The Summer I Turned Pretty

Belly had always measured her life in summers. It seemed to her that winter was only a boring prologue to the magic and excitement that was to come when the weather got warmer. For years, she has spent summers on the beach with her family and two of her close guy friends. The two have always seen Belly as a sister figure. This summer, however, they realize that she is in fact a girl. It is a summer she’ll never forget, full of changes—expected and unexpected.

With The Summer I Turned Pretty author Jenny Han has given us another great novel about the changes that happen as we are growing up. The story is told through the thoughts of our main character Belly. We are able to feel her embarrassment, frustration and love. It is the perfect read as you wait for your own summer story to begin!
