Life as Cameron knew it came to a screeching halt after her parents were killed in a car wreck. Cameron's ultra-religious aunt came to live with her and her grandmother to help take care of Cameron. Struggling with her sexual identity and guilt over her parents' death, Cameron experimented with drugs, alcohol and girls. When one of her friends confessed to their preacher about a make-out session with Cameron, her aunt sent her away to a school for "re-education" or to try to cure Cameron of her homosexuality.

I didn't really care for this book. I felt there wasn't enough outrage about the "school" Cameron was sent away to or the fact she was being sent away at all. I didn't care for the characters in the book and felt that they were't really developed throughout.
