Letterbox love + Stacking the shelves [7]

Letterbox Love is a weekly feature hosted by Lynsey on Narratively Speaking. The idea apparently came out of a group discussion on twitter.

It's a new meme for the UK bookbloggers where we share the books that we've received, bought, borrowed ect.. every week.
I wanted to do this meme because i'm going to live in England in a few months so it would be an awesome way to meet UK bloggers !

And i'm also doing Stacking the shelves. I know i'm already doing Letterbox Love but I like this meme. I really like Tynga's blog and I met a lot of awesome bloggers thanks to this meme these past few weeks. So i'm doing two meme now every sunday :).

I received so many books this week and I was so happy :). 3 of these books were pre-order that I was really excited to receive.

Scarlet by AC Gaughen : A retelling of Robin Hood with some kick-ass heroine? I'm sold !
Grave Mercy by Robin LaFevers : Fantasy, an assasin, medieval France... I'm sold again !
I pre-ordered Scarlet and Grave Mercy a while ago because I was waiting for their paperback release.
Storm by Brigid Kemmerer : This is the first book in the elemental series. And there is also in this book the prequel novella Elemental. I've read great reviews about this book. I'm not expecting much of it so we'll see if I will like it.
The Golden Lily by Richelle Mead : probably my most anticipated book of 2012. I'm currently reading it and loving it so far. I'm so happy that the third book is going to be released in february. It's awesome because we don't have to wait a whole year to read the next book and I will be in England when it'll be out :).
And finally I got two bookmarks. Thanks again Lothfleur. She made them herself !!! I love them so much. Brightly Woven was one of my favorite read in 2011 and I now that Lothfleur bought it thanks to my review and she loved it as well so it means a lot to me. And I love the second one too. The Agency series is one of my favorite series now and these covers are beautiful.
