A YALSA 2020 Quick Pick for Reluctant Young Adult Readers
In this #1 New York Times bestselling novel that's perfect for fans
of John Green's The Fault in Our Stars, two teens fall in love with
just one minor complication--they can't get within a few 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?
