"A love triangle like this only happens once in a...New Moon."
We’re continuing our summer of beachy novels turned hit Amazon Prime teen shows with the motherlode: Jenny Han’s The Summer I Turned Pretty (2009). Kellie and Daphne discuss the classic story of a girl in love with two brothers, including our thoughts on the show, predictions about the series, and feeling seen by the book's many surprisingly relatable moments. Team Cam all the way.
Correction: they definitely said smoothie and not milkshake at that Prime activation. Not sure if that is any more relevant to the show.
