In the book, Johnny does not die. Lawson joked to HollywoodLife: "If they were to follow the story of the book, then you know Johnny’s going to live to fight another day." But, a twist (yes, another one): Showrunner Maggie Friedman told Collider (opens in new tab)that even if Lawson did die, Johnny would still be in the show's flashback scenes-"so that's why not worried."
However: Given that Johnny and Kate were going through divorce proceedings for most of the series, it wouldn't be crazy if they came to Bud's funeral separately, assuming that Johnny was still alive-so that might explain why Johnny, should he survive, wasn't in the flash-forward. Johnny also isn't present for the "two years later" flash-forward, which is ominous. The final episode also shows Johnny being injured, potentially very badly, in an explosion in Iraq.

But in the book, Tully and Kate fall out over a humiliating incident: Tully brings Kate and Marah onto her show, The Girlfriend Hour, under the pretense of repairing their fraught relationship. But the segment turns out to be about overprotective mothers and the way they damage their children, and Kate is horrified to be lambasted as a bad parent on national TV-by her best friend, no less. Now, Hannah's book differs quite sharply from the series-for example, Johnny and Kate are never on the cusp of divorce-so this specific plot point may not be reflected in the series.
This is where Firefly Lane the book comes in handy. But by the time Bud dies, two years later, Tully has done something so unforgivable that Kate believes there is no repairing their relationship.
This is, to put it mildly, jarring as hell, given that we've just spent ten episodes watching the evolution of a friendship so unbreakable that nothing-not men, not family, not their very different lives-can come between them. Kate replies, "When I said that I could never forgive you for what you did, what did you think that meant?" She adds: "Go home.
