![]() ![]() As Cameron steps into her teenage years, she comes to accept that she is a lesbian and makes another gay friend (ahem…a friend with benefits), Lindsey who teaches her the “gay” ropes and who lovingly refers to Cam as a baby dyke, which always gave me a chuckle So Cam is then sent off to live with her grandmother and her ultra-conservative and ultra-religious Aunt Ruth in Miles City, Montana. So she ending up linking these two events in her mind creating some major guilt and in her preadolescent mind, wonders whether the death of her parents just might be God’s way of punishing her for her forbidden kiss.Īnd all this takes place right off the bat in the story. As it turns out, Cameron, who was 12 years old at the time, had been kissing a girl - her friend Irene- hours before her parent’s death. This story takes place in the early 1990’s follows a young lesbian teen named Cameron Post whose parents are suddenly killed in a car crash. ![]() ![]() The Miseducation of Cameron Post was on quite a few banned books list so it immediately attracted my attention (I love me some banned books!). ![]()
