Fast review-Noa, 16 yo girl, hacker...like a young Lisbeth Salander (but towards the end of the book, she gets a little silly and teen agery) wakes up in a Warehouse with an IV and a curious mark on her chest. She escapes and the action begins as the people who had her in the warehouse are looking for her because she is a missing link. Next, we meet rich kid, Pete, who runs a hacker site called Alliance. Pete and Noa cross paths in the beginning and seemed forced to continually cross paths until they realize they need each other to find out about the scar on her, how she is a missing link and Pete's parents involvement as well.

I read this book in a a few days. Sometimes the tech talk got to be a bit much. Left a lot of loose threads-Pete's parents true involvement, Noa, Pete, Amanda? I finished the book thinking that I don't want this to be a trilogy because I can let this all go now and be happy. Anything after this would feel forced.

Good fast read and with Noa being a foster kid, the author gives us some insight into that as well as teen coping skills when it comes to losing someone close to them, something the reader rarely sees in these types of books. I liked it, it's over and that's the end.

3.5 stars rounded up to 4

I saw a positive review on the brand new French translation in a French magazine, and then realized this series had actually been written in English despite the French-looking name of the author. Great, this way I can read the whole series right away !

I liked the book a lot. I see that many consider it a YA book. If this is supposed to define the main characters, than this is correct. But if it' supposed to define the audience, then I am not so sure : obviously YA can read it, but there is no problem reading it for "not-so-young-adults".

So, again, I liked the book.
The writing is good, the way you get to know more and more with little snippets here and there making the plot denser, the way the characters are slowly developed into full personalities with nice and not so nice sides.
I though the first few chapters were maybe a tad repetitive (lots of hide and chase), but not to the point of wanting to put the book down.
I will definitely be reading #2 soon.

Action packed tech-thriller! You won't be able to put it down.

I thought that the story started off really well. Noa wakes up in what first appears to be a hospital, with no recollection of how she got there or why she doesn’t remember. The good news is that her memory is not completely wiped. Noa does know who she is and all the moments in her life previously, just not after she was taken.

Sick of being bounced around from foster home to foster home, Noa decided to put her hacking skills to good use by creating a sort of new life for herself where she live on her own.
Apparently not only is this girl a good hacker, but she can also kick butt and take names later. Noa can easily and quickly adapt to whatever situation she is put in. I liked her. She is a pretty tough cookie.

As for Peter, he is completely different from Noa; he is a rich teen, living the good life.
His problems begin after he discovers some suspicious information in his father’s desk. He tries to research what he found on his computer, but his efforts are thwarted when several mysterious guys storm into his home and take his laptop. His parents seem to have the answers, but they aren’t willing to give him the full scoop. He is warned that he is snooping into something that does not concern him.
He ends up meeting Noa when he goes online to request help in decoding the information that he found.

Noa and Peter are two teens with their own set of problems. But it turns out that that they are both connected by the information Peter discovered. But how and why remains to be seen unless you read the book 

The story begins with a bang and doesn’t completely let up throughout the whole book. I was a little surprised. Oftentimes when a book begins strong it tends to lag in the middle, but I didn’t feel it did that with this one. I was highly entertained and never bored.
The ending left more questions than I would have liked, but there is a second book Don’t Look Now that was just released over the summer. Hopefully my questions will be answered in that one.

I really, really enjoyed this book. I love a good conspiracy. It was so fast-paced and intriguing and the characters were great. Peter clearly had a lot of privilege that Noa didn't, but he wasn't vilified for it, nor was it ignored. Looking forward to reading the next book in the trilogy!

non-stop pace.

What a great read! This book has it all - nonstop action and suspense, hackers and hacktivists, secret test facilities, and bad guys with guns. I can't wait for the sequel!

I didn’t realize this was a trilogy when I started listening, so—like many other YA trilogies, there is no real resolution. I considered deducting a star for that reason, but the story is intriguing and original enough that I’ll be looking for books two and three.
