If you need to monitor object creation globally the best thing to use is signals

Like so:

from .models import Book
from django.db.models.signals import post_save

def book_created(sender, instance, created, **kwargs):
    if created and instance.title == 'book1':
       #logic here

post_save.connect(save_profile, sender=Book)

you need to stick that post_save.connect() function somewhere where it will be evaluated when the app is run, you can use app_dir/app.py for instance.
