The Scribe has started a book corner for its online publication, which will be updated weekly to give a glimpse at the student body through the books they are reading. One student will be featured each week, with alternations between grade levels depending on the week. Book Corner also strives to be an ideal place to get recommendations for one’s next read. This week’s book was chosen by senior, Ama Twumwaa.
