RAK: For/From October and November Wishlist

RAK (Random Acts of Kindness) is a really great program that Vanessa and Isalys of Book Soulmates have started. Basically, it gives bloggers, book lovers and readers the chance to brighten someone's day by sending them a book that they've put on their wishlist.

I declared October International RAK Month for myself. Basically I decided to choose some international names from the RAK sign-up and see if I could spread the love to other countries. Here's what I gifted:
