R.A.K. Random Acts of Kindness

[Lisa]

Anyway, I didn't come up with this but I thinking it might work as an Aussie thing but some book bloggers have created this thing called Random Acts of Kindness where people just send books to other people randomly just to make their day since we all love books and I thought maybe we can do an Aussie one for members of the swap!

So basically we pick any member of the group send them a book you think they will like to read, is on their wishlist OR just bookish goodies like bookmarks and stuff, you will of course need to contact them first for their address but don't tell them what you're sending!

I thought it was agood idea, a little giving and receiving can make someone's day? I dunno...

I think it's fun - only I'm sure I'd end up sending people stuff they didn't want...

[Lisa]

Yer that's what I'm scared of too....

well the R.A.K in one blue have it that to be in it you post your wishlist from BD or Amazon.. so that should help? and who doesnt love swap and book goodies (bookmarks and what not)

I love this idea, we could set up a paypal account so we could all put a few dollars in and then send something randomly off their wishlist to a member.

LOVE IT, I'm in.

*n0ds* So any ideas... Did you see the travelling book poll?

[hollyishere]

Just voted in it now, I think a consensus of hells yeah has been made :)

heheheh sweeet! I might make a form this week for people to sign up and we need book ideas and then i can set up who gets its when and who sends to who

[hollyishere]

I could probably give you a list of most wanted novels atm. I guess they'd all have to be released already.

Sorry, if I've skipped this bit but who buys the books first up?

[Kikkra Reads]

What do you mean? I know I dont have much to trade so money is prob my best way of getting the book LOL

[Lisa]

You know how everyone made a To Swap shelf we could all make a wishlist shelf or something that way we can share the love! I seen some of the books that RAK US ppl get and it's really the thoughts that count!

I keen on making someones day ;p
