Synopsis

From the author of Sticks & Stones, a realistic middle-grade story with a dash of magic about a girl who sees other people's thoughts in bubbles above their heads. Twelve-year-old Sophie Mulvaney's world has been turned upside down after her mom loses her job and breaks up with Pratik, who Sophie adored. But then: Sophie starts seeing bubbles above people's heads that tell her what they are thinking. Seeing other people's thoughts should be cool, but it's actually just stressful-what does it mean that Pratik wishes she and mom were eating with him? What does Viv Carlson's school project have to do with her? And when she finds out through the thought bubbles that her best friend Kaya likes her other best friend, Rafael-the very same Rafael that Sophie has her own crush on-Sophie has to find a way to figure out how to deal with knowing more than she should.

Goodreads review by Katy O. on June 15, 2017

Abby Cooper writes from and for the very core of the middle grade heart, and it is obvious to readers that she knows her audience well. In Bubbles, as in her debut "Sticks and Stones", Cooper infuses threads of magic into her storyline - magic that brings very real topics such as anxiety, depression......more

Goodreads review by Jenn on December 03, 2016

Some characters just worm their way into your heart . . . and stay there. I have a feeling that's what Sophie Mulvaney has done to me. This irrepressible twelve-year-old has had her home life shaken, with her mom depressed in an aftermath of her breakup with Pratik, a boyfriend that Sophie cherished......more
