The Confession Club is the third in Elizabeth Berg's wonderful Mason, Missouri series. After falling in love with The Story of Arthur Truluv and Night of Miracles I was happy to continue along with the residents of this sweet small town. In this book, we meet a group of women who have turned a supper club into something much more revealing- a Confession Club. It's a little like book club, but without the books and with a lot more truth-telling. All those deep dark secrets that have haunted us for years, well, maybe it would feel better if we just let them out? The group of women, ranging in age from mid-thirties to late-seventies, invite Iris and Maddie to join them. Iris has met, and fallen for, someone quite unexpected and Maddie isn't sure what direction her relationship will be taking, but they both find comfort in the talking and the confessing.
This whole series is sweet and cute and comforting. Had a bad day? This is just the right book for you. Need something to distract you from the real world? This'll do the job happily. In the mood for something challenging and thought-provoking? Well, maybe not this, but it will be here as the perfect respite after that more challenging read. I personally love having something light and soft to read after something dark and scary and this is perfect for that very thing.
