‘The Summer I Turned Pretty’

Isabel “Belly” Conklin’s family spends every summer at the beach home of her mother’s lifelong friend, Susannah. But this summer is different. At 16, Belly isn’t a kid anymore. And Susannah’s handsome teenage sons, Conrad and Jeremiah, have definitely noticed.

From the author of “To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before,” this much-buzzed-about coming-of-age romance (which has already been renewed for a Season 2) shows all signs of becoming a cultural touchstone for 2022.

Right now, Amazon has this 65-inch LG OLED TV from its C1 series marked down. The smart TV features built-in Google Assistant and Alexa.    

Unlike LED and QLED TVs, OLED TVs don’t have a backlight layer. Instead, each pixel is its own teeny-tiny LED light that can independently change its luminosity and even turn off completely. Because each of their pixels function independently, these TVs offer elite image quality — and the darkest shadows. OLED televisions also tend to be ultra thin. The LG set featured here measures just 1.8-inches thick.
