I loved that this book focused on the connections that people make and how even the smallest connection or moment could have a lasting impact on someone else's life. From the obvious of taking a bullet for someone to simply riding a bike down the street singing your favorite song. I felt like this book was a drawn out version of would you rather know when you die or not. I do wish the characters had more depth and we could focus on them a little more. I like that it remained open that we don't know exactly where the strings came from.
