After reading Elliot Page's own memoir he had posted an image of this book on Instagram and I knew that it would be the perfect pick for Inqueering Minds, the queer bookclub I host. A deeply introspective book about the intricacies of identity as a trans gay man, each chapter was beautifully put together in a way that was accessible for anyone to read. I found the language was open and accepting and would allow anyone curious to learn about trans identity, to listen to a human experience and better inform themselves, to step into the heart and mind of someone who just wants to know who they are and is kind enough to pave a new pathway for people to grow and learn. I found it inspiring that because he lacked a guidebook on how to be Nicholas stepped into the role of teacher to provide a piece of work useful to anyone feeling similarly alone.
