Okay, to recap, The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2 new episodes are dropping at 5 p.m. PT and 8 p.m. ET the day BEFORE the scheduled release date. The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2 episode 6 will be released at 5 p.m. PT and 8 p.m. ET on Thursday, Aug. 3, 2023.

The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2 trailer

Amazon just released the trailer for The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2. It’s great! Oh, and you’ll never guess the song they picked for the trailer. Why? Because there are two!

The first is “August” by Taylor Swift from the Folklore album, and the second is “Back to December (Taylor’s Version).”

And, you can watch the teaser trailer for The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2!

Will there be more Taylor Swift songs in The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2?

I mean, no one has confirmed the soundtrack and score of The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2. But, let’s have a quick chat. First of all, this show grew SO MUCH in popularity because it featured a bunch of Taylor Swift songs in the first season. Is the show going to go away from what worked? It doesn’t look like it! Amazon has a lot cast, and they’re able to shell out a lot more to use songs than some of the other studios.

And, two, the official trailer just used not one but two Taylor Swift songs. I think it’s safe to say that the Taylor tracks will be back in The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2.

What is The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2 about?

Belly and the gang are heading back to the beach! That’s what happening in season 2. No, for real, it’s summer, and we’re going to get another big dose of the Belly-Conrad-Jeremiah love triangle, it looks like, for The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2.

There are lots of book spoilers out there, but like we saw with Netflix’s To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before and XO, Kitty. Jenny Han and the creative team are not afraid to go off-book to make some more drama happen!

We’ll just have to wait and see what happens in the new season, but summer love triangles continued to seem like the plot.

The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2 synopsis

We shared The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2 synopsis, via Amazon:

"Belly used to count down the days until she could return to Cousins Beach, but with Conrad and Jeremiah fighting over her heart and the return of Susannah’s cancer, she’s not sure summer will ever be the same. When an unexpected visitor threatens the future of Susannah’s beloved house, Belly has to rally the gang to come together—and to decide once and for all where her heart lies."

How many episodes are in The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2?

As mentioned, there were only seven episodes in the first season of the hit series. That episode count is going up for The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2.

The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2 will be eight episodes. Fans are getting an extra episode this season. And, instead of dropping all eight episodes at once, Amazon is dropping three episodes, followed by one episode each week for the next six weeks.

It’s a release model that’s worked well for other Amazon shows, and I think it’s going to be great for The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2.

At the end of season 2, there will be 15 episodes of the series.

Which book is The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2 based on?

Well, the whole series, The Summer I Turned Pretty, is based on Jenny Han’s trilogy of the same name. The second season is based on the second book of the series, It’s Not Summer Without You.

The third and final book of the series is We’ll Always Have Summer. 

Is The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 happening?

I don’t know if this is a spoiler or not! It shouldn’t be for fans of the book, but it looks like The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3 is already in the works. According to Midgard Times, The Summer I Turned Pretty is reportedly starting production in June 2023.

It’s unclear if filming has started yet, though. Production has been affected by the writers strike, although we know some shows, like Netflix’s Outer Banks, have started filming during the strike.

It’s also unclear if the show will end after season 3. I mean, it seems like that’s the plan, but there’s always the potential that Amazon would renew the series for a fourth season if it all looks good, it’s popular, and there’s more to the story.

When and where is The Summer I Turned Pretty filmed?

The first two seasons of The Summer I Turned Pretty were filmed in and around Wilmington, North Carolina.

While the first season was filmed in the summer of 2021, The Summer I Turned Pretty season 2 cast and crew started production in July 2022 and wrapped in November of the same year.

Is The Summer I Turned Pretty on Netflix?

Nope! You can only watch The Summer I Turned Pretty on Amazon Prime Video.
