Shelves: contemporary
-super cringe and insufferable
-it killed my remaining brain cells
-the show was better because it showed interesting subplots, and Belly gets called out on her continuous bullshit
-Belly is the worst fictional friend I have ever read about, she's not a backstabber but being a jealous friend ain't it
-I only read this for Conrad
-will probably get the ick and stop hyperfixating over the show which is upsetting

One thing Jenny Han knows how to do is write a book that I will ultimately love by the time I get to the third chapter. It is such a relaxing and calming thing about how Jenny Han writes. Her books are so fast paced that reading her books makes me feel like I’m playing a movie in my head. The Summer I Turned Pretty was just the book I needed to get me out of my reading slump. I finished To All The Boys I’ve Loved a couple of months ago and I cried reading every book, and I mean every book. The S ...more

im sooo disappointed ☹️ i thought this book would be amazing start to finish because of how hyped up it is. while the only reason i read this was to watch the upcoming show i still wanted to have a good time. i was wrong. belly was quite intolerable and moody for 90% of the book making it so hard for me to pick up again after i stopped reading. i did enjoy the ending tho i thought the character development was nice. jeremiah has my heart. i wanted more from this book; yes it is a simple ya roman ...more

A ver, esperaba que fuera peor.
El libro no es terrible, solo no pasa nada, lit no pasa nada importante hasta las últimas 50 páginas. Hay muchas cosas que sobran. Pero se leer extremadamente rápido. Los capítulos son super cortos y ni se sentía que estaba leyendo, es de estos libros que si no tienes nada que hacer te los puedes terminar en una tarde, fácil.
Ahora, se nota que los protagonistas son unos bebes, es que las reacciones, su manera de sentir, sus motivación e intereses, todo lo hac

After rereading the book got a third time, I am still team Conrad. “You’re the only boy I’ve ever thought about. My whole life, it’s always been you.”

This book is also the perfect summer read and after watching the series on Amazon Prime, I had to read the books another time!!

I think I would have loved this book if I had read it years ago when I read To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before… but sadly I didn’t love this…
I felt like nothing happened and I’m not that impressed with Conrad at the moment…🤔

Me costó un montón terminarlo porque la protagonista me parece una insoportable. La segunda mitad estuvo más interesante. Voy a tratar de continuar con la trilogía para ver la serie.
