Elliot Page did a great job writing and narrating his book.
I can understand how some may have been turned off by how the chapters didn’t come right after the other in a linear timeline. I feel like as a memoir, especially a celebrity one such as this, it makes sense to write this way, and you can see the vulnerability at different times in his life. I highly recommend listening to the audiobook, as you can feel, the emotion intended for what was being said.
I feel like this is a great book for others to read to understand those that are transgender, and what they go through a little bit better, however, unless you’ve gone through the experience, you can never fully know.
