Grieving, lonely, curious and troublesome we spend the Summer with Cameron as she explores her sexuality, much to the chagrin of her conservative and religious family and community.
While this book could have gone so many directions with this story, it was a Bildungsroman that stayed true to the genre. Despite the circumstances she later finds herself in, surprisingly, Cameron is finally able to define for herself her identity and who she is without the judgment from her community and family.
I wish the book tied up certain storylines and situations better, although the ending tried to be hopefully and reflective of the journey Cameron had been on/ was still going on, I wish it explored the “what happens next” further.
I can’t say I enjoyed reading, but more like I didn’t mind reading it to pass the time.
