Buffering: Unshared Tales of a Life Fully Loaded Hannah Hart is an online creator, mainly focusing on her popular YouTube segment My Drunk Kitchen among other projects, some partnered with Barilla and The Food Network. My Drunk Kitchen is a segment where Hart drinks while cooking and includes a plethora of food-related puns and life lessons along the way. I highly recommend checking it out. In addition to her growing fame starting a few years ago, Hart released a book late last year titled Buffering: Unshared Tales of a Life Fully Loaded. To quote the book’s synopsis on the inside cover, “There are tales of family, faith, mental health, LESBIAN SEX, and my ongoing journey to love myself (and not just my selfies).”

She tells stories of her mother’s home where she spent most of her early childhood. This “home” resembled what some may call the house of a hoarder: dirty, unsafe for children, and full of useless junk (which wasn’t at all useless to Hart’s schizophrenic mother). This insight shows how oblivious some children are to an unsafe environment. It also helps readers relate to a child with a mentally unstable mother who often left both of her kids alone and a neglectful father. She tells stories of past romantic relationships, giving a new perspective on the troubles in one gay relationship; some differing from those of a heterosexual one, and some bearing striking resemblance. Anyone who is interested in the digital age, LGBT relationships, and success stories should give Buffering a try. The problematic issues it addresses can be related to any of its readers, which is what gives this book its raw and eye-opening feel. A much different side of Hannah Hart is revealed, and this side shifts the view one may have of Hart today. A bubbly, cute, little lesbian who likes to get drunk and cook is now a strong, resilient, and undefeatable lesbian who likes to get drunk and

The appeal of adulthood and independence reaches its apex in fervent children. However, Maria Mazziotti Gillan, poet of My Daughter at 14, Christmas Dance, 1981, conveys the paternal perspective of viewing one’s own kin experiencing the “real” world through her daughter’s first relationship. The Family of Little Feet, written by Sarah Cisneros, illuminates the negativities of young girl’s eagerness to physically develop in hope of acquiring attention from possible suitors. While both pieces of literature possess varying perspectives of epiphanies, Gillan and Cisneros divulge the significance of cherishing one’s youth, as the realities of maturity divest children of their innocence.
