Anyways, after a while certain parts about being trans were like oh good my transfemme self isn't alone.
The relationships though & the shadow work kinda went over my head because I'm aromantic but the workplace accident (because of how wreckless the directors were to black & queer lives) helped connect me to the kind of stuff he meant, so I am thankful he included workplace incidents like that.
Also the memoir isn't told as chronologically, so basically if you're taking notes then I recommend trying to make a character list sort of glossary since the time dimension doesn't sort them, but some segments are like public letters.

- The organization (lack thereof) was absolutely all over the place. I don't mind a nonlinear plot, including in a memoir, but this was particularly difficult for me to get through.
- Endless accounts of sexual assault and sexual harassment. It is absolutely awful that Page endured all of this hateful behavior, no question. I could not handle it. At just under 2 hours, I could not fathom how I would listen to another 6 hours of this book. I gave myself another day, and I just could not listen to it anymore. Switched audiobooks mid-drive.
