While long-time fans of the novels can appreciate the show taking inspiration from the books that came before, Amazon Prime's version does take some creative liberties to make the series stand out as its own story. READ NOW Credit: Amazon Does Susannah die in The Summer I Turned Pretty books? Who does Belly end up with in the books? and possibly read about it? Since Amazon Prime has been billing the show to be a project from To All the Boys Ive Loved Beforeauthor Jenny Han, fans have been wondering whether the show has literary origins or is its own thing altogether. It's the coming-of-age story we would have loved to experience but thankfully we can see it play out onscreen. Surrounded by Laurel's friend Susannah ( Rachel Blanchard), her sons, Jeremiah ( Gavin Casalegno) and Conrad ( Christopher Briney), and another teen named Cam ( David Iacono), Belly suddenly finds herself in an emotional love story she never saw coming. But when she reunites with old family friends, things get interesting. The eight-episode series follows Isabel "Belly" Conklin ( Lola Tung) as she spends the summer with her mother Laurel ( Jackie Chung) and brother Steven ( Sean Kaufman) at Cousin's Beach. If you've been paying attention to shows on Amazon Prime this month, then you may have heard about their newest show, The Summer I Turned Pretty.
