Hollywood, Ending by John Green

Hollywood, Ending is John Green's first novel in nearly a decade, and his first written for adults rather than teenagers. Green wrote The Fault in Our Stars and Turtles All the Way Down; this is a love story set on a film set, and a look at what fame does to a private life.

Kai Laramie and Juniper Castillo are two young actors cast in a much-hyped Andy Warhol biopic, Andy Warhol Never Gets Old. It is the break they have both been chasing, and maybe the start of something between them. As the film takes off, so do their lives, in thrilling and frightening ways. Green tells it from both their points of view, from the first day on location to the premiere, with the story of Warhol and the birth of celebrity culture running alongside their own.

Tender, funny and sharp on the cost of being watched, it is adult fiction for Green's readers and for anyone who liked Taylor Jenkins Reid's The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo.

'A spellbinding, tender, incisive, funny, and compassionate story of love and creativity.' Booklist, starred review

'In the author's anguished portrait of modern fame, the most challenging performance is that of an authentic self.' The New York Times
