About this listen

You've Found Oliver, Dustin Thao's heart-wrenching companion to the TikTok sensation and bestselling You've Reached Sam is an emotional rollercoaster. A compelling love story filled with yearning, romance and a touch of magic.

'No one writes romance like Dustin Thao and this one is a beauty.' — Kathleen Glasgow, author of Girl in Pieces

It’s been a year since his best friend, Sam, died. Even though Oliver knows he won’t get a response, he can’t stop texting Sam’s number, especially as the anniversary of his death approaches.

Then one day he accidentally hits the call button, and someone picks up.

Sam’s number was reassigned and a stranger has been receiving Oliver’s private and vulnerable messages for months. But Ben, a college student in Seattle, won’t remain a stranger for long. When they finally meet in person, their spark is undeniable.

Everything seems perfect until Oliver discovers something impossible and strange that will keep them from being together . . .

Thao skillfully marries a quiet, elegiac novel about grief with a provocative sf conceit. A poignant and moving read
A touch of magic, first love and loss, this is the story of romance and heartache.
A captivating and gorgeously written story about longing, destiny, and the infinite possibilities, and versions, of love. No one writes romance like Dustin Thao and this one is a beauty. (Kathleen Glasgow, #1 bestselling author of Girl in Pieces)
