The story is so well-paced and evocative in times you'll feel like you are in it. Cameron is such a tough nugget: she takes on everything head-on and you'll wish you knew her in real life (or wish you were her). As she begins to develop a relationship with her friend Corey, Cameron's sexuality is discovered by her guardians and she is sent to be converted in a 'de-gaying' camp. Just as she is in need of a supportive role model, she is sent to live with her conservative aunt and grandmother. The Miseducation of Cameron Post is about Cameron, a girl living in Montana who has just lost her parents in a car crash. This book is a gut-punch of a read, but it covers so many issues which remain uncharted in YA fiction that I think everyone should pick it up. The Miseducation of Cameron Post by Emily M. All My Friends are Superheroes is a sweet and touching novella, packed full of more truthful observations about love and humans than most full-sized novels achieve. Yes, an odd premise, but Kaufman's book is so funny, very strange and quite romantic. When she is sure he has left her, she gets on a plane to start a new life and Tom has the duration of the flight to convince her he is still there. But on his wedding day, his wife is hypnotised by another superhero and can no longer see Tom. But he is friends with a lot of them and even married one, The Perfectionist.
