Karen’s Library's Reviews > The Every

The thing I found most interesting about The Every was that the hardback (offered in 32 different covers) would only be available in independent stores. I have to say, I loved this marketing idea. Also, the hardback would be released six weeks before the paperback version, and the paperbacks would be the only print copies available on Amazon, in large chain bookstores, etc.

Well, this stunt worked on me and I ran off to my local independent bookshop and bought two different copies for my bookshelf.

While reading this dystopian sci-fi tech sequel to The Circle, by the end I had chills of a modern 1984. In The Every, which is meant to be satirical but still felt scary nonetheless, the protagonist from The Circle continues with the “sharing is caring” theme but takes it to the gazillionth degree and creates The Every.

Enter Delaney who comes into the Every with the plan to sabotage it all.

I was laughing out loud at the craziness of the ideas that were being spewed out and embraced by the Everyones.

I throughly enjoyed this book and still love my 2 pretty hardcopies! They’re pretty chonky at just less than 600 pages so my arms got a great workout.
