The Bodyguard by Katherine Center
funny
lighthearted
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? Yes

4.5
This is almost 5 stars--I really enjoyed it. There were times when it felt a bit like the old trope of "she's not like other girls," which isn't something I like. That aside, it was a fun and enjoyable read. I like the characters and I loved that the female character was the bodyguard (honestly that's the whole reason I read it). I would have liked for her to showcase more of her bodyguard skills, but there were several moments where she did and it was fantastic.
