A review by stlkatiek
The Every by Dave Eggers

dark medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

Taking place 10 years after the events of The Circle, this story features two people trying to take down an evil corporation (a hybrid of facebook, google, and amazon) from the inside. Although a bit meandering at times, it was clever satire of groupthink corporate dynamics and chilling prequel to some of the more haunting Black Mirror episodes. The irony of reading this on an android (Google) device, on a library app tracking my reading speed and progress, then immediately logging onto another (Amazon-owned) app to track and share my thoughts is not going unnoticed...

Read it Because:
I loved The Circle

Reminded me of:
Black Mirror (multiple episodes)
