The final chapter of The Summer I Turned Pretty has officially arrived. Adapted from Jenny Han’s bestselling trilogy, the Prime Video series returns for its third and last season today—and it’s bringing some major changes. Set nearly four years after the events of season 2, the story picks back up with Belly (Lola Tung) finishing her junior year of college, now in the midst of a long-term relationship with Jeremiah (Gavin Casalegno). But the return of her first love, Conrad (Christopher Briney), stirs up old feelings and unresolved questions.
The 11-episode season is based on Han’s third novel, We’ll Always Have Summer, and is set to explore adulthood, evolving relationships, and the future Belly thought she had figured out. But longtime fans of the book should expect some surprises. “There are a couple of moments that people really love from the books that I knew people were wanting to see,” Han told People, but she cautioned, “they might not always happen in the way that you’re expecting.”
Tung told TODAY that this version of Belly is more grounded: “She has a new understanding of who she is and what she wants in life.” The story also delves into the lives of Belly’s inner circle: Taylor is pursuing a career in PR, Steven is adjusting to post-grad adulthood, and Laurel is exploring new relationships years after the loss of her best friend Susannah (Conrad and Jeremiah’s mom).
And yes, there will be drama. As Casalegno teased to Deadline, fans can expect “plot twists.”
How many episodes are in The Summer I Turned Pretty season 3?Season 3 consists of 11 episodes, making it the series’ longest season yet. Han, who also directed one of the episodes, is closing out the trilogy with an expanded run to wrap up every storyline—including Belly’s final decision between the Fisher brothers.
