Critics Review
2023 Indie Author Project Regional Contest Winner in Texas2023 Readers’ Favorite Book Awards Finalist in Fiction - Humor/Comedy2023 Eric Hoffer Book Awards Montaigne Medal Finalist“… devilishly fun … A clever, endearing, and funny tale of one woman’s missteps and her efforts to atone.”—Kirkus Reviews “In this quick-paced read, Hitchcock creates characters who are well developed and humorous. She weaves complex psychological topics with a lighthearted, romantic story line in a way that proves to be both entertaining and thought provoking.”—Booklist “This book is incredibly charming; the droll descriptions of Ann’s fellow gym-goers and the mental gymnastics Ann is prepared to execute to justify her sociopathic antics will literally have you laughing out loud.” —San Francisco Book Review “Hitchcock’s writing is visual and her voice is satirical and wry. Community Klepto is a fun read.” —LESLIE A. RASMUSSEN, award-winning author of After Happily Ever After “Filch some time to read this romp—you’ll lock up everything you own.” —Marilyn Simon Rothstein, author of Crazy to Leave You “Community Klepto draws you in from the first page. Funny and insightful, the story explores deeper issues about settling intoadulthood in our complex and ever-changing society. Full of hilarious commentary on gym rats, soccer moms, and other suburbanites, this book will keep you turning pages all the way through. As the story examinescomplicated romantic situations, it doesn’t shy away from hard questions about what it takes to create a meaningful relationship. Hitchcock’s latest is not to be missed!”—Jacqueline Friedland, award-winning author of He Gets That From Me and That’s Not a Thing“Part rom-com, part psychological profile, part redemption tale, Community Klepto is a swift read … . If you’re in search of laughs, heart, and an honest look at the nonlinear path to self-improvement, pick this one up.”—Austin Chronicle
