Summary

Meet Noah - an A-honor-roll student, award-winning swimmer, and small-town star destined for greatness. There weren't any signs that something was wrong until the day he confesses to molesting little girls during swim-team practice. He's sentenced to 18 months in a juvenile sexual-rehabilitation center.

His mother, Adrianne, refuses to turn her back on him despite his horrific crimes, but her husband won't allow Noah back into their home. In a series of shocking and shattering revelations, Adrianne is forced to make the hardest decision of her life. Just how far will she go to protect her son?

Saving Noah challenges everything you think you know about teenage sexual offenders. It will keep you up at night long after you've finished, questioning beliefs you once thought were true.

This story gripped me. It was heart breaking and confronting and written really well. Varying perspectives gave the story added depth. Felt sad for one character, furious at a couple of characters and the ending was confronting in the sense that there are probably people living similar situations in reality and families impacted by actions that they don’t support. Sad, gripping and disturbing and written well. To be clear, my review of the book is of the writing, not the actions of fictitious characters.

A confronting and perspective challenging listen

It took me ages to get into this book because the poor narration was so distracting, but I persevered because the story was interesting.

Great story, but average narration

Lucinda handles a difficult subject very well, at times I thought it was going somewhere I couldn’t stomach, but she didn’t let it get quite there. The question of how this situation is handled in our society, rehabilitation for those who want to get better and so on, was also well handled and left me with lots of questions of my own.

However, I thought this would be a thriller or have some exciting twists and I feel quite misled. Overall by the end I generally felt quite sad and depressed, not what I was after.

I don’t recommend this book unless you’ve got a thick skin and no mental health problems as it’s a tough listen / read.

Not what I expected

Not what I was expecting, I was waiting for it to go somewhere which it didn’t. Interesting take on a sad topic which left me feeling depressed afterwards. I think the narration let it down too unfortunately.

Held out until the end but can’t highly rate unfortunately.
