The Summer I Turned Pretty

The Summer I Turned Pretty (Summer, #1)The Summer I Turned Pretty by Jenny Han
My rating: 1 of 5 stars

I know this is YA, but it is written as juvenile. The story fell flat and the characters felt one-dimensional. I think things may have been better if so much of the rambling had been taken out. The book was unnecessarily long. Nothing happened for most of it.

I found Belly annoying. She spends so much of the book complaining and fighting with everyone. For being the main character, there doesn't seem to be much about her to like. Of course, there doesn't seem to be much to like about any of the characters. How are all of these relationships happening with these personalities?

I don't see the allure of this book. How is it so popular? There is no way I would be able to stand watching the show. This has been enough of The Summer I Turned Pretty for me.
