“This is for the girls. Why do men get together and watch all the sports? This is our sport," says Teresa Phan.

The sport? The Summer I Turned Pretty. 
The stakes? Too high. 

This summer, a messy love triangle between a girl and two brothers has taken over our feeds. Jenny Han’s book-turned-series cemented its place as a cultural phenomenon in its third and final season.

“To be honest, I’ve seen better shows,” said Caterina Monaco who came to a watch party with a friend. “But I feel like it’s become a communal experience, the thing you watch every week.”

Nia Barange said the show appeals to her because of “the drama of it all.”

Barange is also drawn to Belly. As an Asian American, Barange said she admires that Han always features main characters who are diverse.
