This is a deeply ordinary, yet entirely extraordinary, coming-of-age story about a young lesbian and her relationships to others and the abstracts of reality. She kissed her first girl quite young before both of her parents passed away, which strains her relationship with grief, her identity, and spirituality.
Protagonist, Cameron Post, grows up in rural Montana as a lesbian. So, if you’ve seen the film and didn’t like it, expect better things from the book. However, I rewatched the film after I read the book, and I hated it! Despite my own personal motto, this book is certainly better than the movie. I know the film didn’t win many people over, but I liked it! As a writer and a filmmaker, I do not believe that the book is always better than the movie and fully support appreciating separate mediums as separate narratives. I watched Cameron Post before reading the novel. The Miseducation of Cameron Post is a novel that became a feature film of the same name in 2018. Catch up on my last book review of Ain’t Gonna Be the Same Fool Twice by April Sinclair. Queer book review! All reviews touch on genre/plot, tropes (if any), and quality of gay content, and include both spoiler and spoiler-lite versions.
