Der Sommer, als ich schön wurde

It's alright, good binge material if you're bored.

Decent acting in season 1, the second season however fails to deliver. The story lacks depth in both seasons and is very predictable.

The source material feels as though it was taken straight out of Wattpad, no idea why there's so much hype out there.

I take it the books are better?

Amongst the cliches, irritating characters, and the irritating choices they make, there is something comforting about this series. The soundtrack, stunning locations, colorful costumes, excellent casting, and all around solid performances make an otherwise unoriginal series quite entertaining....and by the way, I'm team Conrad.

I have to say this series deserves a way less rating than it got- was expecting a 'to all the boys I've loved before' vibe, bur doesn't even come close. Instead got a bunch of insufferable and frankly speaking annoying characters. They're forcing the love triangle down our throats when there's zero sparks or chemistry between the characters. Have not read the book but majorly bored by this series *yawn*

Ps belly is the most frustrating character ever.

One of those series that made me watch just because I saw the trailer and I was hooked.

Based on the books by Jenny Han, this series is good as its own. There's the summer story, romance, drama and sadly tragedy. At first, it is a simple story of how Belly spent her usual summer until everything is different and how that year changed everything.

It's a usual growing of age story yet it is still enjoyable and fun to watch. Easy to binge with good ensemble cast and really good soundtrack. A romance story with songs from Taylor Swift and Olivia Rodrigo? It's a yes. So if you are looking for a series to easily binge and enjoy, this is a good series to begin with. Season 2 is also about to get released this week. Crossfingers on that Back to December version from the trailer.

At the end of season 1, you're gonna have a question whether you are team Jeremiah or Team Conrad

The Summer I Turned Pretty season 1 is 7/10. It'll make you smile and cry.

I actually thought that this would have been a different teen romance compared to the other stuff we've seen. But I was wrong about that.

The show is definitely not bad but it falls into to the case of bad writing and poor development. A lot of these characters are very stereotypical which makes the show really predictable. Certain things happen throughout the show that just leaves me in disbelief and the decisions made by these characters are just plain laughable.

The love triangle didn't really get momentum until the later episodes and the various subplots dragged the show down. The only storyline besides the main that I actually enjoyed was with the parents surprisingly.

Overall, the show was pretty much mid from the get-go. Nothing really convinced me that this was a good show and it just made me dissatisfied.
