“Seventeen year old Stella spends most of her time in the hospital as a cystic fibrosis patient. Her life is full of routines, boundaries and self control all of which gets put to the test when she meets Will…”  - from goodreads

Romance, friendship…Stella’s story is filled with both. Even though she is stuck in the hospital, Stella always seems to find adventure, friendship, and love through her family, friends, and of course Will.

Will is sarcastic and funny. He will make you laugh, smile and fall head over heels for him just like Stella. Stella likes routines, (who doesn’t) she likes to be in control of her life, but sometimes she has to let go and maybe hopefully open her heart to an artistic, sarcastic, funny boy?

“For the first time, I feel the weight of every single inch, every single millimetre of the six feet between us. I pull my sweatshirt closer to my body. Trying to ignore the fact that that open space? It will always be there.” - from Five Feet Apart
