Prime Video is shaping up to be the streaming site to go to when you’re in dire need of a coming-of-age romance title. Not that we’re complaining, though!

The Summer I Turned Pretty is the site’s latest teen rom-com that has audiences everywhere wishing they had a love story as charming as the lead protagonist’s. Additionally, viewers love that the new release stayed true to Jenny Han’s 2009 novel. Now, they are anticipating even more adaptions of Han’s swoon-worthy pieces.

While we’ll have to wait patiently for Prime Video to green-light more titles like this one, we, thankfully, don’t have to put a pause on enjoying the 2022 release later tonight. But, before you do tune in, let’s give you a quick rundown on The Summer I Turned Pretty‘s story.

The Summer I Turned Pretty synopsis

Every summer, it’s tradition for Belly (Lola Tung) and her family to head to their beach house. There, Belly typically hangs out with Conrad (Christopher Briney) and Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno), brothers she’s been friends with since childhood. However, this summer, Belly wants to put herself out there to get the attention of Conrad, her longtime crush.

Fortunately, Belly’s advances work to get Conrad interested in her. Unfortunately, as their relationship progresses, she also realizes she has strong romantic feelings for his brother, too.

Stuck in this love triangle, Belly must figure out what she wants before the debutante ball. More importantly, she also must figure out who she is and who she wants to be.
