You've Reached Sam by Dustin Thao Book Summary

An Instant New York Times Bestseller!

If I Stay meets Your Name in Dustin Thao's You've Reached Sam, a heartfelt novel about love and loss and what it means to say goodbye.

Seventeen-year-old Julie Clarke 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.

Heartbroken, Julie skips his funeral, throws out his belongings, and tries everything to forget him. But a message Sam left behind in her yearbook forces memories to return. Desperate to hear him one more time, Julie calls Sam's cell phone just to listen to his voice mail recording. And Sam picks up the phone.

The connection is temporary. But hearing Sam's voice makes Julie fall for him all over again and with each call, it becomes harder to let him go.

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

Definitely a book to make you cry. This is the first book I read after taking a couple of years from reading! And let me say it was amazing! I definitely cried more than once! I felt so many emotions at the same time. Really recommend for anyone to read it!

crying screaming sobbing throwing up. this was so wonderfully and well-written and it made me cry at least fifty times. The bittersweet ending had me sobbing and overall, 11/10. This book is good for a therapeutic cry! :]

Slow paced, incredibly boring. I am a sappy romantic and I love books that make me cry and break my heart. This book had so much potential but just totally fell through. The main character seemed to lack depth and emotion. I wouldn’t recommend anyone spending money to read this.

Absolutely breathtaking. I saw this book on tik tok and have been meaning to read it for quite some time. It was amazing and beautiful and brilliant. It's the first book that has ever made me cry with it's ending and reading it was an absolute delight.

Broke My Heart.. In her moment of grief, Julie called Sam’s number, wishing to hear his voice one more time. The voice that answers her shouldn’t be real. Sam shouldn’t be able to answer the call and talk to her like nothing happened. But he was, and Julie never wants to say goodbye. When everyone else was grieving Sam’s death, Julie got a second chance with him. Their number of calls is limited and Sam told her from the beginning that this won’t last forever. There will come a time when they must say goodbye. This book broke my heart. It has so many emotions and I’m still speechless because of it. It was SO GOOD. You've Reached Sam doesn't just deal with grief. It has love, hope and friendship along with the sad themes of loss, death and the heartache of first love. It’s a story that’ll stay with you, keeping Sam alive in the reader’s memory. There isn’t anything to hate about this one. I knew I would cry reading it, but I didn’t expect it to make me emotional from the first few pages. I’m glad I’ve finally found the courage to pick it up because now it’s one of my favourites. The “Before” chapters are so unique in the way they’re written. In the memoirs, you see a visual of it playing in your head as if it were a movie. You can’t help but fall in love with the way it’s written and the seamless transition from one memory to the next. These calls weren’t just so Julie could get a second chance and say goodbye. It was about Sam, too. These two weren’t ready to let go yet and having the chance to talk to each other helped them move on. As we drown in grief, we sometimes forget that others may also be grieving. This is what Julie forgot when she was trying to forget about Sam. The calls with Sam made her see what others were also struggling through. I don’t think I’ll ever forget this story.

Wow. The book was so well written and is a huge tear jerker. You start feeling the emotions that the characters are feeling and will definitely cry. For anyone who has lost someone, this will definitely get you.

Romantic. Typically love sad story. Sad…. Romantic … but I love romance book so I enjoyed it very much.

amazing…. so beautifully written. I cried so hard reading it. Highly recommend reading this book

Absolutely Phenomenal. This book is absolutely captivating, and devastating all at the same time. the story follows Julie after her boyfriend has passed. she is grieving in her own way, and one day she decides to call Sam ( her boyfriend) and he picks up. This author captured grief SO well. as someone who has gone through a similar situation this story went through the process of grieving and moving on amazingly. Wonderful job. Takes you through all the ups and downs. from the heart breaking moments to the moments of rebuilding her life.

Beautiful story. I just finished reading your book and I’m literally crying, you have made such a beautiful story I really feel like this story should be a live action film 😭❤️😭

I’m crying so much my eyes hurt. Beautiful ,just absolutely beautiful. I can’t stop crying it’s like 3 AM something. Definitely a book I will never forget and a favorite. So HEARTBREAKING this hurts more than a breakup for real. This book truly is hauntingly beautiful and so bittersweet. Absolutely heart wrenching. I didn’t ask for this much emotional damage 🥲😭 Loved it so much <3 -A mesmerized reader who will probably never forget this book-

Absolutely amazing!. The cover of the book already caught my eye. Such a beautiful story! I’m still sobbing!

Great!!. Julie and Sam both struggle with letting go. Letting go and wishing they were still here is explained amazingly in this book. I often dream that my father was still here and how I wish to see him one last time to say goodbye. Great book!!

Heart tugging ❤️💔. An easy, quick read. Definitely some heart breaking parts.

Still crying. I love Thao’s idea of life and love through Julie and Sam. Remembering someone is the best way to keep them alive and this book embodied that perfectly, especially from Sam’s perspective.

Ok.. Just ok.

I Loved this book!. I read this in a week, and the last day I read for hours, I couldn’t put the book down. Made me cry and laugh, I absolutely loved this book. This book made me contemplate life, death, and literally everything in between. I recommend this book to everyone who enjoys romance and beautiful, pure love.

I bawled like a baby.. The emotions I felt reading this book was insane. I managed to finish it all under two hours and thirty minutes…it is an amazing and heartbreaking book. Please read it. I recommend it to everyone.

Amazing. I just lost someone and felt so lost and so guilty for losing touch with them before they died. Like Julie, I felt so much regret and wished I could go back to change things. This book really helped me deal with all the mixed feelings I was feeling. I highly recommend it!

review. nice story!! there's a lot of lessons

A masterpiece that will break your heart. That’s exactly what this book is a work of hart… I can’t even recall how many times I cried reading this. I felt the character in a way I could only dream, they will forever have a hold on my hart as did Sam on Julie. ❤️
