Why Laurel Calls Susannah "Beck" In The Summer I Turned Pretty

Of the many relationships and friendships to appear in The Summer I Turned Pretty, the connection between Laurel and Susannah is one of the best, however, the series never quite explains why Laurel calls her best friend “Beck” rather than Susannah. The Summer I Turned Pretty is a romantic drama based on a young adult romance trilogy by Jenny Han. The series follows Belly, a young woman who finally grows into herself and realizes that her summer vacation at the fictional Cousins beach may never be the same, for better and for worse.
