Pageboy by Elliot Page
challenging
emotional
inspiring
reflective
medium-paced
4.5
My reason for not giving this 5 stars is that Page's moving backwards and forwards in time became a little confusing at times, being unclear how old he was when certain things happened. I loved his honesty and his relationship with his step-mother was very sad.
I bought this book for my school library, but have decided to limit access to 15+ because of descriptive sexual experiences. I believe it's an important title to have in our collection and out of respect to Page, I don't want immature readers giggling about his most conflicted moments.
