OMG, THAT WAS THE BEST BOOK EVER!!!

[Ali · Rating 4 out of 5]

Hacker opens with Vicky and the rest of her Year 8 class (including her adopted brother Gib and his annoying friend Chaucy) waiting to take a Maths exam. Inside the exam hall Vicky notices several people cheating, including her friend Maggie. Vicky has a programmable calculator, and writes a programme to work out interior and exterior angles and areas of shapes. Unfortunately since she finishes her exam in 20 minutes instead of two hours, her teacher assumes that she is the hacker that stole the Maths exam. She is given a letter by the head teacher to take home.

However, on returning home, she and Gib discover that something far more serious than cheating at an exam is concerning her parents. Her dad has been accused of transferring one million pounds from the bank where he works to his own account. Vicky and Gib set out to prove his innocence by hacking into the bank; however this puts Vicky in terrible danger from the real thief.

I loved this book. Not only is it a thrilling adventure, but Vicky and Gib's relationship is very believable, as is the ebb and flow of "tween" friendships. Vicky is mixed race, as is her adopted dad, and the detail of her darker skin making her feel as though she doesn't quite belong to the rest of her family rings very true. Identity and ethnicity are not the most important aspects of this book, but it is great to see that the problems needing to be solved in this story. And as children pick up the ideas of "girls' subjects" and "boys' subjects" so early, it is very positive to have a book aimed at 8+ featuring a girl computer programmer! It is unfortunate that the computing aspects of this book have dated, but I would hope that the thriller plotline and believable characters would carry young readers through.

*spoiler alert*

I am going to admit it wasn’t exactly what I expected but still a good book.

My favourite bit is towards the start. It is just as I imagined, with the mother sitting with the children and telling then the news, it filled me with sympathy when I thought how it happened to a regular family.

Although I did try, I found it quite hard to feel a connection with the characters. I did feel sorry for them, but no connection. I feel as well as the main character trying to prove her Dad’s innocence she also learned how to fit in with her family.

I think the blurb makes it seem the Dad is in prison and I assumed it was for murder or something, but the truth is he went to trial and came home, although he was going to have his trial later and maybe put in prison. At the end of the book, it becomes evident that he wouldn’t have even gone to prison, as the people that actually did it said they would ensure that didn’t happen.

Overall, I thought it was a pretty good book and would recommend it to anyone who wants an easy read - as I read it in a day.

I didn't dislike this book but there wasn't anything amazing about it either. Obviously being a book aimed at a younger audience it was quite an easy read, but the storyline was interesting and it was good at keeping you guessing as to what was going to happen.

And that’s what happens when I read YA. I hate it. I hated this. More than you can imagine.

This brill book is about a 14 year old girl who is an expert hacker. After her dad is thought guilty after 7000 pounds being found in his bank account. For a short while Eric David's system manager is thought guilty by them but at the end their aunt is found guilty and is sentenced to three years in prison also after that she is found wearing a stolen 100000 pound earing by those same children and their friend. I learnt to never steal from anyone.

I actually didn't mind this book all that much, there was nothing special about it, but nothing terrible about it either! Overall, a nice, easy read.

[Richard Tubb · Rating 4 out of 5]

Although this is a book aimed at teenagers, I'm a sucker for any writing on the subject of hacking (blame the movie "Wargames") and so got stuck in to this.

The story is about a young girl, adopted after her parents die, and who's adopted father has been wrongly accused of electronically stealing money from the bank he works at.

The girl proceeds to try to clear his name, with plenty of shenanigans along the way.

There are some touching moments with the lead character wrestling with her adoption, her place in her new family and her friends too. Much teen angst, but well written.

I enjoyed this book. It was a good reminder of computing in my younger days!

[Julie Reynolds · Rating 5 out of 5]

This was the second Malorie Blackman book I have read. Great thriller for teens. Superb. Highly recommend for adults for a fun thriller too. 😊

Read as a school book before my readying group finishes it. Quite enjoyed it.

Such a fun and interesting read. This book has influenced me to read more of Malorie Blackman.

[16avvintil · Rating 5 out of 5]

Hacker is a book written by Malorie Blackman and is within the crime genre.
In the book there are two main characters who are Victoria and Gib and are brother and sister
Their Dad has been accused of transferring a million pounds to his bank account and Victoria is convinced that her dad would never do such a thing so she perseveres to prove that it was not her dad.
During the end of the book Victoria and Gib come to a conclusion that it was her “Aunt Beth” (not her real aunt) had been the one to transfer the money. This is due to her suspiciously locking up Victoria in her basement.
By the end of the book it is found out that Beth had stolen 7 million from the bank (she worked there as a programmer) and put all that money into buying jewellery and selling it in Brazil.
She later gets arrested alongside her partner Sebastian and Victoria and Gibs Dads name is cleared.

A great book and such an amazing story!
I got taught a great life lesson from it- that Patience is great and to never trust everyone!
Also, I learnt more vocab. :)
Thank you to the amazing writer Malorie Blackman, Im looking forward to read more of her books.

This book is amazing and Malorie Blackman inspires me a lot. This book had a surprising twist to it that made me even doubt my own family just like pretty little liars and prison break.

CYBERLEDGER SOLUTIONS SUCCESSFULLY RECOVERED MY LIFE SAVINGS
There is a specific, paralyzing kind of silence that follows the realization that your life’s savings have vanished into the digital ether. My name is Harris Aydin, and for a long time, that silence was my only companion. I am sharing my story today not just to vent my relief, but to offer a lifeline to anyone currently standing in the shadow of a devastating financial loss.

