Seventeen-year-old Julie’s plans for college and a summer in Japan are upended by Sam’s death. A message he left in her yearbook leads her to call his phone—and to a connection that lets her hear his voice again. The calls bring Julie back to memories of their relationship while making the question of letting go more immediate. Contemporary fantasy frames this story of grief and the possibility of a final conversation. This luxe special edition adds a bonus Sam and Julie chapter, cherry-blossom stained edges, a transparent jacket, and a designed interior.

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?
