Welcome to the Book Nook At Create With Joy!
Welcome to the Book Nook at Create With Joy – a place where book lovers gather to share their collective love of books, reading, and all things literary!
Our goal is to establish a family-friendly community where bibliophiles from all backgrounds – readers, bloggers, reviewers, writers, authors, teachers, librarians, parents, homeschoolers, publicists and publishers – can share what’s new in the world of books, blogging, and publishing!
At each gathering, we’ll share book-related news and fill you in on what’s happening around the blogosphere. We’ll also provide a link where you can share your book-related and literacy-related posts as well!
Please help the Book Nook grow by adding our beautiful blog button and links to your blog/posts and spreading the word on your social media sites so that others can join the fun!
We look forward to getting to know you and invite you to connect with us on:

Thanks for stopping by #SocialButterflySunday and sharing your awesome party! Glad to have you link up and hope you will link up again as the new party starts tomorrow 🙂
Blessings milady–and best wishes to you with a new fall reading season! Hubby brought me home three biz building books I will be diving into including Lisa Terkeurst’s “The Best Yes” which will have a slap in the face lesson for this busy bee for sure. Lots happening on the books and reading front in my house and I’m trying to get into a blog routine–and posting and reading blog routine–with more focus and purpose. Also need to give some attention to my Goodreads! Gah–some new glasses would do me well, too. Thanks for hosting the joy of beautiful things and reading with us all!
Joy!
