WIP word challenge: blue or book?

The first thing Sam notices are his eyes. They’re damn near ethereal; a shimmering blue like the surface of a cool lake on a hot summer afternoon.

He doesn’t remember it at all, but his baby book was filled with pictures of him as both a chubby blonde baby and a little orange kitten who’s ears were too big for his head.

Thanks! 

Send me a word, I’ll tell you if it’s in my WIP
