There, they stay in the house that belongs to their life-long family friends Susannah (<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rachel Blanchard<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">) and her two sons, Jeremiah and Conrad (<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gavin Casalegno<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Christopher Briney<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). Belly has had an enormous crush on Conrad for years, and for her whole life, the boys have treated Belly as a little sister. However, this summer is different \u2014 Belly has come into her own, and the brothers take notice. As a new summer dynamic emerges, she grapples with shifting relationships and figuring out her own identity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Though the basis of the plot is the same, how closely does the new <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> stick to the first <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TSITP<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> book?

In the book, however, readers get to spend whole chapters with Belly in Cousins during different years (from ages 9 to 14), interspersed between the chapters set in the present.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the show, some details from earlier summers were put into the here and now: For one, Belly\u2019s best friend Taylor (<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rain Spencer) <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">visits the house and stirs up quite a bit of drama for the Conklin and Fisher kids, flirting with all three boys and sparking quite a bit of jealousy in Belly, taking after the novel. In the first book, however, Taylor arrives the summer prior, when Belly is 14, and by the next summer, the two have mostly grown apart. Though they resolve their issues later on in the trilogy, their reconciliation is sped up to fit within the first season.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1049401\" style=\"width: 1007px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1049401\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1049401 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/shayla-and-steven-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-997x570.png\" alt=\"Minnie Mills as Shayla and Sean Kaufman as Steven in Prime Video's The Summer I Turned Pretty\" width=\"997\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/shayla-and-steven-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-997x570.png 997w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/shayla-and-steven-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-450x257.png 450w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/shayla-and-steven-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-768x439.png 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/shayla-and-steven-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-570x326.png 570w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/shayla-and-steven-the-summer-i-turned-pretty.png 2028w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 997px) 100vw, 997px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1049401\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Prime Video<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Steven_Stays_in_Cousins\"><\/span>Steven Stays in Cousins<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Belly\u2019s big brother shows up at the start of the novel, making a memorable impression with some hilarious teasing but leaves well before Belly\u2019s birthday to tour colleges with his father. He\u2019s absent for the bulk of the major events of the current summer, though he does appear in some of the chapters set in the past.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, in the series, Steven never leaves and is the source of much of its humor and heart. He takes a job at the country club and falls for one of the debutantes: popular, wealthy 16-year-old Shayla (<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Minnie Mills<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">), <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">who is <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">one of quite a few new characters created for the series. The show expands on Steven\u2019s emotional depth as he works through the ups and downs of his new relationship.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"More_Insight_Into_Conrad\"><\/span>More Insight Into Conrad<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Limited to Belly\u2019s perspective, the book provides very little insight into Conrad\u2019s character until he lets her in on his feelings towards the closing chapters. The show, on the other hand, adds a lot more dimension to Conrad and his struggle over the course of the seven episodes. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Similar to the books, he\u2019s closed off and abrasive, hurting Belly\u2019s feelings to push her away, and like Belly, we don\u2019t know why that is until closer to the end \u2014 though, viewers find out the reason before she does.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The show makes use of one of the new characters, an author named <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cleveland Castillo (Alfredo Narciso)<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">who takes interest in Belly\u2019s mom, to get Conrad to open up about what\u2019s been weighing on him all season. After he becomes a sort of mentor figure to Conrad, there\u2019s a scene that delves into Conrad\u2019s mental health as Cleveland helps him through a panic attack. The show sheds light on the stress that Conrad is under and provides more insight into the cause behind the hostility he treats Belly and everyone else in his life with.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1049404\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1049404\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1049404 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/jeremiah-sean-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-1014x570.png\" alt=\"Gavin Caslegno's Jeremiah and Sean KAufman's Steven in The Summer I Turned Pretty.\" width=\"1014\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/jeremiah-sean-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-1014x570.png 1014w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/jeremiah-sean-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-450x253.png 450w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/jeremiah-sean-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-768x431.png 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/jeremiah-sean-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-1420x798.png 1420w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/jeremiah-sean-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-770x433.png 770w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/jeremiah-sean-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-570x320.png 570w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/jeremiah-sean-the-summer-i-turned-pretty.png 2028w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1014px) 100vw, 1014px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1049404\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Prime Video<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Jeremiah_Is_Sexually_Fluid\"><\/span>Jeremiah Is Sexually Fluid<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the ways Han updated the series to more accurately reflect 2022, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">she said<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, is Jeremiah\u2019s sexuality. Jeremiah, one third of the show\u2019s love triangle, doesn\u2019t only express interest in women as he does in the trilogy. Almost right out of the gate, there\u2019s a scene at the country club\u2019s pool where Jeremiah points out to Steven all the girls and boys he\u2019s made out with. Flirty and charismatic like his book counterpart, Jeremiah kisses a boy at a party in another scene before he sets his sights on pursuing Belly later on in the series.