Stacking the Shelves is a weekly feature hosted by Tynga's Reviews. It's a way for us to share the books that we received during the week.
This week I received two books:
Scarlet by A. C Gaughen from Bloomsbury Australia - I've recently read a couple of reviews for this and it sounds good! The only Robin Hood story I'm familiar with is Robin Hood: Men in Tights and I have a feeling this is going to be nothing like that ;)
Speechless by Hannah Harrington from Harlequin Australia - this is a finished copy, my review is here
Thanks for dropping by :)

I loved your Speechless review :) Scarlet sounds wonderful, I can't wait to see what you think of it.
Happy reading x
Such a short and sweet haul this week, Mandee. I wasn't a big fan of Scarlet although I know many people were, so I hope you enjoy it! I love the Aussie Cover of Speechless and your review for it was spectacular, so it's nice to have a finished copy of that now too! :) Happy Reading, dear! :D
I just finished reading Speechless :D It was pretty good. :)
I hope you like Scarlet too.
Speechless, a book I have yet to read and I keep coming across Scarlet but don't know what its about or anything.
Great haul!
Here's my Book Haul post.
Sana @ artsy musings of a bibliophile
Scarlet sounds interesting, I hope you enjoy it :) I've seen the finished copy of Speechless in stores and I love it - I think the colours work really well together.
SCARLET!!! YAY, so happy you got that book, Mandee! I really enjoyed it and look forward to reading your review ;) Finished copy of Speechless looks gorgeous! I really enjoyed Speechless too!
Awesome books this week, Mandee! ♥
I haven't heard of Scarlet before, Mandee- i'm intrigued. I haven't read any Robin Hood retellings or books inspired by this story so i'll have to keep an eye out for your review of this one!
Nice haul! I like the Australian cover of Speechless much better than the US cover! Enjoy your week!
Here are my books.
Scarlet looks really good. I saw a review of it recently and immediately put it on my TBR. I hope you like it.
Great books this week. I picked up Speechless this week after reading your glowing review :) Can't wait to see what you think of Scarlett, it seems interesting. Happy Reading!
Awesome books! You convinced me to add Speachless to my tbr when I read your review and Krista over at Nawanda Files has convinced me to read Scarlet. I hope you enjoy Scarlet, it sounds sooo good! *by the way* I know this is random but... is it just me or does the girl on the Scarlet cover slightly almost look like Nicole Kidman but with brown hair? Haha. Weird.
Hope you love Scarlet! Such a great book!
I loved Speechless and Scarlet sounds good! Happy reading!
Oooh Scarlet!! So excited to read your thoughts, I've been hearing amazing things about that book aswell, so I really hope it lives up to expectations for you. And Speechless! Yay <3 Awesome haul, Mandee!
Yay to Speechless, one of my top favourite 2012 reads! I hope you love it. :) Remindes me that I must snatch myself a copy so I can show it off on my bookshelf, in all its glory...
Happy reading!
I wasn't all that excited about Scarlet, but the reviews so far have been pretty positive. I'll decide after I read yours!
Enjoy your books, m'love.
I've heard awesome things of Scarlet - I got it from the library a few weeks back but ran out of time :(
Speechless sounds so good!
Enjoy!
Great books! I have Scarlet myself but I just haven't gotten round to reading it! Also I would love Speechless as I adored Saving June! I hope you enjoy these & I look forward to your reviews! :)
Need to pick up Scarlet soon!
Check out my haul.
Sangita @ Whisper of Reads.
Fun stuff! I've heard good things about both titles, especially Scarlet,
so I hope you enjoy them too!!
Ooooo Scarlet! I have that on my kindle and am mad excited to read it in the very near future.
Oooh, lucky you, getting that finished copy of Speechless! I heard Scarlet was good. I can't wait to see what you think of it. Enjoy your books!
omg, i really want to read scarlet!! enjoy!

Sunday Shout Out
Scarlet sounds fun! I keep seeing it pop up across the book blog world. I hope you enjoy it. Thanks for stopping by our blog- I get such a kick out of your cats! :-)
Ha, these are two books I've started that I really need to finish! I hope you enjoy them both, Mandee. :D
I was hesitant to read Speechless because I did not love Saving June. I didn't hate it, but lie you, I did not connect with it as much as other readers. But after seeing how much you loved Speechless, I think you may have convinced me. :)
AHHH!!! I'm trying to stamp down my frightening levels of excitement at people I like reading books I love. Scarlet's one of my favorite books of 2012, I absolutely adored it, so I hope you enjoy. It was actually my first Robin Hood book as well, as I too grew up watching Men in Tights. =)
I've heard nothing but wonderful things about Speechless so I'm excited to see your thoughts there as well. Maybe with your powers combined all of my bookish friends can convince me to read this contemp.
I loved Speechless too and can't wait to read Scarlet. I hope you enjoy! Btw, your blog is SO cute! I just had to follow. :)
i really want to read speechless. it has a very interesting premise. awesome books this week!! enjoy and happy reading :)

Scarlet is LEGIT LEGIT LEGIT. So freaking good! I can't wait to see what you think! And I love the Australian cover of Speechless - so torn between which two I like the most. Enjoy!
Tara @ Hobbitsies
Oh, I read Speechless on the weekend and enjoyed it. :) Review soon!
Scarlet is really good, supposedly, and Speechless is riding high since it's release, I think you'll really like both.
I'm a new follower, and I'd love it if you visited me :)
I'm jealous of Speechless I really liked that one and it was extremely good :) Also, lol on the Robin Hood comment. I tried watching that but it was so weird when it started I was like Whaaa? Happy reading and enjoy!
Speechless is so wonderful, isn't it? I've heard good things about Scarlet too. Enjoy!
We're men, we're manly men, we're men in tights, yes! :)
I had some mixed feelings about Scarlet, but enjoyed it overall. I hope you like it! :)
I'm really curious about Speechless...been hearing good things. I need to check out this author in general.
Good gosh, so many people have told me to read Scarlet, but I haven't yet. So yes, ditto the awesome things you've heard about it too. Looking forward to your review so I can see what you think. I'm hoping you love it cause I always trust your opinion. :)
I plan on reading Scarlet very soon. I hope we both enjoy! And I think you're right I kind of doubt it will be like MIT. LOL
Lovely books! I haven't read either, but I really need to get around to them. Especially excited about Speechless!
Following you ladies now! Thanks for visiting us! :) (LOVE the kittehs! So cute!)
