Get in, Jenny Han stans. We’re going to the beach! Prime Video’s hit series The Summer I Turned Pretty is back for its highly-anticipated second season, but everything has changed for Belly (Lola Tung), Conrad (Christopher Briney), Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno), Steven (Sean Kaufman), and Taylor (Rain Spencer) in the year since Season 1’s eventful finale. With everyone mourning the loss of a loved one, the Fisher fam in danger of losing the Cousins beach house, and love triangles bringing out the worst in people, Season 2’s eight episodes take viewers on an emotional roller coaster. A flood flashbacks help fill in the blanks, and returning favorites and new characters like Conrad and Jer’s cousin Skye (Elsie Fisher) help make an especially cruel summer more fun. As Decider’s review notes, TSITP remains a quintessential summer watch, exuding Han’s signature charm with picturesque settings, intense young love, and intimate friendships that capture all the enchantment of a Taylor Swift song — or nine!
