The new Amazon Original The Summer I Turned Pretty is based on the book by Jenny Han, who is the creator and executive producer of the TV Series. The show was released on June 17, 2022, and has already made it to #1 in the US on Prime Video.
It’s Not Summer Without You by Jenny Han
It’s Not Summer Without You is the second book in Han’s Summer I Turned Pretty trilogy. The show has already been renewed for a second season which is why this is at the top of the list.
To All the Boys I Loved Before by Jenny Han
If you are a fan of Jenny Han, then you already know that The Summer I Turned Pretty is not her first book series picked up by a major streaming service. To All The Boys I Loved Before is the first book in its trilogy and served as the inspiration for the Netflix films.
It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover
Virtually any Colleen Hoover book could fit nicely on this list, but this particular romance novel has a movie adaptation in the works. Jane the Virgin star Justin Baldoni is developing the It Ends With Us movie through his Wayfarer Studios.
We Were Liars by E. Lockhart
For those who enjoy stories that take place in an idyllic setting like Cousins Beach, E. Lockhart’s We Were Liars transports you to a private island off the coast of Massachusetts where a seemingly perfect family spends their summers. The book is a psychological thriller with romance, and drama, and won the Goodreads Choice award in 2014.
People We Meet on Vacation by Emily Henry
If you loved TSITP, you likely appreciate a good friends-to-lovers romantic trope. Another Goodreads Choice award winner, People We Meet on Vacation follows the story of two best friends who have taken one glorious week of vacation together every summer for a decade.
Today Tonight Tomorrow by Rachel Lynn Soloman
If enemies-to-lovers is more your thing, Today Tonight Tomorrow is a pre-summer romance following two high school archenemies. If you were #TeamBelly, you will be #TeamRowan from chapter one!
Second Chance Summer by Morgan Matson
The season finale of TSITP was an absolute tearjerker so If you’ve run out of tissues, you may want to hold off on this read. However, Second Chance Summer is a great choice for fans of the show, as the book is all about second chances with family, friends, and love.
