The Every

In this sequel to The Circle, the world's most powerful internet company — the Circle — has merged with a colossal e-commerce empire to form the Every, a single corporation that now touches nearly every part of daily life. Delaney Wells, a former forest ranger who has come to see the Every as a genuine threat to human freedom, gets herself hired there with a secret plan: to bring the monopoly down from the inside by pitching ideas so invasive and absurd that surely the public will finally rebel.

But at every turn her worst ideas — apps that rate friendships, measure honesty, or monitor our every choice for our own good — are met not with outrage but with delight. As Delaney and her reluctant accomplice push further, Dave Eggers turns a sharp, often blackly funny eye on surveillance capitalism, convenience culture, and a society that keeps asking to be watched.

The Every is a biting satire about privacy, monopoly, and the seductive comfort of being measured — a worthy companion to The Circle that pushes its questions to their logical, unsettling extreme.
