The Summer I Wasn’t Me was disturbing, horrifying, fun, sweet, and kind of sad. It definitely played out differently than I thought it would. Every since her mom found out, Lexi knew that she had to do something. So she went to camp that was considered as "degayifying camp. Ever since her father died, she is afraid that her mom would be able to hand much more and will completely break. She is willing to go through the camp and change just to make her mother happy. Then she meets Carolyn.
New Horizons, the camp which promises to pray the gay away, is really really horrible. I have never known what exactly went on in those camps but it was really sad. Personally, I'm okay with gay community and glad they find happiness but the people that run those camps put me in shame.

The Summer I Wasn’t Me really showed me that there are people that hope they can be normal and not feel like they are freaks. It's sad because teenagers should not go through that and just be happy and start off their life the right way. The writing and the characters were terrific, I loved it!
