By KRISTY WARREN
Journal Staff Writer
At a time when things
may not be going perfectly
in our own lives, we can lose
ourselves in the superficial,
funny, and
sometimes
sad lives of
the women
in Secret
Confessions

Ellen
Meister’s
story of a
group of
elitist, catty,

Long Island
housewives
is reassur

may not

bad after
all. The
characters’
lives are
consumed
by decep

and artifi

a special
PTA proj
ect brings
the unlike
ly group
of women
together.

characters
are trans
formed
from being
the snobby ladies you want
to trip when she walks by,
