Ask publishers to restore access to over 500,000+ books now! Belly has a defining summer, marked by magic and change in this initial installment of the Summer I Turned Pretty series from Jenny Han, author of To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before. Some summers are destined for greatness. Belly counts down the days until June arrives, bringing
sunshine, adventure, and her favorite beachside boys – Jeremiah and Conrad. They've been her brotherly figures, crushes, and everything in between since her first summer at the beach house.
But one transformative summer changes everything, leading to a bittersweet outcome that sets the stage for more drama. Now an Original Series on Prime Video! Belly's unforgettable summer kicks off this stunning series from Jenny Han, which follows the intertwined lives of Belly, Jeremiah, and Conrad as they navigate love, loss, and growing up.
For the first time, all three Summer novels are collected in one volume – The Summer I Turned Pretty, It's Not Summer Without You, and We'll Always Have Summer. I loved Jenny Han's To All The Boys I Loved Before series, so when I started reading The Summer I Turned Pretty, I had high expectations - unfortunately, they were let down. Belly, the
main character, was immature and whiny for me. I also disliked how she relied on the boys for her happiness.
Some readers might give her a pass due to her age, but it took some time for me to accept that's just who she was. The love triangle between Belly and the two boys felt contrived, and their chemistry wasn't convincing. I enjoyed the pacing of the book, but at times, I wondered what the point of it all was - it seemed like nothing much happened. Some
characters felt one-dimensional, which was a shame because I expected more from Jenny Han on that front. However, some relationships and dynamics worked for me, like Susannah's relationship with Belly.
The ending of the trilogy surprised me by evoking strong emotions despite my initial distance from the characters. It wrapped things up nicely, and some previously confusing elements made sense in the end. I had mixed feelings about this book. On one hand, I loved seeing how the characters dealt with grief and thought the story was better than the
previous one. However, there were some issues - time jumps that disrupted the flow of the story and a bit of awkwardness in Jeremiah's P.O.V. segments. Additionally, there was too much over-explaining, which got annoying at times.
I went into this series expecting it to wrap up sooner rather than later, but it felt like unnecessary fluff.
The ending was predictable, and some moments were just cheesy. Belly's immaturity popped up again, and the flashbacks messed with the story flow. I spent most of my time reading feeling annoyed, but Jenny Han redeemed it a bit with the conclusion. I loved the last chapter, which wrapped up the series nicely and gave me closure. I'll miss these
characters because I invested so much time in them. Overall, this book was just okay - 2.5 stars. These books have the same vibe as Stephanie Perkins' works. I appreciated how she incorporated loose symbolism, like comparing sympathies to saffron and revealing that wedding plans were for nothing at the end. Initially, I was going to review each
book individually, but the last one in the series blew me away – negatively. It ruined everything I loved about the books, leaving me confused. I'd rather discuss the endings of books 1 and 2 first, which give away spoilers for what's coming next. These baits are ridiculous; I had to read them all at once to avoid waiting a year between installments.
This series revolves around Belly, who's torn between Conrad and Jeremiah, her two brothers-in-love. She can't choose between them. Belly is better than some YA love triangle characters in that she's not as idiotic as Juliette from Shatter Me. However, she's annoying and the kind of person you wouldn't associate with in high school. When Belly was
11, she "fell in love" with Conrad, even though they were childhood friends. This lack of brotherly bond between her and both brothers is something that bothered me. They've been friends since forever, so it's illogical for them to fall in love with her. Neither of them acted on their feelings until "the summer she turns pretty." Belly has been in love
with Conrad since she was 11, even when she's supposed to marry Jeremiah in book 3. She always talks about how she'll "always love" Conrad. It's a wreck. Before I rage about the love triangle, I want to discuss Taylor, Belly's best friend. She's the only character who got real development – and it's excellent. However, this development is
overshadowed by Belly's problematic behavior. She invites Taylor to her beach house and then tries to dictate who she can date because both brothers are "hers." It's bad enough on its own, but when you gender-swap it, the problem escalates. Let's address the trainwreck that is The Belly/Conrad/Jeremiah Love Triangle. Both brothers falling in love
with her is already unrealistic, but this situation takes it to an exponential level. Conrad "always" loved Belly, but he denied his feelings so many times that I assumed he didn't have romantic feelings for her. He had a thing for her back then, but he told her straight up, "Yeah, well I don't love you." I thought it was time to move on, but no way. She
kept pushing, saying, "Don't be ridiculous, you know you want me." Yeah, okay. Then Conrad treated her poorly at that dance event and... this whole thing with Jeremiah being possessive came up because he knew what happened. Okay, let's get back to Jeremiah for a bit. So they started when they were 13, but it wasn't exactly consensual - she didn't
want it. And later on, he turned out to be a decent boyfriend (except for that whole cheating thing), but she never brought this up again. I was so furious when she said, "He stole my first kiss!" No way. It's not about the first time you're kissed; it's about consent. Now let's talk about how Belly handled the love triangle. She kisses Jeremiah, sees
Conrad seeing it, and runs off after him - abandoning the guy she just made out with... come on, girl. Make up your mind already. Then they go to college, and Belly instantly hates this girl who comes looking for Conrad because she ends sentences like questions? And maybe dated Conrad in the past?
