Magic Eye Friday - bet you see this one!

Don't forget to stare hard...


Well, did you see it? ;o)

Books...
I'm looking forward to taking part in Marie Landry's Spooktacular Reading Challenge, which starts tomorrow. I've already got my first two books lined up - Hidden by Shalini Boland (have had a sneak peak and can't wait to fully immerse myself) and The Bringer by Samantha Towle - which looks intriguing. I still need to pick my third book for October, so if anyone can recommend a good paranormal/fantasy read, please do!


Life in General...
We're in the middle of a mini heatwave in the UK - woo hoo! Tomorrow the mercury is set to hit the eighties, and if it does, it will be the hottest day recorded in October (UK) EVER!! It would be rude not to BBQ, although we're cheating and going to a friend's :o). Finally, I'm looking forward to my mum and dad returning to the UK. They've been visiting my brother and his family in Sweden, and right at the end of the trip my dad was admitted to hospital. He's fine now, and allowed to fly home next week.

Have a great weekend everbody!!

Eek! I was so excited because it didn't look like a little white square and then that giraffe popped out at me. LOL. Sorry it's so hot. It's kind of nippy here. Have a good weekend too. :)

Randy said...

Nice. I definately saw that.

Andrew Leon said...

Well, mine, of course! :P

@Laila - Glad you saw him!! He's cute isn't he?

Amanda Leigh Cowley said...

@Randy - he's for all the peeps who get frustrated with the regular ones :o)

Amanda Leigh Cowley said...

@Leon - thanks for the unbiased recommendation! ;o)

Andrew Leon said...

I do my best :P

I completely freaked out when the giraffe popped out! (I'm an easily scared person and I scream really loud -.-;) I hope you make it through the heat! It's also very hot here in the Philippines, even with the two typhoons.

Sabrina said...

*loudly

>.<

Sorry for the heart failure, Sabrina! I bet our 'heat' is a cool day for the Phillipines... but we're enjoying it while it lasts :o) Stay safe in the typhoons!

Yay for the challenge! I can't believe it's October already. I was watching someone's in my mailbox in the UK and she said how hot it was there and I thought that was strange. It's been freezing here the last few days, and then it's supposed to get hot again by mid-week. This time of year is so strange for weather!

@SweetMarie - yep, enjoying the first book on my challenge list. I'm taking my Kindle with me everywhere - kid's footie matches, post office queue, etc - just in case I can fit some more reading in!

The weather in the UK is very strange - BBQs in sweltering heat while the leaves change colour and fall - not complaining though - am sure we'll be in winter coats by the weekend. Hope you enjoy it when it comes to Canada!! :o)
