If swoony coming-of-age novels are your kryptonite, you’ve probably already devoured Jenny Han’s The Summer I Turned Pretty series at least once (maybe twice). The young adult romance is the epitome of beach reads — it literally takes place in a quaint beach town, and it explores the growing love triangle between Isabel “Belly” and her childhood best friends, Conrad and Jeremiah, who also happen to be brothers.

Ever since the adaptation of The Summer I Turned Pretty premiered on Prime Video last summer, bookworms and telephilias alike have been going buck wild over the fictional franchise. Han’s gorgeous storytelling has captured the hearts and eyes of readers everywhere, and for more mature readers, given us an opportunity to wallow in the nostalgia of our past.
