Just when Isabel thinks she had everything mapped out, life proves that when it comes to love, you can never have all the answers . . . Han's writing career took off with her debut novel, Shug, published in 2006. However, she gained widespread recognition and a devoted following with her immensely popular Summer I Turned Pretty trilogy, consisting of The Summer I Turned Pretty (2009), It's Not Summer Without You (2010), and We'll Always Have Summer (2011). This series catapulted Han into the spotlight and solidified her as a prominent figure in the young adult literature genre. We see much more of Taylor in It’s Not Summer Without You. How would you characterize Belly’s friendship with Taylor? What role does Taylor play in Belly’s life? Where do you see their friendship going from here—do you imagine them staying friends like Laurel and Susannah or have they already outgrown each other? We see Belly’s relationship with her mother evolve throughout the three books in the series. In We’ll Always Have Summer, we’re privy to a compelling power dynamic between mother and daughter that hasn’t been as evident in the past. What is this power dynamic, and to what do you attribute it? How would you characterize the nature of Belly and Laurel’s relationship?
When did you start to think there might be something seriously wrong with Susannah, and/or the family’s situation? What were the signs?Isabel has only ever loved two boys, Conrad and Jeremiah Fisher. She's grown up with them, and can't imagine life without them. One broke her heart, the other made her happier than she ever thought she'd be. But each brother is keeping a secret from Isabel, and this summer she must choose between the Fisher boys, once and for all. Which brother will it be? As Belly’s now an adult and her relationship is deepening, there’s a betrayal along with lots of family drama that complicate the lives of the two families at the heart of the story.
As the summers go on, Belly has to choose between two brothers who love her as she comes to the realization that she will have to break one of their hearts. These nine books are popular Young Adult romance books with storylines, themes and/or settings similar to The Summer I Turned Pretty: Whereas The Summer I Turned Pretty took place exclusively at Cousins, the events of It’s Not Summer Without You take place in several different settings; Cousins, Belly’s house, Jeremiah and Conrad’s house, and Conrad’s college. Furthermore, the house at Cousins has a very different feel this summer, than it has for the characters in the past. How important is setting, in fiction? How important is setting to this story? Unavailable, aloof Conrad - who she's been in love with forever - and friendly, relaxed Jeremiah, the only one who's ever really paid her any attention.

Like in The Summer I Turned Pretty, this next book in the series ends with a mysterious preview of what’s to come. “A couple of years later” gives us a snapshot of Belly’s wedding day. Whom do you think she will marry? Why does Jenny Han conclude the novel in this way? Immerse yourself in the enchanting world of young love, self-discovery, and bittersweet moments with the remarkable Summer I Turned Pretty trilogy by Jenny Han. This captivating series, consisting of three beautifully written novels, will transport you to the sun-kissed beaches and emotional rollercoasters of Belly Conklin's transformative journey through summers filled with love, friendship, and heartache. Taylor insists, “You should have everything you want, Belly . . . You only get married once.” Describe your ideal wedding. What would you prefer to have, but could do without, when push comes to shove? What features of your dream wedding are “deal breakers”—what do you consider absolutely imperative?