My ordeal began with what I thought was a savvy move an online investment that promised a secure future. Instead, it became a nightmare that cost me $88,000.00. Watching that amount of money become trapped, seeing the "profits" I had worked so hard for stay just out of reach, and realizing the platform had no intention of ever letting me withdraw was soul-crushing. I felt a mix of intense shame, burning anger, and an absolute, hollow helplessness. I felt like I had failed myself and my family.

I spent weeks scouring the internet, looking for a shred of a solution. That is when I first discovered Cyberledger Solutions. I read the reviews stories of people who had been exactly where I was and felt a cautious, trembling flicker of hope. I finally reached out and explained my situation, detailing how I had found their services through the testimonials of others who had been saved from the brink.

Whats App: +1.8.0.5.8.9.6.7.3.2.4

From that first interaction, everything changed. They didn’t just treat me like a ticket number; they recognized the emotional weight of my $88,000 loss. Their team was professional, transparent, and incredibly empathetic. They didn't make empty promises; they provided a clear, technical roadmap of how they intended to trace and reclaim what was rightfully mine.

The recovery process was a masterclass in expertise and persistence. After the long, dark tunnel of the initial scam, the moment I received confirmation that my funds were being successfully recovered felt like a physical weight lifting off my chest. I truly thank God for the intervention of this team. They navigated the complexities of the digital ledger to ensure a successful recovery.

If you are reading this and feeling the crushing weight of a similar loss, please know that you do not have to carry it alone. Financial restoration is possible when you have the right experts in your corner. I wholeheartedly recommend Cyberledger Solutions to anyone facing this struggle. They restored more than just my money; they restored my peace of mind.

Plot

This book follows Vicky and her Step-Brother, Gib, as they try to clear their Dad's name - the bank he works for accuses him of stealing one million pounds. One of the recurring themes of the book is Vicky using her skills in computing, which she has developed thanks to her father, so she can solve the problems that are thrown at her.

Main Review

This book is good but that is essentially it. I did enjoy the plot, however, with the question of:

"What if you had to become a criminal to clear your Dad's name?"
- found on the cover of the 2022 Corgi edition of Hacker by Malorie Blackman

being an interesting one. The Characters are alright and, to be fair, this is just a children's book. The same can be said for the atmosphere. I found the logic to be a little bit off, but there was never anything too flawed that ruined the book. Overall I would recommend it to people between the age of 7-10 unless you just want an easy quick read.

[Alex Horsewell · Rating 3 out of 5]

HEY! It's true I LOVE Malorie Blackman's books (just read my 2016 top ten) and I really did enjoy this book, however, it wasn't one of her best works.

This was first published in 1992 meaning its an earlier one, published 9 years before black and white (the first noughts and crosses book). When this was written she was a relatively new writer, when it came to popularity.

The reason this only got three and a half was because the story didn't start to get exciting until the end 80 pages. It felt like there was a 150 page beginning a 60 page middle and a twenty-page end.

I have to say wow, though. The amount of research Malorie must have done is INCREDIBLE, this book was almost a course in computer science.

The end was a shock. I did not expect that the way.
SPOILER:
Sebastian and Beth turned on them and turned out to be evil people. I really hated them at the end of reading this book. They were very well written characters.

I recommend this book to anyone from age 9 - 11

Thank you HackerTechs for hacking the requested phone and instagram remotely! If you need a legit hacker to hire urgently, browse about ( HACKERTECHS001@Gmail.Com ) they're the hacking team behind the secret tracker i have on my husband's phone was so smooth he was unaware about it for months. I have no worry asking about his whereabouts, all i have to do is login into a portal which is linked to her phone remotely. I can comfortably read her text messages, call logs and Facebook, instagram messages including her deleted files & messages in real time access. It was no doubt exactly worth it and having to know he was unaware about what we did was the best part. I'm secured while i get real proofs of his secret acts from his phone without touching it. ( HACKERTECHS001@Gmail.Com ) and avoid scam stories where you're a victim

5.5/10

Hacker is a great cyber mystery novel that's perfect for children and young readers. I can easily see a child pick this up and become curious about the world of programming and computer systems. With simple but effective descriptions of how certain commands and programs work, as well as displaying real code. There's also a neat mystery, that turned and twisted as it went along.

My main gripe was that the first half of the book goes a semi-slow pace. While I understand that was to give a reader time to understand the complexity of a banking system, it did make the pace drag at points, only picking up once our characters got some new info, before dragging again. Though, it doesn't stay this way. Especially the last third of the book, where the story steps up a gear and becomes more entertaining.

All in all, its a decent novel that I think most kids would have a good time reading

[Eileen · Rating 2 out of 5]

A young Middle Grade novel that works even though the technology references are a bit outdated. It's a fast read, and I generally liked it, but was kind of put off by an early scene between the main character and her brother about her having been adopted while he's the biological son of their parents. You're kind of hit over the head with it and her struggles with belonging, but they come together for a common cause for most of the book without having addressed how hurtful he was. That said, the plot takes some good turns and wraps up satisfyingly for a young reader. Both of my 9yo sons read it independently and liked it.

I always stood against people trying to hack their partner's phone, until my cheating husband gave me every reason to spy on him. I've been suspecting his attitude lately and I really loved my man, so I was eager to find out the reason behind his sudden change of attitude. I contacted HACKERTECHS001@Gmail.Com who was recommended by a friend and after a few hours of contacting him, he gave me remote access to my husband's phone and I saw all his day to day activities and I was able to confirm he was cheating.
