About the Book:

Hollywood, Ending is John Green’s much-anticipated return to fiction, combining contemporary romance, literary fiction, Hollywood drama, and an exploration of modern celebrity culture. Green is the bestselling author of Looking for Alaska, The Fault in Our Stars, Paper Towns, and Turtles All the Way Down, and his novels are widely recognized for their emotional depth, memorable characters, and thoughtful exploration of relationships and life’s difficult questions. This novel moves into the world of filmmaking and examines what happens when private lives become exposed to public attention.

The story follows rising actors Kai Laramie and Juniper Castillo, who are cast in the highly anticipated biopic Andy Warhol Never Gets Old. What begins as an exciting career opportunity gradually becomes complicated as the film attracts enormous attention and the two young actors find themselves dealing with fame, pressure, love, trauma, grief, and the loss of privacy. Told through dual perspectives, the novel follows their journey from filming through the movie’s premiere while exploring the tension between public success and private life, and the importance of finding someone trustworthy in an increasingly demanding world.
