The HOA Has Lost Its Mind

The HOA Has Lost Its Mind

A Mack Hollister Comedy Novel

Frank Delaney survived retirement.

Now he has to survive the neighbors.

After accidentally becoming part owner of a failing neighborhood bar, Frank is convinced he has already made the worst decision of his retirement.

Then his homeowners association elects him president.

Frank does not want the job. He does not want the meetings. He definitely does not want to spend his days arguing about garbage cans, lawn height, Christmas lights, mailboxes, wind chimes, chickens, or somebody's emotional-support goat.

Unfortunately, the neighborhood has other plans.

What begins as a simple effort to bring a little common sense to the HOA quickly turns into a full-scale battle involving overzealous rule enforcement, stubborn homeowners, mysterious complaints, a management company that seems far too comfortable issuing violations, and a developer with plans that could change the neighborhood for good.

Meanwhile, Carol is doing her best to keep Frank from turning their home into HOA headquarters, while his friends at O'Malley's continue offering the kind of advice that almost guarantees things will get worse.

Frank's goal is simple:

Make the HOA less ridiculous.

That turns out to be almost impossible.

The HOA Has Lost Its Mind is a warm, laugh-out-loud comedy about retirement, marriage, neighbors, second chances, terrible meetings, good intentions, and the strange truth that sometimes the people who drive you absolutely crazy are also the people who make a place feel like home.

Written by Mack Hollister, author of The Worst Retirement Plan Ever.
