Pageboy by Elliot Page
4.0
emotional reflective

A celebrity memoir that seems genuinely not ghostwritten! 

Page is a little all over the place here, but some of his essays are really insightful, powerful, and juicy! His coming out speech was a really pivotal moment for me in my journey with my sexuality (and my model for when I came out) so it was super interesting to read about the behind the scenes of that moment and his path towards coming out (first as a lesbian and then as a trans man)

You can tell reading this that Page took a lot of pride in this (and his other creative work) and that makes it worth it for me!
