And if you were at the hospital in the CF/Respiratory ward you were usually interrogated by a nurse in advance of entering a CF patient's room. And of course resemblances with John Green’s “Fault in our stars” ( they caged me after reading this book and sent me to rehab for ugly criers! It's such a bummer that this book has one of the prettiest covers that I've ever seen, yet it has the MOST CRAPPY AND CLICHÉ PLOT ever!

What if they could steal back just a little bit of the space their broken lungs have stolen from them? En A Dos Metros De Ti nos encontramos con la historia de Stella y Will, dos chicos que tienen fibrosis quística y que han vivido la mitad de sus vidas en hospitales y en medio de tratamientos para ganar un poco más de tiempo. I was totally taken with this story and this tale of these two star-crossed lovers, Stella and Will as they totally consumed my thoughts and my heart. Stella 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. My husband begged me to stop because all the neighborhood’s army of dogs joined me and began howling.

I didn’t know it was possible to want something so bad you could feel it in your arms and your legs and in every breath you take. One thing I continue to struggle with understanding is why reality is not enough for these types of books? The authors of this book could’ve written a love story between a CFer and a healthy person (a relationship that would have conflicts of its own), or simply a story that doesn’t revolve around CF but starring a character with CF! 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.

Each and every person with CF experiences this disease in our own way, from its severity to our symptoms, to how we feel about the disease and its impact on our lives.Don't even get me started with these bidimensional characters (they're more bland than water, trust me).

Stella Grant likes to be control – even though her totally out-of-control lungs have sent her in and out of the hospital most of her life. Finally let me recommend a book that two years ago made me think of Scott (even though it's not CF related).Maybe it lost its emotional touch when it is adapted to the novel like something got lost in translation. 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. Now a major motion picture on Netflix starring Cole Sprouse (Riverdale's Jughead) and Haley Lu Richardson (The Edge of Seventeen and Recovery Road)!

the movie: I liked the book ending more, because we got to see an epilogue and I really needed that epilogue after watching the movie! In Five Feet Apart our teens do all of the following: run up and down 3-5 flights of stairs, laugh, swim, cry and a multitude of other things. I mean just think about it, they both had to deal with CF their entire lives and they might have friends at school and outside of the hospital, but it’s definitely realistic that they would get to know other patients in their hospital ward. Just because you’re terminally ill doesn’t mean you’re gonna learn a bunch of valuable lessons about life or that you’re going to be deeper and more intelligent.Stella finds out that Will is NOT doing his treatments, she decides to download the app that she created on Will's phone, Stella and Will facetime everyday to take their medicine together. I never really understood what cystic fibrosis was, but after reading Five Feet Apart it gave me a clear understanding of what it really is. If you’re still here and you wanna read a book that portrays illness and dying honestly and accurately: grab Me, and Earl, and the dying girl by Jesse Andrews).
