I liked the beginning of the book. The topic was promising and I liked getting introduced to Campus life at the circle. I also really wanted to like Mae but to me she remained quite a shallow character. And when Events picked up and the spheres of circle, politics and the public were more and more connected I grew concerned and couldnt understand Maes naivite and lightness. And the ending - I didnt expect that! Overall an ok read. Interesting thought provoking topic but the Heroine was a bit too shallow and weak for my liking.
