Summary

The bestselling TikTok sensation and instant New York Times Bestseller!

Filled with a diverse cast of characters, the heartache of first love and loss, and the kind of friends that can get you through anything, plus a touch of magic, Dustin Thao's You've Reached Sam will make an instant connection with anyone looking for a big emotional romance.

How do you move forward when everything you love is on the line?

Seventeen-year-old Julie has her future all planned out: move out of her small town with her boyfriend Sam, attend college in the city, spend a summer in Japan. But then Sam dies. And everything changes. Desperate to hear his voice one more time, Julie calls Sam’s cellphone just to listen to his voicemail. And Sam picks up the phone.

What would you do if you had a second chance at goodbye?

Beautifully heartbreaking

This book made me cry tears I've held inside for years and fixed a part of my heart I haven't been able to reach. It made me think what I'd say if I had the chance. Thank you for this amazing piece of art. Won't say goodbye to this one.

Emotional Rollercoaster

I honestly cannot fault this book, I’ve been wanting to read it for a long time and was not disappointed. This books explores all the emotions of grief and has you feeling what the characters would be feeling in that situation.
I would 100% recommended this book!!

Left me broken

This book was amazing, probably one of the best I’ve ever read. It has left me so emotionally damaged, it was making me cry so much that I was constantly having to put it down, leave it a while to recover and pick up again.
I wish she had gotten the box back

Melissa - A heartbreaking yet beautiful story

I was so sceptical about this book being a young adult fiction but oh wow such a beautiful book. Had me crying like a baby at the end and I was totally hooked throughout.
Such a sad story
Narrated beautifully by Soneela Nankani, I felt every emotion
Highly recommend this book to anyone.

underwhelming

I had high hopes but was a little disappointed. the emotions came across but I just felt this book was missing something. I could see where it was reaching but it didn't quite make it. I also found the characters frustrating. there's two groups- one, everyone who thinks Julie et al should have got over the death of Sam (a week later!) and the others feel she isn't grieving correct/enough etc. it was a good easy read/listen but not one that will stick in my mind.

It’s okay

It’s a very sad read.. it does drag on a bit. I kind of wish there was a happier ending for Julie!

One call away

This was a book I struggled to finish reading, I got halfway through it when I downloaded Audible to listen to the rest. Dustin has written such a great book with so much realness in it, it's filled with so much raw emotion, that's perhaps why I had a hard time reading it. I cried in every chapter and I could understand Julie's reasons for dealing with the sadness that's the hard part. But I'm so happy I finished listening to it, I've learnt so much.

Thank you Soneela for giving thos book so much life and emotion, this makes me want to listen to more books.

Just Beautiful.

If you are looking for something that breaks your heart, makes you cry rivers but in the end feels like it fixed you this book is for you. I have fallen in love with Sam and Julie’s story. It will be in your heart for a long long time after you are done with it.
