Definitely a tear-jerker, especially since it is a true story. Loves this book and finished it in two days.

I love that this is a true story and based on kindness. It seems weird to me, however, that just Maurice would be invited and not the rest of his family...??

This memoir is so sweet, and was passed on to me by my godmother, who said, keep the invisible string going. It’s a beautiful, true story of how two people cross paths and are never the same. Of how we can all be broken in different ways, but use that loss and pain to fuel a fire for loving others.

“In life, there are many different kinds of heroes, but sometimes you can be something more than a hero. You can be a survivor.”

“And on those Mondays their hearts were sewn together with an invisible thread.”
