Buffering: Unshared Tales of a Life Fully Loaded by Hannah Hart
3.0
I’m used to Hannah being her jokey drunk self on my drunk kitchen. I actually expected her to be a lot more cynical and sarcastic here. Her story, is pretty surprising, and that, paired with her candour about trying to do better in life as far as mental health is concerned, made me keep listening.
I’m glad I did, because it was actually really healing. As a queer person I obviously found her coming out story relatable, and when she spoke about her relationships that was cool too, I appreciated the perspective. But the most healing thing was hearing her talk about her childhood pain, and growing through all the different toxic events and habits in her life.
It was definitely a bit cheesier than I’d like in parts, but I kinda just respect that as part of her personality, and she still told her story really well. As a biography it honestly shows emotional maturity and massive growth as a person. Covers important stuff around mental health, including paranoid schizophrenia, neglect, poverty and family. Surprisingly deep, and with good reason too.
