4 stars

I don't know where to start my review with Saving Beck, I should probably say what an emotional ride, it was so intense.
This story is told from two POVs, Natalie  and her son, Beck.Both characters are struggling with the death of their favorite person.Her husband and his dad.Natalie is unable to cope with daily tasks she spends her days comforted by Xanax.Beck is a high school teenager and responsible for his two youngest siblings.This and some other things will be the reasons why he will have his own downward spiral.
It was sad and heartbreaking reading about Beck's situation and how his life changed.
 I would say this is a book you need to be in mood to read it, but I would also say it's a must read!It's a powerful story which deals with some really serious issues!