I don't know.
Later, when she sees that infinity necklace thinking it's meant for her, but it might be intended for someone else... stop it, girl. Now we're getting to the climax - Belly and Jeremiah are getting married! Wait, he cheated on her. No, no, they were "getting back together" so he didn't see anything wrong with sleeping with someone else. When Jeremiah
proposed after she found out about his infidelity, she accepted because she believed he wouldn't do it again. I actually liked this part; I thought Jeremiah was being honest and would stay true to her... I've been following Han and his partner's relationship since the beginning. Initially, I liked them as a couple more than Belly and Conrad because of
Conrad's brooding nature and poor communication skills.
However, this didn't end well for me - in fact, it made me extremely angry. The entire trilogy's final book focuses on Belly and Jeremiah's wedding preparations, but it's all about the tension between Belly and Conrad instead. The buildup to Belly and Jeremiah's big day is slow, and then suddenly they cancel their wedding without much explanation. It's
a huge disappointment because I had been rooting for them. After all that hype, Belly and Conrad end up getting married in the end, but it feels rushed and unearned. I'm also upset about how the story handles Jeremiah's character after his failed wedding. He supposedly moves on to a new girlfriend without much resolution or emotional impact.
Meanwhile, the focus shifts to Belly and Conrad's newlywed life, which feels superficial. This trilogy is full of drama, including the death of Conrad and Jeremiah's mom due to cancer, as well as Belly's brief romance with another guy that causes more conflict in her relationships with Conrad and Jeremiah. But for me, the love triangle aspect of this
book ruined everything I enjoyed about it.
I devoured "The Summer I Turned Pretty" with a mix of drama and romance, unaware that the story would take a poignant turn. Jenny Han masterfully crafted relatable characters who seemed so real, flaws and all. The flashbacks of Belly's past and her emotional struggles felt authentic, making the story all the more captivating.
Although the ending was ultimately happy, I found it a bit too abrupt and lacking in depth. I would have loved to see a fourth book exploring how Belly coped with the aftermath of heartbreak and her experiences studying abroad. The rapid conclusion felt sudden, leaving me feeling unprepared to bid farewell to the characters. This trilogy has all the
makings of a classic: fierce love, devastating heartbreak, and an unforgettable cast of characters. If you're looking for a lighter read, I recommend "To All the Boys I've Loved Before" instead. As for this series, I awarded: * "The Summer I Turned Pretty": 4 stars * "It's Not Summer Without You": 3 stars * "We'll Always Have Summer": 3.5 stars This is
my first review, so please bear with me as I navigate the world of writing reviews. Well, it seems like Belly's got some major issues with her childhood friend Conrad. You see, she thinks he's treating her poorly, and honestly, she's being pretty crappy herself. Like, when someone you've known since childhood loses a parent, you'd expect some support,
right? But nope, Belly's too busy thinking about herself to even bother. Now, Jeremiah comes along and saves the day, but let me tell you, poor guy's got it rough. He loves Belly, who loves Conrad (who gave her to Jere in the first place), which makes him a rebound or something. It's all just getting more pathetic by the minute. What really made this
book stand out was the daddy and mommy issues that came up throughout the story. And let me tell you, I'm still fuming about how Belly treats her mom. You know what they say: if Momma don't cry, she's got no emotional capacity at all! So yeah, she might come across as tough or strong, but honestly, she's just trying to deal with the situation.
Anyway, moving on... we get to see Conrad's side of things in this book, and it really helps us understand why he did what he did. And let me tell you, his character development is the only one that really got any attention throughout the trilogy.
Because he's the nice guy, I'm rooting for him.
