Brooke Pawling Stennett is a college student pursuing a degree in Multimedia Journalism and Creative Non-Fiction in the old Windy City. She tends to lean toward the obsessive side of the tracks when it comes to books and music. She's an avid concert attendee (or at least she tries to!) and rambler. She'd like to travel the world and write about it, but in the only ways she knows how: sarcastically and full of internet jargon. Her opinions are her best ones, especially if they involve boy-bands and Netflix. . .even though she doesn't even have her own account. You can tweet her at @br_stennett and tell her how ridiculous (and totally great!) her opinions are.

Album Review: Alessia Cara’s full length debut, ‘Know It All: Deluxe’ is here

The thirteen songs are filled with the impending thought of adulthood, love, youth, coming of age, and heartache. It’s a wonder how all these lessons of truth can be fit into one album, but on the business side, it’s the better move for Cara to have taken.
