi! I’m Sydney Ivey, a lifelong Denverite and former kindergarten teacher. After five wonderful years in the classroom, I decided to trade finger paints for paperbacks and follow my passion for romance novels. Books have always been my escape—the place I found comfort, joy, and inspiration—and now I’m thrilled to share that with you.
The Purple Leash Project
At Spicy Librarian, we believe in giving back. That’s why 5% of all proceeds support The Purple Leash Project, an organization dedicated to providing pet-friendly shelters and resources for survivors of domestic abuse. Together, we’re helping to create safe spaces for everyone—pets included.
