Lucy likable enough, but her fixation in not wearing specs felt a fit forced. One of my main problems is that I was not able to relate to any of the characters. This did not work for some people but I think it was an interesting way of showcasing the events. There were interesting bits of philosophy, and the flashbacks and flashforwards me the story more dynamic. I found the plot very interesting but it led me to expect a cyberpunk story, not a love triangle for young adults. But he is now looking for Lucy, because she witnessed a crime committed by him, and her memories cannot be altered, but she can be deleted from other people’s memories. A few have found that specs can be hacked to alter people’s memories, and Nick has made a living out of that. Specs are a piece of technology that gives their wearer access to what we would know as the cloud or internet, as it happens today with smartphones. Everyone, but Lucy and old people, wears specs. If Lucy doesn’t find him and stop him, no one will know that minds can be hacked and lives rewritten. If he finds her, he will wipe out her memories-or worse. Now the only person looking for the college freshman is a mysterious young hacker who erases memories for profit. She’s deleted from his memory-and everyone else’s Her brilliant crush becomes her boyfriend2. If she doesn't find him -and stop him - no one will know that minds can be hacked and lives rewritten.Three things happen when technophobe Lucy learns to mindhack.ġ.

Lucy flees to the woods, the only place safe from the surveillance of the ubiquitous S pex. But then the mysterious hacker, Nick Lethe, comes after her in person. Lucy's mind should be safe because she doesn't wear S pex. Marco suddenly forgets Lucy and Mollie forgets that she could ever mind hack. As the three infiltrate more minds, they realize they're not the only ones who can steal memories.

Soon, the two are dating, and Marco, a tech guru in his own right, elevates Mollie's mind hacking from a guilty pleasure to an efficient crime-solving tool. Encouraged by her sister's discovery, Lucy stops avoiding Marco. Yet, when Mollie breaks into Marco's mind, she decides not to erase any embarrassing moments because he already has a crush on Lucy. Mollie tells Lucy she's found a way to delete people's memories via S pex, the thought-activated successor to smart phones and Google Glass. She's shocked to learn that her older sister, Mollie, can do just that.

But when she makes a fool of herself in front of her crush, Marco Han, she wishes she could erase the whole episode from his brilliant mind. The college freshman prefers vintage technology, old books and retro fashion. Lucy Campbell is the last person you'd expect to hack minds.
