Stella Grant has been in and out of hospitals her whole life.

Would five feet apart really be so dangerous if it stops their hearts from breaking too?īook Review: Five Feet Apart by Rachael Lippincottįive Feet Apart by Rachael Lippincott was such an endearing, engaging and a sweet Teens & YA novel featuring two teenage main characters, Stella and Will who are both patients in the hospital with Cystic Fibrosis that fall in love. What if they could steal back just a little bit of the space their broken lungs have stolen from them?

But suddenly six feet doesn’t feel like safety. The only way to stay alive is to stay apart. If he so much as breathes on Stella she could lose her spot on the transplant list. Will’s exactly what Stella needs to stay away from. Soon, he’ll turn eighteen and then he’ll be able to unplug all these machines and actually go see the world, not just its hospitals. He couldn’t care less about his treatments, or a fancy new clinical drug trial. The only thing Will Newman wants to be in control of is getting out of this hospital. At this point, what Stella needs to control most is keeping herself away from anyone or anything that might pass along an infection and jeopardize the possibility of a lung transplant.

Stella Grant likes to be in control-even though her totally out of control lungs have sent her in and out of the hospital most of her life. Narrator: First Person from Stella and Will’s Point of viewīook Summary: Five Feet Apart by Rachael Lippincott
