Overall, I did like this book, especially as a fan of Elliot Page. I just wish the writing had been as strong thought the book as it was at the end.
The writing itself was heartfelt and raw throughout. However, I did feel it was not as strong at the beginning than at the end. At times I also struggled with the nonlinear timeline but this is likely a personal preference.
