The Circle (The Circle, 1) by Dave Eggers

Insights from The Circle (The Circle, #1)

“Privacy is theft.”

Mae starts recording every second for the public. It feels less like sharing and more like losing her soul to a screen.

“Secrets are lies.”

The glass offices at the campus look modern. They actually just make everyone perform for each other all day long.

Mercer making those chandeliers out of deer antlers felt so real. He just wanted to touch something that wasn't digital.

Annie getting sick from the stress of her family history being revealed was brutal. Total transparency isn't a gift. It is a weight that breaks people.
