One of the best things about a college campus is being surrounded by people who love to learn. We asked the NTCC community to share a favorite book they’re reading this summer and tell us why they recommend it. The result is a diverse collection of titles that reflects the many interests, experiences, and perspectives that make up our campus community. Have your own pick to add? Send it to jpack@ntcc.edu and it may be featured in our next edition!
