The Summer I Turned Pretty

Belly measures her life in summers: everything that matters happens between June and August at the beach house she shares with her mother's best friend, Susannah, and Susannah's sons, Conrad and Jeremiah. She has known the boys forever, and they have been brother figures, crushes and everything in between, but the summer she turns fifteen everything starts to shift. Moving between that pivotal summer and memories of earlier ones, Belly navigates first kisses, a first date and her growing feelings for both brothers, while a family sorrow unfolds quietly in the background. Nostalgic, gentle and bittersweet, this first book of the trilogy is a coming-of-age young adult romance about first love and the end of childhood summers.
