    Bubble World

    By Carol Snow

    About this ebook

    Freesia’s life is perfect. She lives on the beautiful tropical island of Agalinas, surrounded by idyllic weather, fancy dress shops, and peacocks who sing her favorite song to wake her up in the morning. She has so many outfits she could wear a different one every day for a year and not run out.Lately things on the island may have been a bit flippy: sudden blackouts, students disappearing, even Freesia’s reflection looking slightly . . . off. But in Freesia’s experience, it’s better not to think about things like that too much.Unfortunately for her, these signs are more than random blips in the universe. Freesia’s perfect bubble is about to pop.

      It’s a care, a real care, when a writer whose work you love takes on a project like a seasonal quartet. The potential for readerly woe is plain: four novels forced into a form already replete with corny allegories and tired themes. Ali Smith begins h

      What a fun, cool book. Freesia's world is perfect; her pet peacocks wake her every morning with a song; Mummy serves delicious meals daily, always with a smile on her face. She has her own "itty car", and a perfect circle of friends, all of which are as eye-catchingly beautiful as she. Her classes range from Glitter Eye-Makeup to Korean Fusion. The weather is always perfect; sunset's glorious. What more can a girl ask for? Sometimes bubbles can pop, however, and Freesia learns things are not always as good as they seem to be.
    • 5/5
      Sort of like Dave Eggers' 'The Circle' but more...more...in a way I found this book more realistic than 'The Circle' even though the premise is more fantastic. I originally rated the book 4 stars but I'm hiking it up to 5 now because it's been quite a while since I read 'Bubble World' and I still want to sit around and talk about it with someone else who has read it. There's a lot to mull over about the direction we, as a society, want to take our recently learned technological skills and expanded communication methods.
