A review by cozylittlebrownhouse
The Confession Club by Elizabeth Berg
3.0
Thank you to NetGalley and Random House Publishing for an advanced reader's copy in exchange for an honest review.
I was thrilled to return to Mason after falling in love with the community and its residents in the completely delightful The Story of Arthur Truluv and enjoyable Night of Miracles. This third installment in the series focuses on a group of women who became friends while attending Lucille's baking classes, but previous characters also make appearances in the story.
The Story of Arthur Truluv and Night of Miracles were five and four star reads for me respectively, but The Confession Club lacked the charm I found so endearing in the first two novels, and for that reason, I didn't find it as enjoyable a read. Berg, who writes wonderful characters (I have read many of her books), misses the mark just slightly in The Confession Club and I was unable to really connect with the cast.
I can still recommend this book, and I would definitely encourage anyone to check out the first two Mason books.
