Top 5 Articles of the Week (May 21-28)

Happy Wednesday Peliplaters!

To continue with my new column that I started last week, I have another round of fantastic articles to share with you! (See Last Weeks Picks Here)

Every week, I will pick my favourite articles that I think deserve some love. It won't be easy—like picking a favourite child—but I'm up for the task. Hopefully these recommendations will help you decide what to read next. I'll also be posting them over on my Instagram, @jennfrompeliplat. Without further adieu…