Then I get to Conrad in the third book, seeing how mature and responsible he's become. That man would be worth marrying. The problem is the conflict itself. I've always wondered why they'd plan a wedding if they're not going through with it on the big day? It's such a waste of money and time! If you have doubts, stop planning the wedding
altogether. Just give the money to charity or take a trip to clear your mind. Yes, I get that a story needs conflict, but this is just so over-the-top, heightened by hormones and emotional problems. And don't even get me started on the boys fighting over Belly because it's like they're choosing their social life over family. That's something no one should
do. Whatever the situation, whoever that person is, you always put your family first. In the end, I felt more anger than sadness.
A little bit of happiness, but mostly frustration and disappointment. In the last chapter, I was left wondering what just happened.
I thought I was reading a cheesy romance where everything works out in the end. If the ending wasn't so corny and predictable (I almost threw up on those last paragraphs), I would have finished the book feeling happy. This series is good, but it has too much drama for my taste. It's like watching a Filipino movie – not my thing. Despite that, I enjoyed
this trilogy, especially the first book. If I were to read it again, I'd only read the first one to relive those carefree summer days and remember Firsts. That's just me. xxDecember 27, 20XX As a nostalgic read, I revisited "The Summer" trilogy by Jenny Han. The series follows the story of Belly, a lovable yet naive protagonist, and her complicated love life
with cousins Conrad and Jeremiah. While my teenage self would have adored these books, they didn't quite resonate with me as an adult. The trilogy's atmospheric setting on Cousins Beach is reminiscent of the Twilight series.
Belly, however, lacks depth and development, often finding herself lost in a web of emotions. The romantic component can be dull at times, making it a one-time read for me. As someone who grew up reading these books, I appreciate their nostalgic value. The trilogy's epic tale of love, loss, and growth is beautiful, but not without its flaws. Belly,
Conrad, and Jeremiah have known each other since childhood, which adds to the series' charm. I must admit that my favorite book in the trilogy is the final one, "We'll Always Have Summer". It's an incredible tale of self-discovery, love, and heartbreak. The beach house itself has more character than our main character, Belly. In retrospect, I should
have known better than to expect much from this series. Despite my disappointment, the books were a quick read, finishing all three in just three days. I enjoyed Han's writing for most of the series, but her drastic character change in the final book left me disappointed. It felt like she intentionally made one brother unlikeable to contrast with the
other.
The sudden shift was jarring, and I almost stopped reading due to its abruptness. Another issue was the pacing; Han's flashbacks disrupted the flow and didn't add much value. Introducing Conrad's POV in later books also felt out of place. Honestly, I think Han's writing style is too simplistic for my taste. It lacks depth, beautiful prose, or emotional
resonance. The characters' growth and angst were non-existent, leaving me feeling annoyed rather than invested. **This book review may contain spoilers.** Jenny Han's Summer Trilogy has all the elements of a feel-good romance: a young girl in love, two boys vying for her attention, and a summer house at the beach. Belly lives for her summers
with the Fisher boys, Conrad and Jeremiah. However, things take a dark turn when the Fishers face the loss of their mother, changing everything. I picked up the first novel at a dollar book sale, thinking it would be a perfect summer read.
Unfortunately, the whole trilogy didn't resonate with me.
Book One: Belly's in love with Conrad, but he can't reciprocate her feelings due to his mother's illness. He's an ass to everyone, including Belly. Belly and Jeremiah have no secrets; Jeremiah knows Belly loves his brother but falls for her anyway. Book Two: Conrad and Belly are dating without labels. Conrad disappoints Belly at prom, leaving her
devastated. Susanna passes away, and Jeremiah reaches out to Belly when Conrad goes missing.
They save Conrad from himself, and Jeremiah kisses Belly. Conrad gives his blessing for Jeremiah to pursue Belly. Book Three: Belly and Jeremiah are together in college. Jeremiah cheats on Belly during Spring Break, and they get married to rectify the situation. Parents freak out, and Conrad decides his brother can't marry Belly. Predictably, they
don't get married. Fast-forward several years, and Conrad and Belly are married. Seriously?! This trilogy has a 4.5-star rating on Goodreads? The characters lack depth, treating each other poorly. It reminds me of a personal relationship that didn't end well. I discovered a lot about myself and what a relationship should be through this series. It's not
romantic, though, when such a similar connection ends in marriage - it's terribly sad. Rewriting the series into TV form is enjoyable if you want a lighthearted laugh; however, the book itself is overhyped. The series has its sweet moments but ultimately struggles with cheesy lines, clichéd tropes, and an overly long love triangle that never truly
resolves. The ending was incredibly anticlimactic, and I felt like the main character's issues could have been addressed in the first book instead of dragging it out for so long. Besides Conrad, there is no notable character development, as Belly remains a childish 15-year-old despite nearing her 19th birthday. If you're looking for something fun or
lighthearted to read during the summer, this might be worth your time. I loved this trilogy so much that I had to express my emotions through poetry: Oh, Belly Conklin, how childish you are, Sticking out your tongue like a kid and being quite mid.
