Being Committed Book

Do you have to be crazy to get married? Anna Maxted’s heroine Hannah in Being Committed certainly does--and she’s in no hurry to change her mind. Why should she? She’s got the perfect life (as she sees it); in particular, she has a very interesting job: she’s a private investigator for the quaintly-named Hound Dog Investigations, involved in tricky but satisfyingly challenging cases. There's her supportive father (who more than makes up for her less appealing mother). And there’s her long-term boyfriend Jason: her five-year relationship with him is another comforting factor in her status quo. Then Jason proposes--and, without hesitation, Hannah say no--why rock the boat? But the boat is definitely rocked for her when Jason decides, shortly after, to get engaged to another woman. Her father thinks she’s let a good thing pass her by. And Hannah realises its time to coolly take stock of her life--and what she wants from it. In both Getting Over It and Behaving Like Adults, Anna Maxted made her mark as a novelist of humour, humanity and insight; her skill with plotting is matched with a talent for realising the individual personalities of her characters with maximum vividness. That’s very much the case in Being Committed, with Hannah the perfect heroine--even though the reader may want to shout at her at times. If Hound Dog Investigations is unlike any detective agency that ever existed on this planet, it’s hardly a problem: every other detail in this delightful and funny novel rings absolutely true.--Barry ForshawRead More
