Episode The summer Belly turned into a walking red flag… our thoughts on The Summer I Turned Pretty pt. 2 Cover

The summer Belly turned into a walking red flag… our thoughts on The Summer I Turned Pretty pt. 2

One of the most anticipated episodes of our podcast (for us at least) has arrived… we’re talking all things The Summer I Turned Pretty. This episode is full of hot takes, red flags, and so many laughs, you won’t want to miss this… Spoiler warning: we talk about all three of The Summer I Turned Pretty books by Jenny Han, as well as the show adaptation, seasons 1-3. If you have not watched the show or read the books, maybe go do that first then come back!  If you haven’t listened to last week’s episode, go back and listen to that conversation first because we primarily talked about the relationship between Belly and Jeremiah, and Belly and Conrad.  Today on the podcast, we are talking about the family dynamics that drove the entire situation between Belly and the Fisher boys, and the way the boys' mom, Susannah probably influenced a lot of their decisions. Did the other relationships in the show heavily change the outcome of things between Belly, Conrad, and Jeremiah? How did their summers in Cousins change the family dynamics between each individual family, but also the way the two families interact?  We’re excited to hear your thoughts as well! Don’t forget to subscribe, and leave a comment or a like! Thanks for listening! Grab yourself something to sip, get comfortable, and join us for today's episode!