Your mother is a boss, but you're a total ass, Pining for boys who'll never reciprocate. I often wonder when you'll finally snap, And live in a shack. Sometimes I want to shove you into a go-kart. Mainly because you're named after my least favorite body part. Thank you. I was going to review each book individually, but I couldn't put them down and read
them all at once. I'm not sure what I expected from this series; perhaps it would be a light, beachy read. But I was wrong - these books were so much more. Ginger recommended them to me, and she tends to prefer emotional, contemporary stories. Don't let that scare you off, though; they're far from being dark or depressing. Sometimes, you come
across a book or series that holds something special. That magical feeling when you read it for the first time is impossible to re-capture when you re-read it, so you try and pace yourself... but it's impossible because you breathe, eat, and sleep the story. These books were that for me. The Summer Series is everything a contemporary novel should be. I
felt everything at once - overwhelmed with emotion in a good way.
It's a beautiful coming-of-age story. Belly, oh my goodness, I loved her. I loved her despite her flaws. So many times I saw myself in her. Her imperfections are so realistic. Han takes you through multiple trips during this series, back to when they were all young, spending summers at the beach house. You truly get a sense of who Belly is deep down.
You literally grow up with her on paper. Her innocence is captured so well. There's a love triangle between Belly, Jeremiah, and Conrad. This isn't really a spoiler. I'm not always a fan of love triangles, but most are tolerable. I find it hard to even lump this series into the cliché (Love Triangle) group because it felt more real than that. It's not about "Oh
he's so cute and nice, but this other guy is so sexy and bad." No, nothing like that. I adore these characters, and their problems are relatable.
Each one is unique, and as they grow older, their feelings for each other change naturally. If you can't tell already, I'm head over heels in love with this series! The main character, Belly, is authentic and easy to follow. She's learning to navigate her emotions and relationships with the two brothers, Jeremiah and Conrad. They're both flawed but
lovable, making it hard not to root for them. This story has depth, with great character growth, emotion, back-story, and romance that will sweep you off your feet. I could read more books in this series without getting tired of them. These characters are now on my list of favorites. I didn't thoroughly enjoy the ending. Nonetheless, I felt deeply for the
characters at the conclusion, and the story wasn't terrible. Rating: 4/5. This book was significantly better than the first one in my opinion. Belly finally matured slightly, becoming more adult in her thinking (although she's still officially a child). However, Conrad annoyed me intensely with his pushing and pulling. Jeremiah was very sweet, and I felt
sorry for him at times. The fact that the entire story takes place within 6 days is impressive. Laurel is a badass and I like her! It's great that she finally ended up with Jeremiah. That ending was so sweet! I kind of expected it to turn out this way, but it was still good. I liked Jeremiah and Belly's relationship until Jeremiah became a terrible frat boy.
