Packed in the lower-level all-purpose room, readers from across East Meadow and Salisbury clutched copies of books they discovered through the East Meadow Public Library’s Adult Summer Reading Club on Aug. 15.
The club celebrated yet another successful year as they listened to famed author Yona Zeldis McDonough read pages of her most recent novel, “A Wedding in Great Neck.”
“I’ve always been inspired by East Meadow, Great Neck and other parts of Long Island,” McDonough told the crowd. “Even though I’m a Brooklyn girl, I still absorb Long Island’s beauty.”
