ICYMI -- We are superfans of the Amazon Prime Video series entitled, The Summer I Turned Pretty! It is the on-screen adaptation of the book series of the same name, penned by renowned author, Jenny Han. The series hit #1 on Prime Video by the end of its first month of streaming and we certainly know why! If you are unfamiliar with the author's work, Jenny Han also wrote the fan favorite, To All the Boys I've Loved Before -- another hit book-series-turned-hit-movie-trilogy on Netflix! Basically, Jenny Han knows how to captivate her audiences in writing and in film.
So, imagine our excitement when during the filming of the first season, Camille's of Wilmington was selected to be a destinations for not one, but TWO scenes in the series.
