So many updates in the Pluckyverse, I don't even know where to begin. The semester started off crazy with me taking on way more responsibilities than I could manage and somehow getting them done.

Review – The Burn Zone: a Memoir by Renee Linnell
If you’re anything like me, you find the psychology of cults very interesting.

Review – Call Me By Your Name by André Aciman
Today, I am sitting in a lovely little coffeeshop between a rehearsal and a performance. I think I have spent more time, collectively, in coffee shops than anywhere else in my entire life. And I'm perfectly okay with this fact. Sitting today, I have a little time to reflect the book that I finished yesterday. … Continue reading Review – Call Me By Your Name by André Aciman
