The Summer I Turned Pretty

Watched the Series .. Had to Read the book!

Amazing. It reminds me of how I take a trip to lake powell every summer. I’ve reread this book probably over 10 times. I am obssesed. It has good romance, and whereas I usually don’t enjoy a love triangle, I didn’t mind this one. I think what’s to love most about this book is the feeling of it. It feels like the exact way you would invision a perfect summer. Hands down my favorite summer series ever!

This is an addicting book series. I devoured all three books very quickly, the author does an amazing job of writing in a way that makes you want to keep flipping through the pages eagerly. It’s romantic, it’s sweet, it’s relatable for girls. I also love that there’s a tv series out, to help bring the book to life.

Love it and it was so good I smiled when she talked to Conrad and cried when she found out about Beck.

This book was amazing. I also decided to watch the tv show to see which one I liked better. All I gotta say is that it's a perfect summery book with all kinds of emotions. It's the perfect roller coaster. Can't wait to read the next ones. It's the perfect cliche book that you just can't seem to be able to put down. Also, it's one of those books where you actually WANT to be the character. Own a beach house, go there every summer with friends who are like family, have good memorable times, and more. I would recommend this book to anyone, in a heartbeat.

Great story! Kept pulling me back and forth. Couldn’t put it down! ❤️

Wait why is Conrad so much better?? 🤷‍♀️

i loved the book and the storyline

Best book ever I could read this every time I reran I love the story inside it keeps me interested

So I had to read this book for a book club and I’m not even halfway through the book (I’m not finishing it!) before I realized that this is not appropriate for children grades 7 and up. I’m 20 and it’s way too explicit, even for me! The story about the main character wanting a boy to notice her is nauseating and cringy in itself, but what’s worse is that, throughout the entire book, there’s cursing, swearing, drinking, smoking, doing drugs, talk about kissing (all the time), and explicit talk about women’s breasts! The only thing I haven’t read in the book yet (and I’m not saying it might be in there somewhere) is about intimate relations between men and women. This is a filthy young adult novel that portrays a young, vain girl who is constantly making bad decisions and comes from a divorced and dysfunctional family trying to have relationships with boys of another dysfunctional family who don’t even care about the dignity of a woman. This book lowers the dignity of men and women, girls and boys, to that of animals. The overall story of two families enjoying summer together is nice, but it’s not worth my time or yours. So, if you wanna ruin yours or your kid’s hearts, minds, and value/dignity as a person, feel free to read this book, but if not, don’t even give this book a second look. I can clearly see this author must have had problems in her own life and she should be ashamed that she even wrote a book with children and young people even in mind. Young minds need to be filled with good morals and examples that look at men and women with the utmost dignity and modesty and it’s books like these that create the depraved society we live in. Please do not read this book!
