>YA librarian
What the fuck
>>
Get some short story collections by Paul Jennings, an Australian author. Very fun stories, I'd recommend Unreal to start with
>>
>>8073203
YA librarian? What? Why wouldn't you just be a normal librarian without a specialization you pleb?
>>
well
a normal librarian deals with some old hags and adult men
a ya librarian deals with a lot of cute girls...
>>
>>8073225
That's just how we get hired here. They interview you, then just put you somewhere as either an adult, childrens, or ya librarian.
Money isn't too bad. But i never read ya...seems so dull. 99% is dystopia or some female relationship crap.
>>
>>8073223
Thank you

>Cute girls.
>Reading.

I part-timed at the library, all you get are uggos, the occasional whales in a DnD session and poor-as-fuck older women renting Spongebob DVDs to keep their kids quiet.
>>
>>8073229
Well we deal with everyone but im just in charge of the ya area and teen volunteers.
>>
>>8073235
Teen cuties?

Meh. Not really. Mostly get tweens here. The volunteers here are older but i can't perv on girls who volunteer. It's weird. Plus i'm fug and they can care less.

But there is a little college age hottie about 20 who flirts with me. That's more my thing than some teen who can't wipe her ass right.
>>
>>8073249
You ready to slip that 20 y/o a bit more than another shitty YA book?
>>
>>8073262
Of course.

Them legs are nice and a 10/10 cutie pie.

Fuck my life that I can't have it tho..cause bitch would know where i worked. Lol
>>
Taitor's Blade, which is the first of The Greatcoats. Damn good swordfighting scenes and a great story.
>>
>>8073289
Thank you.

Will check it out.
>>
>>8073278
if you rate somebody as 10/10 it almost always means either your standards are poor or that you are in love... usually the former
>>
>>8073297
Yeah we had some moments. Had a whole few days when i kept thinking about her.

But...the next time i had to blow her off to help out someone. Need to do work first.
>>
>>8073203
Game of Thrones.
>>
>>8073231
Do you have a library sciences degree or anything like that?
>>
>>8073203
The Catcher in the Rye? Or does that go under dystopia bullshit?
>>
>>8073403
It's exactly the YA bullshit
>>
>>8073401
Yup
>>
Skulduggery was fun.
>>
>>8073203
La rivière à l'envers 1
La rivière à l'envers 2

By Jean-Claude Mourlevat. Find a translation, this shit is excellent.
>>
>>8073454
How was it getting the degree? Where did you go to school?
>>
Librarians are useless.

The few times I bothered to consult a librarian, they had no clue about any of it and I had to look it up on-line, anyway.

Nobody expects you to have read any YA (nor anything else for that matter). You're just a high-paid book shelver.
