Welcome to The Summer I Started A Podcast: A The Summer I Turned Pretty Recap Show! In this podcast, I am going to recap and review the Amazon Prime Video hit show, The Summer I Turned Pretty! I'm also going to analyze the show and go deep into the details and foreshadowing that Jenny Han loves to sprinkle in!

While the show is on hiatus, I'm re-reading the TSITP books and discussing how they relate to the tv show. I've also started a bookclub where we can read and discuss books with similar romance, characters, or stories as TSITP. In addition, we discuss other media and news to fill the TSITP void.

Thank you so much for joining!

This is a podcast for the Conrad girlies 💖💫

ribble ribble ,

Good commentary and a soothing voice!

I enjoy it!

kamp1992 ,

Getting me through!

I love a long form podcast and Kara is so easy to listen to. I just enjoy hearing all the extra detail and analysis of character motivations. Thank you for creating more tsitp content it’s honestly getting me through my withdrawal!!

Cha Ching $$$$$ ,

team Conrad is the only answer

The best analysis and I am so glad someone has made a podcast to speak on what has been consuming my mind for weeks on end!! Kara is obviously Team Conrad, but if you truly watch and understand the show, how can you not be? With Kara’s analysis we really see how intricate all the details of the show are, and how all roads lead to Belly and Conrad being soulmates. I don’t understand how anyone could even be Team Jeremiah… but nonetheless, this podcast is filling in my little TSITP void while we wait for season 3 and I love everything part about it!<3
