You've Reached Sam - Dustin Thao
jovial swift
Hello everyone! This is my second buddy read being a BR Leader. I´ve wanted to read this for a while but I never really got to it. My goal for everyone is to be at least at chapter 5 by next Wednesday. This isn´t a strict schedule but I would like it if everyone has the book right now or by Monday. I´ll ask questions every Friday and my dms are always open no matter what! My name is Ocean and let´s get started!

I think I have to leave the BR for this book. I got 3 chapters into it and I dont know if I can handle the feelings of greif my mom died 7 years ago and I dont know if I can handle bringing all of it upbeing felt again.
Im sorry!

IMO its really good to know your limit when it comes books your mental health will always be more important than a book

mental sable
||my explanation would be that she is hallucinating||
mental sable
chapter 3: ||too many lies, even if its small. and why is julie so cranky always? sam is so sweet||
tight wind
till chp 10
||god this is sooo sad. i mean she's talking to him on the phone but she cant meet him, see him or be with him. i cant even imagine the pain she must be feeling. also i hope julie clears everything with mika because they can be such good friends. i also kinda dont trust oliver idk why, he seems like a shady guy. anyways i hope julie is able to say goodbye to sam||
mental sable
oh damn nayana

Chp 3: ||the basement party scene - this is the most awkward conversation i have witnessed||
til chp 5: ||this book isnt going as well as i thought it would. julie is sort of annoying (but she just lost her boyfriend, so i suppose she gets some leeway) and sam’s elusiveness over the phone is getting frustrating||
signal yoke
til chp 10: ||im wondering, during julie and sam’s conversations, r the sentences in italics important?||
signal yoke
finished! ||i'll admit, the book was a bit hard to get into. plus, i didnt like julie much as a character. shes one of those characters that treats everyone around her like shit but everyone still forgives her for it, no matter how many times she screws up. and i didnt think i was gonna cry but the last chp and the epilogue, especially, got to me. im sniffling as im writing this. 4/5 stars||
btw, this book has one of the prettiest covers i've ever seen. its so gorgeous!
