Pageboy by Elliot Page
3.5
challenging dark emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad medium-paced

I'm so pleased Elliot Page has found his voice and has been able to speak his truth. This is a powerful piece filled with uncomfortable and traumatic stories.
It does read like a series of stream of consciousness essays though. The timeline isn't linear at all and the narrative will be following one story and within that story will then suddenly slip to a different time that's linked but it does make it a little awkward to follow.
