Bookroo's summary

Belly's summers are magical, defined by the beach house and the boys she's known forever, Jeremiah and Conrad. This summer, everything shifts. As friendships blur into something more, Belly faces a season of transformation. Will the changes bring her closer to what she truly desires, or will they unravel the ties that bind them? Dive into a summer where every moment counts, and nothing is as it seems.

From the publisher

Now a streaming series in Summer 2022! 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.
