Book Synopsis
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.
How do you move forward when everything you love in 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? 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, You've Reached Sam will make an instant connection with anyone looking for a big emotional romance of a read.Review Quotes

I really liked this book. I cried on and off throughout the book, but it's a great story about love and loss and how this girl grieves in her own way and comes out on the otherside. The artwork is what initially caught my attention, but I'm glad I took the chance in buying it. I really recommend it

I finally just received my book but for some reason it looks used? Like it has some bends and the spine looks cracked? Very disappointing.

First of all the cover is stunning!! absolutely loved this book. I finished it in one sitting it was so beautiful, and the ending was so heartbreaking, but beautiful at the same time. I don’t think I could ever get over Sam he’s going to remain in my mind for a long time.

I am a sophomore in high school & I was not a big fan about reading until I read this book! I herd about this book and thought to take a chance & read it. Dustin did an amazing job with the story! It was a sad story but the way it was written, it's like I can feel their emotions + what is happening in the story! A quick note! This does have just 2 cuss words if anyone is trying to avoid that. I finished this in 2 days! I would 100% recommend this book to anyone if they don't mind a bittersweet romance story! <3
