Book Review: Five Feet Apart by Rachael Lippincott

Five Feet Apart by Rachael Lippincott was such an endear, engaging and a sweet Teens & YA novel featuring two adolescent main characters, Stella and Will who are both patients in the hospital with cystic fibrosis that fall in love .
Stella Grant has been in and out of hospitals her whole life. Born with cystic fibrosis, her best option for a better life is a lung transfer. To that end, Stella is rigid about her treatment and diligent about keeping the six feet apart rule with other cystic fibrosis patients ( as cross-contamination could be lethal ) .

“If I’m going to die, I’d like to actually live first.”

Will Newman besides has cystic Fibrosis but recently contracted B Cepacia, an contagion that has taken him off the graft number. He is tired of hospitals and meds. He is what Stella needs to stay off from and yet she finds that she can not. Something about Will makes Stella embrace life amply for the first time .
like to John Green ’ mho ‘ The defect in Our Stars ’, Five Feet Apart by Rachael Lippincott is about two terminally ill teens that fall in love. Stella Grant is back in the hospital after a fever that would not go aside and Will is in for a drug trial, hoping to eliminate the B Cepacia. Where Stella is control, Will is freedom. stella has every minute of her day planned, she has lists. Will can not wait to turn eighteen to finally see the universe beyond the hospital walls. Stella ’ s greatest wish is for newly lungs up until she meets Will. He is dangerous to Stella as contact with him can get her off the transplant list. There must be six feet of separation at all times .

“Everyone in this world is breathing borrowed air.”

That, however, does not deter them and their feelings flourish. While there are predictable elements in Five Feet Apart by Rachael Lippincott, as a whole it is sensitive, emotional and dear. Its slowly to root for these characters. The romance may be sudden but given the circumstances, it makes sense and their interactions felt actual. With heart and wit, Five Feet Apart by Rachael Lippincott is a adept read.

Rachael Lippincott delivers an intrigue, emotional, well-plotted and well-written read here with relatable and sympathetic characters that I couldn ’ metric ton aid but to fall in love with. The floor is told in alternating perspectives between Stella and Will and I thoroughly enjoyed both narratives evenly. They complimented each other thus well and I truly felt for them. Both of their situations and feelings towards each other call true and I loved how I learned so a lot more about cystic Fibrosis .
The Book Five Feet Apart is adapted into a movie with Haley Lu Richardson and Cole Sprouse as jumper cable characters .
