It’s beyond thrilling to me that the story keeps finding its audience all these years later.Book Summary: The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han “I think we’ve managed to do both, and there’s nothing more gratifying than that! It’s also really exciting that the show has brought a new generation of readers to the books, who are so eager to see where the story goes. “I went into this adaptation hoping to please the book fans who’ve been waiting so patiently to see this story come on screen, but also hoping to connect with viewers who were coming to the show fresh,” Han says. The triangle plays out over the course of Han’s three books. She finds herself torn between Conrad (Christopher Briney), the boy she’s been in love with her whole life, and his brother, Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno), whom she’s always seen as a best friend. The show follows a young teenage girl, Belly (Lola Tung), on her family’s annual summer vacation to the beach.
