October RAK & Wishlist

Book Soulmates

It's that time again! RAK is an awesome blog feature hosted by the girls over at Book Soulmates. Basically everyone loves mail, and we all love getting presents, so we can look at each other's wishlists and share the love of books!!






From Book Soulmates:

COMPLETE RULES RE-CAP:
Please read carefully & follow all rules!
  • Please sign-up each month that you can participate (and by participate, we mean give as well as receive).
  • Show off your participation by grabbing our RAK button (code is in the sidebar).
  • Create a wish list (on Amazon, Goodreads, 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 directly for their information.
  • Once you receive a RAK, send us an our new email to [rakbybooksoulmates @ gmail . com] so that we can update the Google Doc. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU SEND EMAILS TO THIS ADDRESS!
  • E-book participation is limited to files being gifted directly to a person from the e-book store. Amazon's Kindle Store is set up to allow this, as well as the Kobo store and we believe Barnes & Noble as well.
  • At the end of the month, SHOW US YOUR R.A.K by making a "RAK Wrap-Up" post.  This post should include who you SENT gifts to as well who you RECEIVED gifts from :)
OPEN TO EVERYONE including all our International brethren!

Easy peezy!!

Links you will need:
  • Sign up for October [HERE]
  • See who else is participating [HERE]
  • If you have any questions regarding RAK, please contact us via the following: rakbybooksoulamates @ gmail . com
     
    Good luck to all the giveaway participants and thanks for joining and passing on the kindness!
    You guys ROCK!!
Tips:
1. When talking about RAK on Twitter, please use the hastag (#RAK). It makes it much easier to keep track of the conversations, answer questions and/or tweet back! =)
2. When submitting your wish list, please make sure that it is set to PUBLIC viewing. Some people have run into trouble with wish lists that were set to private. We want to be sure that no one is left out of getting great RAKs.
3. Some of you seem to have gotten frustrated because you can't get your links to appear active. This is a very easy fix :) Just make sure that when you enter your link, do NOT hit the Enter key. Instead, hit the TAB key which will send you to the next field on the form. Additional spaces entered after the link will leave the link inactive.However, if this does happen to you...no worries, we'll fix it for you :)


    My Wishlist!

    For October I picked some of the holiday appropriate books on my wishlist :)

    (I've already been contacted by two people! Yay! I can't wait to get my new books :) )

    September RAK Wrap-up!

    Book Soulmates
    In September I received The Near Witch from Leatha!

    I already read it and posted my review :)

    Thanks Leatha!!! (She also sent me a pack of bookmarks and some yummy cookies :) I love birthday gifts!!)

    I sent two RAKs of a sort. I was limited in what I could spend so I picked two other RAK participants with nooks and sent them eGiftcards through Barnes and Noble so that they could download whatever title they wanted most :)

    I sent one to Leatha who also had a birthday this month!
    I sent one to Ivy who had a birthday last month but didn't get any RAKs.
