There was also more explicit material than I'd been expecting, but it was all relevant, not gratuitous.
All things considered, I'm glad I read it. If you're interested in Elliot's story then I'd recommend you read it, if you aren't interested in his story then you probably won't enjoy the book very much.

This book would be 5 stars if the timeline wasn’t so confusing. I had to constantly go back or think about the timeline. Due to Elliot mentioning something where he’s 10 for example and then when he’s 33. If it was in chronological order I think it would be easier to piece together.

One thing I liked about the writing was the brutal honesty and the push/pull tension. There was a real sense of reaching a moment of clarity then retreating.
Whilst it’s not an experience I can fully ever understand, I think most of us can empathise with coming to terms with elements of ourselves we’ve been told aren’t ideal.
Perhaps that, plus Page’s easy writing style made this so gripping for me.
