What we’re about
New Book Joy Booktique invites every type of reader (and non-readers!) to our on-the-road events that are around the Chicagoland area. We collaborate and team with various local small businesses and organizations, in order to host and be a part of these bookish adventures. We love bringing the JOY of reading to people, as well as experiencing different (and fun!) places around the area and meeting other individuals!
~New members are always welcome!
~If you are not a huge reader, no worries, you can still enJOY the events!
We hope you can join us!
