My Review:
*An ARC copy of this book was provided by the author in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own. I would like to thank the author for the copy*

Bubblegum was such an action packed rollercoaster of events, where do I begin? There are so many elements of this book that I loved: it was diverse, it was witty, it had strong feminist characters and there were so many twists and turns thatI had to do a double take at times! 

I enjoyed the dystopian world this book created, while it set up the story it still felt very contemporary and real, perhaps not in the too distant future. You all know I love a good mystery and I have to admit that I did not see this twist coming, I loved the twist in this book and it just made it that much better.  

The main element of the book I loved was the characters, they were all so different but all just as likeable and they made a unlikely but awesome team. I think my favourite would have to be Tiana, she is the ultimate badass and it was very fun to read from her point of view. 

While Bubblegum does deal with some darker topics or undertones, the book is definitely a light, fast paced read, if you are in need of some action I would definitely recommend Bubblegum by Sari Taurez.

I will be completing an Author Q & A series on my blog soon and I am so excited to announce that Sari Taurez has agreed to be a part of this, my Q & A with her will be available very soon!
