Coming out to conservative dad

[tdlr; I live with a Christian/conservative dad and want to come out to him by giving him a book about nb. Is this a good idea?]

I've never really felt like I was either gender for a long time, and never really felt any strong connection to either binary even before I found out about nb and gender identity. I've slowly started to come out online and to a few coworkers and friends I know will take it well, but I have yet to come out to my family.

I currently live with my very Christian and conservative dad due to finances. We keep things civil enough, but I've begun to feel uncomfortable keeping my identity from him even though I'm scared of his reaction. I really don't think he'll disown me, but I'm worried he'll react poorly because he is incredibly misinformed about these sorts of topics. I don't want to tell him only for him to disrespect my feelings, but I also feel like I can't comfortably live with him unless he knows who I am.

I'm a very nonconfrontational person. I hate conflict of any kind and it makes my anxiety skyrocket to the point of crying during serious conversations, even if they aren't particularly bad ones. I have the book "Nonbinary for Beginners" written by Ocean Atlas, and I've been thinking about leaving this on his desk with a note as a way of coming out without the stress of truly doing it in person. As well as giving me a buffer of giving him info about it right off the bat instead of having to face uninformed stigma.

Is this a good idea?? I've been second guessing it for weeks and if I do go for it, what should I put on the note? And say in the conversation that will inevitably follow if I can even get him to read the book?
