I am a library potato.
The following introduces how the phrase came out.
Do you think it sounds reasonable?
couch potato = someone who spends a lot of time sitting and watching television
mouse potato = someone who spends a lot of time playing on a computer. This word developed from the word 'couch potato' which means someone who spends a lot of time watching television.
The above patatoes are collected by Longman Dictionary .
Hence the "library potato" is coined here likewise. Hope you dare to use it.
==========================
Will the coining work?
