The Suffolk County House of Correction, a group of women are gathering weekly to engage in their shared love of reading. Led by Librarian Tami Malone, this program offers residents the opportunity to engage in literary pursuits and dissect a group-chosen novel, or simply escape from unit life for refuge and coloring.
