Instant #1 New York Times bestseller!

Bestselling author John Green makes his much-anticipated return to fiction with a behind-the-scenes Hollywood love story about finding someone to trust in an untrustworthy world. Signed edition

“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


For rising talents Kai Laramie and Juniper Castillo, being cast in the buzzy biopic Andy Warhol Never Gets Old is the opportunity they’ve both been waiting for. They’re on the verge of breaking out, and maybe even falling in love. Soon, the movie is blowing up, and so are their lives—in exciting, but also terrifying, ways.

John Green artfully blends a behind-the-scenes Hollywood love story with an unflinching examination of the insatiable attention economy. Told through dual points of view, the novel brilliantly juxtaposes the on-screen study of Warhol’s life at the dawn of celebrity culture with the intimate struggles of two young people figuring out who they are, both together and alone.

Tender, heartbreaking, and shrewdly funny, this is a story as only Green can tell it. Hollywood, Ending is a deeply observed novel about the tension between a public and a private life, and the audacity to pursue the kind of love we all deserve.

Praise for Hollywood, Ending:

#1 New York Times Bestseller • #1 USA Today Bestseller • #1 Indie Bestseller • #1 Globe & Mail Bestseller

“Green’s a tender writer whose abiding concern through all his work is what it takes to remain decent in a ruthless and impersonal world.... Today, it is more crucial than ever.” ―Slate

“A characteristically quick-witted, emotive story about falling in love, the machinations of the film industry, the pitfalls of celebrity status, and the indelible value of making art.” —The Boston Globe

“A tale loaded with showbiz lore and American obsession with celebrity.” —TIME

“A love story but also an interrogation of modern stardom, art and the struggle to be real in a social media-fueled world of artifice and performance.... Breathtaking.” ―US Weekly

“A classic portrait of young love.” —Kirkus, starred review

“In the author’s anguished portrait of modern fame, the most challenging performance is that of an authentic self.… Kai emerges vividly on the page. Green depicts the young man’s bewilderment with radiant empathy.” ―The New York Times

“A triumphant return.” —PureWow

“Thought-provoking and captivating.” —Daily Beast

“In an era in which more and more people must market themselves on social media, Green still hopes we’ll find something better.” —Guardian

“A fascinating glimpse behind the scenes at the Hollywood machine and its vast apparatus, as well as the betrayals both small and large that keep it running.” —Bookreporter

“It’s been nine years since Green last published fiction, but this story about what fame does to the people inside it is well worth the wait.” —Good Housekeeping

“Reflections on Warhol’s profound grasp and exploitation of the vicissitudes of celebrity and the commodification of art and life shape the novel’s provocative and suspenseful conflicts.... A spellbinding, tender, incisive, funny, and compassionate story of love and creativity.” —Booklist, starred review
