The Confession Club
by Elizabeth Berg
2.5 stars rounded up. This is the third book in the Mason, Missouri series, and I honestly think it would have been best to stop after the first book, The Story of Arthur Truluv, which was really lovely. This book was… fine. Heartwarming, sweet, but lacking something essential, though I can’t quite put a finger on what is missing. In Mason, a group of women of all ages meet for “Confession Club” where they confess their various past and present transgressions to each other. In between inane meetings of the club, we get more of Iris and Maddy’s stories. Iris’s side story involves a completely unbelievable eye-rolling plot about a homeless man, and Maddy (naturally enough, after the life she’s had) is struggling to trust her husband to love her and be there for her, so she’s temporarily moved back to Mason with her adorable and precocious daughter Nola.
