Cameron Post feels a mix of guilt and relief when her parents die in a car accident. Their deaths mean they will never learn the truth she eventually comes to - that she's gay. Orphaned, Cameron comes to live with her old-fashioned grandmother and ultraconservative aunt Ruth. When she’s eventually outed, her aunt sends her to God’s Promise, a religious conversion camp that is supposed to “cure” her homosexuality. At the camp, Cameron comes face to face with the cost of denying her true identity.

This is such a good book. You will be moved by this sweet and honest love story of a high-schooler who is lesbian. It is remarkable in its portrayal of the ways our society imposes itself on a young girl, especially if she likes girls as in this story. So many parts were so heart-breaking. Emily also does a beautiful job of not simplifying people as all good or all bad, but maybe how we all are a bit of a hypocrite. Unfortunately, the hypocrisy for some serves as a boots on the necks of queer girls in high school. We need more books like this so LGBTQ identified youth can see themselves and their particular struggles through what they read, and to help everyone understand a little more, to help us tear down the "single-stories" we hold and from which, we hurt. Recommended reading for all!
