Belly ultimately chooses Jeremiah to be her escort to the debutante ball, but just as the final waltz dance is about to begin, he steals his mom's phone after suspecting that something is off.

Susannah and Laurel don't have a big argument in the book. In the first book, Belly describes the time Taylor visited her at Cousins when they were 14. Belly's parents had been divorced for several years in the book. On the show, Laurel and Susannah discuss the return of Susannah's breast cancer pretty early on.

Jenny Han, 'The Summer I Turned Pretty' author, talks the show's changes and what couple she sees together in the end.

So I would love to be able to finish telling that story the way that I wrote it. The way I approached the music was thinking about how I think that there’s always that song of summer. Different artists handle it different ways, but that was pretty much the process for all the music that we approached. I would say that Rachel and I talked a lot about how I think that Susannah is like one of the most important characters in the first season. I really wanted to show the breadth of female friendships and the intensity of it and the intimacy of it and really celebrate how these two women chose each other, and they’ve been choosing each other for decades. We have a lot of conversations about Susannah’s trajectory and all the cast members read the books as well, so everybody was coming into it with that base of knowledge. It’s a bit of a balancing act, because I really had to weigh what the fans are expecting with where the show is going creatively and find that balance. There is a lot of Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo and Ariana Grande. Can you explain your process of getting the rights to those huge hits? I think it was it was a really natural choice to make. I definitely had moments of going back and forth for sure, because I think in order to write these characters, you have to love them and you have to understand them and have empathy for them. Bely has always had a crush on one of the boys, Conrad, and is best friends with his brother, Jeremiah. Ahead of her 16th birthday, she returned back to the beach once again and they all took notice that she was no longer a little girl. She’s the main character and so it was the most important that we found our right Belly,” Han tells Variety. “Lola had this freshness to her.

The Summer I Turned Pretty author Jenny Han and star Lola Tung talk about getting multiple Taylor Swift songs into the Prime Video series.

And she said her readers had a significant influence in the adaptation of “The Summer I Turned Pretty,” especially when it came to the soundtrack. “Fans of the books have asked me over the years if there could be Taylor [Swift] music and I always of course wanted it but I can’t promise anything because it’s like not up to me,” Han said. “Belly is such an emotionally driven person and a loving person and she cares so much about these people in her life all in different ways,” Tung said. “As a longtime [Taylor Swift] fan, it was a dream come true to have one song, much less, we have five songs like to have that on the show was unbelievable,” Han said. Prime Video’s “The Summer I Turned Pretty” is set to make a splash, and maybe even some waves, with author Jenny Han having adapted the first book of her beloved trilogy into a new TV series — which has already been renewed for a second season. Susannah Fisher (Rachel Blanchard) and Belly’s mom Laurel (Jackie Chang) have been best friends since college, and every summer they bring their children to Cousins Beach. Belly and her brother Steven (Sean Kaufman) have grown up with the Fisher boys Conrad (Christopher Briney) and Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno), with the boys often banding together on adventures while Belly always felt a little left out as the youngest one and the only girl in the group.

'The Summer I Turned Pretty' is officially out! Here is a breakdown on Belly and Conrad's complete relationship timeline throughout season 1.

While TSITP is sure to be the show of the summer, let’s deep dive into one relationship we hope you enjoyed as much as we did while watching. “You sort of, you know, slam the two together,” he joked. The Summer I Turned Pretty is finally out and it’s full of swoonworthy moments that we just can’t get enough of!

They should have come up with a better title for "The Summer I Turned Pretty"—was our first defining thought a few episodes into the show.

As he goes in for a kiss, Belly stops him and tells him that she just doesn’t want to be someone he needs but wishes to be someone he wants. But after he tells her that he can’t go to the debutante ball with her as her date, and even after their almost-kiss moment, Belly decides to move on for good. Conrad admits to it and says that he wanted to give it to her but couldn’t. They flirt with each other and are about to kiss when they are interrupted by a firework set off by Jeremiah. This encounter makes Belly believe that Conrad has feelings for her, and she is going to get her summer wish of being able to kiss him. It was also her friendship with the other characters, and most of all, it was the friendship of Lauren and Susannah that made this such a special watch for us. Which is why when Conrad gives her the necklace he had bought for her, she doesn’t accept it and tells him that he is too late, meaning she is going to the ball with Jeremiah. They go on a few dates, and she seems to be having a good time, but is clearly not over Conrad. She even goes on to ask him to be her escort to the debutante ball, and he agrees. Cam is the guy Belly goes out with when she decides not to spend her summer moping about Conrad, and good for her for that decision. This fact seems to be clear to Belly as well, right from the moment he flirts with her on her first night in their house to when he crashes her date with Cam. However, despite all her pining, she does not wait for him to come around. Because at the Fourth of July celebrations, Belly gets extremely drunk and flirts with Conrad. She slyly confronts him about the necklace she found in his stuff and tells him she has figured out that he bought it for her birthday. As for the audience, it is pretty clear to us that Conrad reciprocates Belly’s feelings for him, though he is not expressing them. “The Summer I Turned Pretty” is a sweet story about Belly, a shy teenager, coming into her own during a summer spent with her friends and family. Any rocky phase they may have had in their friendship had to come from a frustrating concern for each other, which they got over, with heartbreaking respect for the other’s choices.

They're still all trying to have a “normal” summer together, but that proves to be more and more challenging. Yes, Deadline reports that the second season will definitely be happening.
