“I loved this book! Grief is not generally synonymous with a barrel of laughs, but Matthew Norman beautifully weaves the poignancy of loss with the hilarious, often ridiculous side of human nature, and I am here for all of it. People can be so judgy if you giggle at widowers, but Grace and Henry were just too funny, and I unashamedly snorty laughed my way through their healing journey. I also ugly cried as they tenderly navigated the path to love. In short, I was a mess. As someone whose gallows humour knows no bounds, Grace was a woman after my own heart, and Henry was cuter even than Harry Styles—if you know you know. EVERYONE should read Grace & Henry’s Holiday Movie Marathon. To my mind, this is a new holiday classic. Yippee Ki-Yay.”—Jenny Bayliss, author of Kiss Me at Christmas “Hands down, one of the best rom-coms I’ve ever read. No one can make me laugh (and cry) quite like Matthew Norman, and I know I'll be re-reading this warm hug of a book every holiday season for years to come.”—Colleen Oakley, USA Today bestselling author of The Invisible Husband of Frick Island “There’s an intimacy of thought in Matthew Norman’s books that creates the sense of feeling, as the reader, that you are understood and welcome, that you would also be cared for in the world of his characters. I didn’t just love Grace and Henry’s Holiday Movie Marathon. I lived in it, and actively missed it as soon as I turned the last page.”—Allison Larkin, author of The People We Keep
