The theme doesn’t looks exactly as mashable design, some how you will feel like Mashable. The child theme will help any blogger to convert their blogs to a clean and beautiful design like Mashabe. The child theme only works with TwentyThirteen parent theme. Due to bootstrap power, admin can add a lot of creative works to its content.

Review:
It is responsive wp theme. Nice look on all mobile devices.
It is magazine type premium wordpress theme which is free for downlod
It is based on twentythireen parent theme so compatible with wordpress latest version which is 3.6
It is fast and SEO friendly.
I tested this theme with theme check and It passed all the points.
Free for download premium wordpress theme
Fluid UI supported theme
Only following point is missing in this theme:
RECOMMENDED: No reference to add_theme_support( ‘custom-background’, $args ) was found in the theme. If the theme uses background images or solid colors for the background, then it is recommended that the theme implement this functionality.
But still above custom background is not required for this theme so this theme totally SEO friendly.
Cons:
Footer menu settings are missing.
Font color and Font setting are missing.
Should add additional setting like meta tags and meta description.
Extra widget support and management is missing.
Ad insert support is missing as we need to magazine wp theme
Thanks Purab, For your review, I will take care of the points in next release.
