trilogy, follows 15-year-old Isabel “Belly” Conklin over her first post-pubescent summer at Cousins Beach, a fictional place that’s essentially the platonic ideal of a New England shore town. The series, based on the first book in Jenny Han’s best-selling Y.A. Prime Video’s new series, The Summer I Turned Pretty, meets this seasonal all-ages tilt toward romanticism with all the satisfying ease of a shimmering open pool.
The Summer Fantasy Industrial Complex is predicated on that yawning gap between what we think the months between June and August are supposed to be like-based on pop culture, our cooler friends’ Instagram Stories, cherry-picked childhood memories-and how the season actually unspools in our real, painfully un-soundtracked lives.
