I've found that I am big fan of Elizabeth Berg's writing. I've had the privilege of reading both The Story of Arthur Truluv and the Night of Miracles. Both of these novels are so rich and powerful. The Confession Club continues the stories of the residents of Mason, Missouri, but each one of these books can truly be read as a stand alone novel. I just love how Elizabeth Berg creates the quintessential small town feel but doesn't make it corny or demeaning in any way. The characters are fully developed and personal. The storylines feel classic, but also timely. If you haven't visited the town of Mason through one of Elizabeth Berg's novels, I highly encourage you to book your literary trip today.
The Confession Club is a group of wormen who instead of discussing attending a traditional book club, they decide to each share a truth about themselves, or a confession if you will. Through this process, we catch glimpses of each woman and their true selves. The novel centers around Iris Winters and Maddy Harris. Iris Winters is conflicted about feelings she has for a man she recently met that has a troubled past. Maddy's marriage seems to be in trouble and she isn't sure what she should do. The story unfolds and each woman begins to navigate their own path. I truly enjoyed all the characters in this story and the way the plot line developed.
