Jeryl,
This is a bittersweet novel about facing loss and letting go。 When Julie's boyfriend, Sam, dies in an accident, she doesn't want to let go。 She calls his phone just to hear his voice and is surprised when he picks up the phone。 However, she is not sure how long she will be able to keep calling him, and speaking with him at all may be keeping them both from being able to move on。 This book reminds us that there is no one way to deal with grief, but to deal with it at all is important。 Thus, altho This is a bittersweet novel about facing loss and letting go。 When Julie's boyfriend, Sam, dies in an accident, she doesn't want to let go。 She calls his phone just to hear his voice and is surprised when he picks up the phone。 However, she is not sure how long she will be able to keep calling him, and speaking with him at all may be keeping them both from being able to move on。 This book reminds us that there is no one way to deal with grief, but to deal with it at all is important。 Thus, although the idea of second chances is appealing, ultimately the heartbreaking conclusion of this book is inevitable。 。。。more

Absolutely loved YOU’VE REACHED SAM by @Dustin_Thao。 Poignant, romantic, and heart breaking all at once。 A superb story that examines the complexities of the soul and the perseverance of love。
