Cameron’s immediate feeling of relief instead of grief at the death of her parents </spoiler> painfully captured how I (and probably many others) felt before coming out to my family. She battles shame and guilt that cannot be easily assuaged because she’ll never know if her parents would have accepted her. </spoiler> Anyone struggling with their sexual identity should read this, but be forewarned it could be triggering, especially for those raised in a repressive, religious household.
Look, The Miseducation of Cameron Post is a gut punch wearing a cardigan. Emily M. Danforth keeps the tone gentle and the language simple, then drops something devastating when you're not braced for it. The emotional payoff is earned, no cheap tricks. Great for readers who don't mind crying, skip if you're not up for it this month.
