The Summer I Turned Pretty is about the closest one can get to a real vacation without leaving the couch. Based on the Jenny Han novel of the same name, the coming-of-age Amazon Prime series follows Belly (Lola Tung) as she embarks on her annual visit to her family friends' beach house.
But this year feels different—more special. Mostly because of a brewing love triangle with brothers Conrad (Christopher Briney) and Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno)… “I'm hoping that the viewers who are adults can watch the show and really miss and remember a time when they were also young, in love, messy, and experiencing things for the first time,” Han tells Glamour. “And I hope that the younger audience will watch it and feel seen, or hope for moments like that for themselves in the future.” With its gorgeous setting, Taylor Swift-led soundtrack, and the kind of carefree power that comes from knowing you have three months ahead without any responsibilities, The Summer I Turned Pretty offers a true escape for viewers of all ages.
