"The Collectibles has an interesting story premise that is told with realistic characters and a style that moves the story along to its interesting conclusion. Kaufman's first time novel reads like a seasoned pro... [It} should please any fan of Grisham." ~ Midwest Book Review
"...The character development of The Collectibles was well-crafted, the dialogue was crisp and to the point, and the author does a great job of pulling you in, similar to a Nicholas Sparks...Kaufman does a great job of boiling down a complex business matter into an easy-to-understand set of facts and circumstances for the everyday person. He also teaches you a few life lessons on the way: relationships matter versus materialistic things." ~ Michael Gallagher (Top 50 Reviewer - Vine Voice)
