She thinks Jere & Conrad might not want to hear from her but she's just thinking of herself. The fight scene between Jere & Conrad only goes to show that Jere's character is more flawed than Conrad's and Miss Han is pointing out that Conrad is more worthy than his little bro. I picked up the first novel from this trilogy at a dollar book sale and thought it would be a perfect summer reading book. This isn't even used enough with Jeremiah's character - later on, he seems to be a great boyfriend (except for, you know, the cheating thing) and Belly never holds this against him or brings it up ever again. Look, I get you guys are happy and all, but come on. What I didn't like about her was how indecisive she was. For the first time, all three Summer novels are in one collection, including The Summer I Turned Pretty, It's Not Summer Without You and We'll Always Have Summer. It's a beautiful coming of age story.
I loved all the other characters, and I was pretty sad to find out that Susannah died, because she was such a lovable character and it seemed that she was the one responsible for the gathering in the beach house each year. Um, yeah, I guess we reached the end? It's Not Summer Without You - Conrad and Belly broke up (shocker) and now it's another whole book about going after Conrad and Belly whining about he doesn't love her. The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han is a beautiful novel for all fiction readers as it offers lots of unexpected twists, powerful characters, excellent story and fantastic entertainment of reading from the very first page till the last word. It's perfect for summer but it's actually not entirely revolved around summer. As for Jeremiah, I actually liked him through most of the series. To cut the story short, if you are a fan of great fiction, we highly recommend you bag this novel without wasting a bit of moment. No, no, apparently they "knew" they were getting back together when they "broke up"... well, wait, no, only Belly "knew" that so Jeremiah didn't see anything wrong with sleeping with another random girl. Despite how much I ended up disliking them in the end, Jenny Han has an easy, fluffy writing style that kept these books going, like Stephanie Perkins.
Jeremiah is sweet and funny and so, so normal. This is not really a spoiler. Predictably, they don't get married. From that relationship, I learned much about myself and about what a relationship should be. He loves Belly, Belly loves Conrad, Conrad loves his brother that he gave Belly to Jeremiah which makes Jere a rebound. Belly spends the first book pining over Conrad who is an ass, but also kinda likes her. If this summer really and truly is the last summer, it should end the way it started--at Cousins Beach.
I liked them as a couple much, much better than I did Belly and Conrad (because Conrad turns into the brooding bad boy that can't freaking communicate) and thought that Han was showing us a good relationship and that their marrying young would turn out well? It destroyed everything I loved about the books and left me so confused. Also, the reason they decide to get married is dumb. Despite distractions from a new guy named Cam and lingering looks from Conrad's brother, Jeremiah, Belly's heart belongs to Conrad. There are people waiting for you. You can also download Allie and Bea by Catherine Ryan Hyde.
They haven't experienced life and they don't listen to their parents which is practically jumping off the cliff into an oblivion of suffering. In the last chapter, I'm like, "What just happened? " Belly and Conrad get married. And you live in a shack.

But like I said, that's just me. Chev's system for reviews. So when Belly and Jeremiah decide to make things forever, Conrad realizes that it's now or never--tell Belly he loves her, or lose her for good. I... actually liked this part. There are parts I didn't mention, like Conrad and Jeremiah's mom dying of cancer and throwing a monkey wrench in their love life and Belly dating this random guy and throwing an even bigger monkey wrench into her Conrad/Jeremiah love life. She's good friends with Jeremiah, but she's in love with Conrad. No one can beat the excellent ability of the author's writing, whenever there is a talk about great novel writing. All in all, I kind of liked the series. Apparently he "always" loved Belly, but...
