The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han
2.0
i love the concept- the tumult of being a teenager. how everything that will one day be recognized as fleeting feels like forever- or at least the start of forever. and in some way it is.
still, belly gets on my nerves. perhaps like any teenage would at times? i’m torn between this book being good at capturing teenage emotions and this book having really static characters.
i read it at 14 and felt similarly tho (3 stars) so i’m going with static characters. i’ve watched the show since (am currently rereading so that i have fresh opinions for season 3) & honestly really love the show (minus belly’s attitude & choices).
