Loop Group is a 2005 American novel by Larry McMurtry.[1] It is one of his favorite novels.[2]

It was his second Hollywood novel following Somebody's Darling. McMutry wrote that Loop Group "though wholly ignored, contains a far better picture of what one might call working-girl Hollywood, about which, by gosh and by golly, I finally began to learn a few things."[3]

Reception

Kirkus wrote "there’s something here for everyone: An affectionate peek at the workers clinging to Hollywood’s lowest rung; campy sex; drama on the highway; and canny insights into the dynamics of family and friendship."[4]
