Publisher's Summary

Set in rural Montana in the early 1990s, Emily M. Danforth’s The Miseducation of Cameron Post is a powerful and widely acclaimed YA coming-of-age novel in the tradition of the classic Annie on My Mind. 

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. There she falls in love with her best friend, a beautiful cowgirl. 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. 

The Miseducation of Cameron Post is a stunning and provocative literary debut that was a finalist for the YALSA Morris Award and was named to numerous “best” lists.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Amazing!

I loved this book so much, being bisexual there were things I related to and things that got me thinking. I think it was an interesting representation of lgbt youth in settings that are more conservative. I highly recommend this book.

beautiful, moving, funny, sad

such a great book! I would definetely reccomend this, especially to any young WLW. The characters are very genuine and relatable, especially the protagonist, who you will definetely want to give a real big hug to about 1038475714 times throughout the story. Warning: do not read this in public while wearing mascara.

Anyone else want a sequel ?

I really want a sequel where Cam goes to college on a swimming scholarship and reconnects with Irene?
