Random Thoughts: August RAK Wrap-Up!

It's the last day of August and we're already down to the last quarter of the year. How fast time flies these days.

Well, needless to say, I wasn't gifted any books this month but that's fine. Maybe September will be better! Hey, that kind of rhymes doesn't it?

I didn't send any books to people either but am planning to send some in the coming months so look out for it peeps! Keep on joining in the fun and I might be the one gifting you a cool book off your wishlist!

I'll put up September's Sign-Up post in a few days too so do join once it's up!

Random Thoughts: July RAK Breakdown and August Sign-up!

I've been MIA for quite awhile and so have not done my monthly RAK show-off! I got my first book gifted to me in July and am SO HAPPY about it. 
Without further ado, here's what I got!
 
from the lovely April Hamrick from America!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU April!!
(she doesn't have a blog but is taking part in this month's RAK!)
 
 
So, August is also almost ending but that doesn't mean you can't make someone's day or even week by sending them a lovely book! That's the great thing about Random Acts of Kindness (RAK) hosted by the great duo over at Book Soulmates! RAK is about sharing and caring, through books!
 

Here's some deets you'll need to read up on before you sign up!



Simple Giveaway Rules:
The giveaway is open to participants ONLY.

Please post about RAK and the giveaway info on your blog and paste link in the same google doc that you use to sign up for RAK
OR
If you don't have a blog, you can still be entered by tweeting about it or Facebooking it and TAG US.
{If you don't have the link by the time you sign up for the RAK itself, then please email me and I'll add it}
 
IMPORTANT: If you do not wish to sign up for the giveaway then please leave a comment in the comments section of the google doc. 

RULES RE-CAP & UPDATES:
  • Sign up each month that you'd like to participate.

  • Create a wish list (on Amazon, Goodreads, Book Depository, or your blog etc) and post it in the Google Doc located in each R.A.K post for the month.
  • If you choose to do a R.A.K for someone, check out their wish list and contact that blogger for their address.
