Explanation Concering Books I'll Be There (I'll Be There #1)

Emily Bell believes in destiny. To her, being forced to sing a solo in the church choir--despite her average voice--is fate: because it's while she's singing that she first sees Sam. At first sight, they are connected.

Sam Border wishes he could escape, but there's nowhere for him to run. He and his little brother, Riddle, have spent their entire lives constantly uprooted by their unstable father. That is, until Sam sees Emily. That's when everything changes.

As Sam and Riddle are welcomed into the Bells' lives, they witness the warmth and protection of a family for the first time. But when tragedy strikes, they're left fighting for survival in the desolate wilderness, and wondering if they'll ever find a place where they can belong. Beautifully written and emotionally profound, I'll Be There is a gripping story that explores the complexities of teenage passions, friendships, and loyalties.

I don't know. I just don't know how any self-respecting book lover can see this book and not have to buy it immediately. I mean, look at that cover. It's gorgeous and haunting and somehow bursting with meaning all at once. As I mentioned before, it reminds me very much of the exquisite cover of Marcelo in the Real World--a book I loved without reserve. All that put together had me on the edge of my seat to read it, and I had a lovely copy all ready and waiting for me on the nightstand in the

When one describes a novel as being magical, we often think of lyricism, of rhythm and beautiful descriptions. But Holly Goldberg Sloans debut novel, ILL BE THERE, is magical in quite a different way. A story of how the little things add up to the big things, ILL BE THERE takes extraordinary characters and ordinary moments and weaves them together into a suspenseful and unforgettable story, one of the most unique books Ive read in 2011.I want a Sam in my life. He is undoubtedly an extraordinary

You want a book that brings crocodile tears from sadness and joy, read Ill Be There by Holly Goldberg Sloan. This is arguably one of the best contemps Ive read all year.Read the rest of my review here

3.5 stars I'll Be There is a modern fairy tale. It reads like a fairy tale and it's got the tropes of a fairy tale, though revisited in a modern key.It is the story of Sam and Emily. Sam, our modern male Cinderella, has been on the road with his little sick brother for as long as he can remember, obliged by their psychotic father to live a miserable life, not going to school, kept out of society. Emily is just a regular small town girl, reserved, introverted.But when Emily is obliged by her

Wowza. I don't know what to say.I loved the book. I couldn't put it down. Another one that I read on my phone anytime I had a spare moment. I will agree with other reviewers who said that the relationship between Sam and Emily didn't have much development. But what's funny is that's not the point of the story. This book is a perfect example of an omniscient narrator. Imagine that this book takes place in a snow globe full of people, and you're watching everything from above. You're not going to

This was a beautifully written and heartwarming story. One of the best I have read all year.Sam and his little brother, Riddle, have been neglected and abused by their mentally unstable father, Clarence Border. Emily Bell believes in destiny. When her and Sam meet at a church, their lives are changed forever. Soon Riddle and Sam are sneaking out to go to the Bell's house, but when their father finds out,a drastic turn of events leaves Emily wondering if she'll ever see Sam again. I highly

This was fantastic! I'll be there is written in a unique and effective way. It's very hard to believe that this is Sloan's debut novel. The book explores the lives of several people, mainly the Border, Bell and Ellis families and how they all come together over the disapperance of the two Border children, Sam and Riddle and their abusive father, Clarence. Sam and Riddle are both very strong characters with distinct personalities, especially Riddle. In fact, I found most of the personalities to