They were adorable together! I couldn't sympathize with Belly forgiving him after he 'cheated,' though; I know for sure that I wouldn't have been able to. Getting married at 18 is too early in my opinion, which is why I couldn't understand why Belly would heed her mother's advice. The book wrapped up nicely, and it felt very satisfying. All in all, I kind
of liked the series. It was fluffy, but with a hint of seriousness mixed in. I liked that Isabel grew up slightly throughout the trilogy, and the ending was very cute. Contemporary; reviewed on August 12, 2024 When someone says there's a love triangle, this is the kind of love triangle I expect. It's a reread for me, but it's been a while since I've first read
this series. It had me hooked until the end and got me emotional at some points throughout the book. I'm kinda sad this series is over now (again), but at least I still have the TV show. May 8, 2016; Rating: 4/5 I devoured the trilogy in 48 hours. It was cute, especially the first and second book - the third was less summery, more complicated, so it's my
least favorite. A perfect light read for sunny days! September 3, 2022; the summary - love triangle troupe-this is just two sides: hate it or love it. Unfortunately, I am sitting on the fence. Well, it is kinda a good plot, but Belly spoiled it for me. Chev's system for reviews plot development ☆☆☆ character development ☆☆☆ chev's board have you checked
out my five reviews <3 TEN tomorrow! The rating 3/5!! Like this review for a mention :p Find me on: Instagram: @chevreads - for bookish news Wattpad: @writerthursday Pinterest: @thursdayfrappe Youtube: @chevreads - posting soon!? P. S. Add me as a friend :) I like to read romance novels and mystery stories. May 10, 2022 I can't help but have
a massive soft spot for this series. The Summer Trilogy while enjoyably heartwarming, light, and filled with moments of growing and changing, also has important depth when it touches on lovable, doting Susannah's cancer and the way her two boys, Conrad and Jeremiah Fisher, As I delved into the story, I found myself swept away by the emotional
depth and complexity of the characters. Belly's family dynamic, particularly her bond with Susannah, added a layer of authenticity to the narrative. The series masterfully explores the challenges that come with growing up, from laughter and tears to self-discovery and heartbreak. The love triangle between Belly, Conrad, and Jeremiah was a
compelling aspect, but it was Conrad who truly stole my attention. His tender moments with Belly, like their first dance or sharing a romantic getaway, were endearing. While he wasn't always perfect, his protectiveness and genuine care for her made him a memorable character. The series beautifully captures the essence of being a teenager, with all
its awkwardness and joys. It also explores the nostalgia that comes with returning to a place where memories are attached sentimentally. The characters' growth and change as they navigate their relationships and identities was heartwarming. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed this series, even if it wasn't always consistent in quality (I preferred the first
book and found the last one less appealing). Still, I'd give it 4 stars for its effortless readability and well-crafted atmosphere. It's a delightful summer read that I've already returned to and loved multiple times! Heb (wasn't initially planning to, to be honest). Tomorrow (or rather today) is the first day of the read-a-thon. I want to take this series
seriously this round, so that means setting my alarm for tomorrow! June 14, 2023January 5, 2023This book is terrifying.
Everyone's an idiot. How can a book like this even exist?! Belly's just as dumb. She's a whiny idiot. I hate Conrad and Jeremiah. They argue like toddlers. I can't say more because I'm about to explode and write an essay on why I hate it (also, I don't know if you liked it and are mad about my review; it was horrible and won't convince me otherwise).
December 9, 2021I just re-read this series and it's now become my favorite contemporary YA books. If you're an older reader of YA, you'll think this is silly.
But if you're the right age (13-18), it will really connect with you. August 20, 2023I was a bit frustrated with the Amazon TV series, so I decided to give the books a chance, thinking there might be more to understand the characters better.
Which definitely happened, but not in a good way.
Once again, kudos to all screenwriters and people who can see so much potential in these books to make a successful TV series. As many pointed out, there's no character evolution whatsoever: from 15-year-olds to university students, these people just stay exactly the same - a childish spoiled girl who's confused about what she wants, an emotional
unavailable guy, and his good-hearted but very immature brother (the most boring and uneventful love triangle ever...). Especially in the last book, it seems that all characters take a turn for the worse, except for Conrad, who finally gets to explain all the absurd previous behaviors. Also, hadn't I watched the TV series before, I wouldn't have been able
to understand all the messy déjà vu - why has this become a thing in recent years for both books and TV series? Honestly, very few manage to make it work. The only reason I gave these books an extra star is the summer vibe, which really resonated with me. Every word made me reminisce about my childhood, waiting for summer to move to the
country house, the feeling of going to the beach, the sun, the smell of dry grass getting burnt, and the summer fairs. And the very talented actors from the series, whom I pictured while reading, helped me enjoy it all more. August 20, 2023For the first time ever, I wrote such a long review, but that's because it concerns the entire trilogy - Summer -
started with the best part being the first book, which I would rate 4/5. The second part was terrible, Belly became a red flag for me, and Jeremiah + Belly didn't sit well with me; my rating is 2.7. If we're talking about the third part, who's normal after being betrayed? The book was written on the power of such feelings, which I experienced when I
read it, and the ending felt similar to this. That's probably all the positives I can say; my overall rating for the trilogy is 3.5฀. January 12, 2019This was an absolutely incredible series.
I'll need to get my own copy of this so I can read it over and over again. July 4, 2022Pretty average. Terrible time jumps. Show was Love how effortless and straightforward this series is! We'll wait for season two to get the full picture before making a judgment call. September 5, 2023Spent the day devouring all three at the beach and I'm not in the
mood to discuss it further. The fact that it's ridiculously mindless is what makes it so great Anyways, sending love and hugs, Connie baby!!!
