  • On Tuesday, author John Green announced his new novel, Hollywood, Ending, marking his first book in nearly 10 years and a shift toward adult fiction.
  • Green, 48, previously authored young adult favorites like The Fault in Our Stars and Looking for Alaska; during a 2024 Stanford University appearance, he said he felt more "emotionally and intellectually" distant from that age group.
