It's Not Summer Without You

Now a blockbuster original series on Prime Video! Will Belly choose Jeremiah or Conrad?

Belly finds out what comes after falling in love in this follow-up to The Summer I Turned Pretty from the New York Times bestselling author of To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before (now a major motion picture!), Jenny Han.

It used to be that Belly counted the days until summer, until she was back at Cousins Beach with Conrad and Jeremiah. But not this year. Not after Susannah got sick again and Conrad stopped caring. Everything that was right and good has fallen apart, leaving Belly wishing summer would never come. But when Jeremiah calls saying Conrad has disappeared, Belly knows what she must do to make things right again. And it can only happen back at the beach house, the three of them together, the way things used to be. If this summer really and truly is the last summer, it should end the way it started—at Cousins Beach.

This was a nice follow-up to how the first book ended but there was so much happening. Firstly, I cried way more in this one because all things Susannah just got me going. It was really sad to see how much all of the kids’ lives changed when she passed and seeing the interaction between Conrad, Jeremiah and Belly had me hooked the whole time. Can’t wait to see how everything wraps up in the third book!

Finished in less than 24 hrs… I liked the first one more….this one reminded me of new moon twilight lol! I started to lean #teamjelly…BUT I don’t think she loves him like how she’s always loved Conrad. This book has less of the happy summer feeling and it’s more of a love triangle sequel

The back and forth between Jeremiah and Conrad is intoxicating! I love it so much! I also love the meaning behind the infinity necklace that Conrad got for Belly.
