Read with Aesop’s
If you are looking for a summer read that is 100% pure fun, then The Bodyguard is for you. The main ingredients are sunshine, sass, swooning and swagger. Like any romcom, it has a far-fetched plot, lots of banter, and a predictable ending, but it also had lots of lovable characters, nostalgia and hope. I usually go for more darkness in my books but this one hit me at just the right time – a time when I wanted to be lost in a blissfully light and happy novel.

The Town of Holliston has free COVID test kits for Holliston residents, 4 kits per household, while supplies last.
