4.5

This book is tense. So disturbing to think that our dependence on social media and need for validation and attention online could be like this. The Circle is a dystopian novel about one young woman’s first couple months at a thriving internet/tech company, the Circle. It explores entitlement, the criminality of privacy, and what it means to consent to your entire life being on the internet.
