The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han

3.5

This was cute & really easy to follow. Belly is definitely a whiny teenager but weren’t we all let’s be honest. I am not going to lie, I wasn’t expecting to like this book at all but I did enjoy the depth behind each character. I loved the complexity and realness of Conrad and wish we got a little bit more focus on him specifically. The rest of Belly’s story felt repetitive and I don’t feel like she really developed at all as she ages throughout the book whereas the other characters do. Definitely picking up the next book when I get the chance & am also looking forward to watching the show!
