edit data

I’m Matthew Hanover. By day, I’m just an ordinary forty-something marketing professional just trying to earn a paycheck.

But, by night (and on weekends) I write novels. My novels are contemporary fiction / romantic comedies. I originally set out to just write one novel I had in my head and realized I had more stories to tell. So far, I’ve written three novels, and a fourth one is on the way!

Five Essential Lad Lit Novels

Lad lit is a fictional genre of male-authored novels about young men and their emotional and personal lives, often characterized by a confessional and humorous writing style. It often falls under the romantic comedy genre. What? Male-written romance? Yes, it’s a thing. And while it’s arguably targeted towards men, lots of women read it, too.

The question is, where do you start if you’ve never read

Matthew and 1 other person liked Luvsboox's review of Not Awkward: "A thoroughly enjoyable read from a POV I am not used to – – I read a lot of chick lit and this story is told entirely from the male’s point of view.
