The most noticeable difference is probably the belly. Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno), Susannah’s other son, has always been the fun one, almost always smiling and looking to go for a swim or throw his Belly in the water, which he calls a “Belly Flop.” However, everything changed during the summer in question. She, her mother Laurel Park (Jackie Chung), and older brother Steven (Sean Kaufman) have always spent the summer at the beach house of Laurel’s best friend, Susannah Fisher (Rachel Blanchard) – and Belly has always been in love with Susannah’s oldest son, Conrad (Christopher Briney). The Summer I Turned Pretty follows Isabelle “Belly” Conklin, a 15-year-old girl, through one remarkable summer in her life (Lola Tung). While it is not a true, word-for-word adaptation of the book, this seven-part TV series is guaranteed to excite Han’s admirers, who will finally get to see her most famous love triangle play out on-screen. They’ll be delighted with how her most recent book-to-film endeavors have turned out, with The Summer I Turned Pretty releasing on Amazon Prime Video this week. After the success of the To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before trilogy on Netflix, fans of YA novelist Jenny Han have been clamoring for more of her novels to be adapted for the big screen.
