Critics Review

In an era in which more and more people must market themselves on social media, courting the dizzying highs and crushing lows of fame, Green still hopes we’ll find something better * Guardian *
Thought-provoking and captivating * Daily Beast *
Green’s novel of betrayal and survival, trust and love is a fluent condemnation of the machine of commercialization and a paean to art … A spellbinding, tender, incisive, funny, and compassionate story of love and creativity. * Booklist, starred review *
Wise, tender and engaging * People, Book of the Week *
A classic portrait of young love * Kirkus, starred review *
Sharply relevant in today’s landscape of constant attention and the pressure of a public life * Today *
Green’s storytelling is astute, empathic, and magnetizing * Booklist, starred review *
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. Once, that might have seemed a sentimental question. Today, it is more crucial than ever * Slate *
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. Come for the Hollywood intel, stay for the breathtaking passages * US Weekly *
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 * New York Times *
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 *
