The announcement:

Prime Video is celebrating some of its biggest book-to-stream hits with Prime Book Club LIVE, an unmissable free event on Thursday, July 31 in Sydney. The event will coincide with Australia’s first talent tour for global phenomenon The Summer I Turned Pretty with best-selling author Jenny Han and series stars Lola Tung and Rain Spencer to attend, along with best-selling author Mercedes Ron of Prime Video’s Culpable trilogy.

Prime Video is renowned for delivering hit screen adaptations of best-selling and beloved books. Through immersive activations and panel discussions, Prime Book Club LIVE will bring to life The Summer I Turned Pretty, the Culpable trilogy (My Fault / Your Fault / Our Fault), We Were Liars and more in an immersive space, offering fans the chance to experience the ultimate mix of page and screen loved Prime Video content.

The highly anticipated third and final season of the global hit series The Summer I Turned Pretty will return with two episodes on Wednesday, July 16 on Prime Video, with a new episode debuting weekly until the series finale on Wednesday, September 17. Join Jenny Han, Lola Tung and Rain Spencer to celebrate the legacy of the series and dive into what has made the show a worldwide sensation and one of Prime Video’s most successful original series. Mercedes Ron is the author of the best-selling Culpable trilogy. The Spanish-language YA movies Culpa Mía (My Fault) and Culpa Tuya (Your Fault) have achieved huge success, and in December last year, Culpa Tuya became Prime Video’s biggest international original launch ever. Find out what’s in store for the upcoming final film, Culpa Nuestra (Our Fault) launching in October.

Prime Book Club LIVE will be hosted by Lucinda Price (aka Froomes) and fans will also get exciting updates on some of Prime Video’s upcoming series and films.