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1049405\" style=\"width: 990px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1049405\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1049405 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/belly-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-980x570.png\" alt=\"Lola tung in The Summer I Turned Pretty\" width=\"980\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/belly-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-980x570.png 980w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/belly-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-450x262.png 450w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/belly-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-768x447.png 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/belly-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-570x332.png 570w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/belly-the-summer-i-turned-pretty.png 2028w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1049405\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Prime Video<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Debutante_Ball\"><\/span>The Debutante Ball<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The series uses Belly\u2019s immersion into the debutante world as a tool to drive the narrative and her character growth, whereas in the book, she mostly sticks to the house while going on a date with Cam (<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">David Iacono) <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">here and there. At Susannah\u2019s persistence, Belly reluctantly becomes a debutante, which helps the show open up Belly\u2019s world beyond the confines of the Fisher house. We get to see more of Cousins and its residents; the characters that partake in the Debutante Ball, aside from one, are all new. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the book, a character named Nicole (Summer Madison) flirts with Conrad and clashes with a jealous Belly. In the series, at first, her character appears to be the same. However, though Nicole continues to be a love interest for Conrad, Belly\u2019s jealousy subsides as the two girls become friends: Nicole becomes Belly\u2019s \u2018big sister\u2019 debutante to guide her through the event. With their shared interest in Conrad, things get messy sometimes, but their friendship holds strong in the end.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Belly_Jeremiahs_Relationship\"><\/span>Belly &amp; Jeremiah\u2019s Relationship<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the show, Jeremiah, spurred on by Belly and Conrad getting closer, realizes that he\u2019s had more-than-friendly feelings toward Belly for a while. He even tries to sabotage his brother and keep him and Belly from exploring their feelings. After he tells her that he\u2019s interested in her, Belly and Jeremiah kiss and more or less enter a romantic relationship, even though they don\u2019t really label it until she asks Jeremiah to be her date to the Deb Ball. All the while, Belly tries to ignore her lingering feelings for his brother, focusing on how Jeremiah is the more dependable of the two.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the book, however, Jeremiah declares his feelings for Belly after she breaks up with Cam. Belly shuts down her best friend quickly \u2014 she tells him she isn\u2019t over Conrad. After, he pretends it didn\u2019t happen, treating Belly as usual. Jeremiah and Belly never kiss, unlike on the show (though, the first book mentions he was her first kiss during a previous summer\u2019s truth or dare <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>). Instead, she and Conrad do, and they become romantically involved at the end. In Season 1, things still remain a bit up in the air, and the love triangle is sure to still be in full swing come Season 2.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_1049406\" style=\"width: 977px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1049406\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-1049406 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/susannah-and-laurel-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-967x570.png\" alt=\"Rachel Blanchard as Susannah and Jackie Chung as Laurel in The Summer I Turned Pretty\" width=\"967\" height=\"570\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/susannah-and-laurel-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-967x570.png 967w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/susannah-and-laurel-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-450x265.png 450w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/susannah-and-laurel-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-768x453.png 768w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/susannah-and-laurel-the-summer-i-turned-pretty-570x336.png 570w, https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/susannah-and-laurel-the-summer-i-turned-pretty.png 2028w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 967px) 100vw, 967px\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-1049406\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Prime Video<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"More_Time_With_the_Mothers\"><\/span>More Time With the Mothers<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The show opens up the novel\u2019s limited first-person perspective, following the summer of each member of the Conklin and Fisher family without being restricted to Belly\u2019s viewpoint. Belly has some idea that something is up with Susannah in the novel \u2014 she overhears her mom and Susannah arguing about whether or not to tell the boys something \u2014 while show-Belly has no idea anything at all is wrong. The viewer, however, is let in on the secret early in the season: Susannah\u2019s cancer has come back, and she wants to keep it a secret from the kids so they can have one last perfect summer. This fact isn\u2019t revealed to readers until the end of the novel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The relationship between Susannah and Laurel is given a lot more time to breathe in the series as we see them both struggling with Susannah\u2019s cancer, but we also see the profound, joyful bond between two women who have been friends for decades. Many scenes are quite fun \u2014 there\u2019s a particularly memorable original scene where the kids find their mothers stoned and snacking in the kitchen \u2014 but they\u2019re balanced with deeply emotional exchanges including when Laurel argues, like in the book, that Susannah should tell the children the truth. Susannah\u2019s illness and her children\u2019s coping with it are likely to be the main drivers of the plot in Season 2, for which <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">TSITP<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> has already been <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">renewed<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><i>The Summer I Turned Pretty<\/i><\/b><b>, Season 1, Streaming Now, Prime Video<\/b><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
