The Complete Summer I Turned Pretty Trilogy (Boxed Set)
During sometime this school year the girls and I watched the Prime Video series The Summer I Turned Pretty. My younger daughter didn’t think she would like it, but I convinced her to give it a try. Within a few minutes she was hooked.
Today when we went to the Barnes & Noble, she picked up this series and asked for me to buy it for her. Of course I checked Amazon and it was nearly half the price. So, I purchased online. I did look to see what the age recommendation is, and it’s 12. She just only turned 11, but she is a reader and we’ve already watched the series. So I agreed to purchase.
If you’ve never heard of the series, it’s a coming-of-age drama based on Jenny Han’s bestselling novel with the same title. The main character is Belly Conklin, a teenage girl who spends every summer at Cousins Beach with her family friends, the Fisher brothers—Conrad and Jeremiah. But this summer is different. Belly is no longer the little girl everyone remembers—she’s grown up, and everything begins to change.
As feelings shift and long-hidden emotions rise to the surface, Belly finds herself caught in a love triangle between the brooding Conrad and the charming Jeremiah. Against a backdrop of sun-soaked days and bittersweet memories, the series explores first love, heartbreak, family, and the unforgettable summers that shape who they become.
The Summer I Turned Pretty streams on Amazon Prime Video. If you don’t have Amazon Prime sign up here to watch the series. There are currently 2 seasons and the 3rd is scheduled to come out July 16, 2025. It’s reported to have 11 episodes.
