Noah’s Rainy Day by Sandra Brannan

Noah’s Rainy Day is an amazing and well written book. I was intrigue by this book once I read the summary. This was the first book I have read by Sandra Brannan. Noah’s Rainy Day is the fourth book in the Liv series. Even though, I had not read the first three books, I was able to follow the characters.
Noah is a 12 year old boy with cerebral palsy. Although, Noah is not able to speak or use his appendages, his mind is fully functioning. His beloved Aunt Liv, is an FBI Agent, who Noah likes to help solve cases. When Little Max is kidnapped his father, Maximillian Bennett Williams, III, request Liv to be on the case even though she is three weeks out of graduation from Quantico.
My favorite relationships is that of Noah and his sister Emma and Noah and his Aunt Liv. Noah’s and Emma, can communicate using a five finger system, where each finger and knuckle represents a different letter. It was amazing to see how two kids found a way to communicate without using verbal queues.
During the earlier part of the book, when it was eluded to who kidnapped little Max, I felt too much was given away. However, the reasoning behind this made sense near the end of the book. Noah solves the case of missing Little Max before the FBI. He is so adamant about sharing the location of the boy and making sure the boy is safe, he goes to extreme measures to get his families attention.

Noah’s Rainy Day was so well written, I could understand and empathize with Noah’s frustration when he had solved the case but no one was understanding what he was trying to say. I felt myself yelling, in my head, in frustration at his family to understand Noah. I think, most avid readers have had this experience at least once when reading a book.
The book was action packed. I could not put the book down. I am looking forward to reading the rest of the books in the Liv Series. A very well written book, that everyone should read.
