Now a major motion picture on Netflix starring Cole Sprouse (Riverdale's Jughead) and Haley Lu Richardson (The Edge of Seventeen and Recovery Road)! In this moving story that's perfect for fans of John Green, Nicola Yoon, David Levithan and Jenny Han, two teens fall in love with just one minor complication - they can't get within five feet of each other without risking their lives. ----------------------------------------------------- Can you love someone you can never touch? 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. 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. Six feet apart. No exceptions. The only thing Will Newman wants to be in control of is getting out of this hospital. He couldn't care less about his treatments, or a fancy new clinical drug trial. 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. Will's exactly what Stella needs to stay away from. If he so much as breathes on Stella she could lose her spot on the transplant list. Either one of them could die. The only way to stay alive is to stay apart. But suddenly six feet doesn't feel like safety. It feels like punishment. What if they could steal back just a little bit of the space their broken lungs have stolen from them? Would five feet apart really be so dangerous if it stops their hearts from breaking too? ------------------------------------------- Don't miss the new bestseller from Rachael Lippincott and Mikki Daughtry, All This Time, publishing September 2020 and available for pre-order now!

Sammendrag: "Five Feet Apart" følger teenagere Stella Grant og Will Newman, der begge er indlagt med cystisk fibrose. For at undgå livsfarlige infektioner skal patienter med sygdommen holde mindst seks fods afstand til hinanden. Stella lever disciplineret og følger alle regler for at komme i betragtning til en lungetransplantation, mens Will er oprørsk og skeptisk over for behandlingen. Da de to mødes, opstår en stærk tiltrækning, men enhver fysisk nærhed kan være dødelig. De begynder at lære hinanden at kende på afstand og finder måder at være sammen på uden at røre hinanden. Historien undersøger kærlighed, kontrol, frihed og risiko, mens de må beslutte, hvor meget de vil satse for at få bare en smule mere tid sammen.
