Episode 23: The Summer I Turned Pretty


Listen Later

We’re back from hiatus, coming to you live as married women! For our triumphant return, we read THE SUMMER I TURNED PRETTY by Jenny Han to see how the source material measures up to the TV show that had all the girlies (and Taylor Swift) obsessed this summer. Love triangles, brooding heroes, and the perils of puberty await!

Talking points include: millennial nostalgia, the lure of bisexual men, and Stranger Things (R.I.P.).

Thanks, as always, to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Deoxys Beats⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for our intro and outro music, "RedLips."
