Movie Review
Since she was a little girl, Stella has roamed the halls and visited countless rooms in St. Grace Regional Hospital. Born with cystic fibrosis, a life-threatening genetic disorder, Stella is biding her time waiting for a lung transplant.

Although Stella did not want to fall in love with him, both because of her annoyance at his personality and because it would be dangerous to her health, she found the emotion could not be avoided.

To answer questions about Five Feet Apart, please sign up. Deborah I would say this book is best for teens aged 15-18. There are handfuls of stronger language, a few references to having sex as teens, and talks of dying and what it might feel like to die.
An outstanding film with incredible acting but it's very important not to let any kid under 14 watch it. This film is a psychological horror about a man with DID (disassociated identity disorder) who abducts 3 teenage girls. It is very disturbing especially for kids who don't understand mental disorders.
Allie Obviously you're 14 by now as you posted this a year ago, but if you haven't yet read this, I would recommend it. The book is rated for ages 14 and up. Though it does have some "mature subjects," talk about sex and cussing, if you can handle that, it's a good book.
