Camp

A gay fucking masterpiece.

Camping and Camping. Both definitions. Together.

Fucking fabulous.

["Sixteen-year-old Randy Kapplehoff loves spending the summer at Camp Outland, a camp for queer teens. It's where he met his best friends. It's where he takes to the stage in the big musical. And it's where he fell for Hudson Aaronson-Lim - who's only into straight-acting guys and barely knows not-at-all-straight-acting Randy even exists.

This year, though, it's going to be different. Randy has reinvented himself as 'Del' - buff, masculine, and on the market. Even if it means giving up show tunes, nail polish, and his unicorn bedsheets, he's determined to get Hudson to fall for him.

But as he and Hudson grow closer, Randy has to ask himself how much is he willing to change for love. And is it really love anyway, if Hudson doesn't know who he truly is?"]

Not only that, but this book, this camp, emphasized to be You, no matter who that person is. To be femme or butch or masc or both or neither. Be You. 

And the camp teaches them (and therefore us) a little bit of LGBT+ history. Which is always (always) a plus plus plus.

Trigger Warnings: bullying, homophobia
