About this listen

Belly has an unforgettable summer in this stunning start to the Summer I Turned Pretty series from the New York Times bestselling author of To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before (now a major motion picture!), Jenny Han.

Some summers are just destined to be pretty.

Belly measures her life in summers. Everything good, everything magical happens between the months of June and August. Winters are simply a time to count the weeks until the next summer, a place away from the beach house, away from Susannah, and most importantly, away from Jeremiah and Conrad. They are the boys that Belly has known since her very first summer—they have been her brother figures, her crushes, and everything in between. But one summer, one wonderful and terrible summer, the more everything changes, the more it all ends up just the way it should have been all along.

I enjoyed the book, it had a cruisey storyline, but lacked a little substance. The narrators voice really suited the character though.

I listened to this after my daughter binge read the book - she hasn’t read a book in years and this one she couldn’t put down. Now she is onto her next book and asking for more books for her birthday. It is a great teen read - I enjoyed listening to it

Had my 14 year old reading books again

I love that Belly reads this. I understand the show so much better now. I didn’t like the show and thought I’d give the book a go and it’s definitely better.

Ahhh!

Fun, cute and innocent story that makes you forget about reality. Brings you back to childhood and the days were life was simple.
