“This enjoyable and entertaining collection succeeds in its mission to make the season bright.” – Publishers Weekly

“The Jolliest Bunch is a hilarious holiday horror show filled with heart. His essays make me feel seen, and I’m not just saying that because he mentions me on page thirty. A must read for anyone who lives for and loathes the holidays. Stuff your stockings with this book!” – Kelly Ripa, New York Times bestselling author of Live Wire
“As a comedian, writer, and walking, talking, ‘90s pop culture encyclopedia, Danny Pellegrino is as brilliant, sharp, and funny as they come. His authenticity and wit in storytelling are unmatched. Enjoy his book and laugh your you-know-what off again and again.” – Drew Barrymore, New York Times bestselling author of Wildflower
“Danny Pellegrino’s collection of essays goes down like a mug of hot cocoa that will occasionally come laugh-snorting out of your nose. Wise, funny, and deeply personal, his writing emanates warmth and coziness from every page.” – Jessica Knoll, New York Times bestselling author of Luckiest Girl Alive
“I haven’t laughed this hard reading a book ever. It feels like catching up with an old friend over mugs of mulled wine or peppermint mochas.” – Erin Carlson, author of I’ll Have What She’s Having and Queen Meryl
“I was already a fan of Danny Pellegrino’s one-of-a-kind storytelling on Everything Iconic. This holiday collection proves he’s so much more than a brilliant podcaster–he’s a gifted writer. Emotionally rewarding and wildly entertaining, The Jolliest Bunch is destined to become a seasonal classic. Start an annual tradition by sharing (and re-sharing) these laugh-and-cry-out-loud tales of gay Halloween ghosts, boozy Thanksgiving meltdowns, and the most divalicious Christmas music mix ever created.” – Megan McCafferty, New York Times bestselling author
