It’s been over six months since the finale of The Summer I Turned Pretty aired, and there’s even longer to go until we get the movie. Naturally, we’re starting to get a little stir crazy.

We miss the yearning, the messy love triangles (and the even messier MC), and the weekly spiral in the group chat. We miss it all, basically.

So imagine our delight when we heard some whispers online that there is another Prime Video show on the way, which feels fantastically similar to TSITP.

Oh, we are so back.

Additional cast members include Aurora Perrineau (KAOS, Westworld), Abigail Cowen (Fate: The Winx Saga), Michael Bradway (Chicago Fire, Marked Men), Joseph Chiu (Fear Street: Prom Queen, Motorheads) and Elisha Cuthbert (Girl Next Door, Happy Endings).

What is Every Year After about?

Told over the course of six years and one week in Barry’s Bay – the quintessential lake town that sounds eerily similar to Cousins Beach – Every Year After is a romantic, nostalgic story of first loves and the people and choices that mark us forever.

The series is based on the best-selling novel by Carley Fortune, “Every Summer After”, which spent 16 weeks on the New York Times Bestseller list, has sold 1M+ copies to date, gaining popularity through BookTok, with the book hashtag receiving over 81.4M views on TikTok.
