Revenge is a common theme in literature, drama, and other arts, popular because the desire for revenge is an easily understood emotion. In many of these works, tragedy is compounded when the person seeking revenge realizes he has become what he wished to destroy. However, in Fern Michaels SWEET REVENGE the execution and fulfillment of the revenge scenario is depicted as satisfying and cathartic.

Isabelle's turn for revenge on Rosemary Hershey. Rosemary was driving the car that ran a stop sign and killed a family. Isabelle was in the passenger seat but in the aftermath of the accident Rosemary said Isabelle was driving. Rosemary also contrived to steal Isabelle's business, fiance and win a law suit naming Isabelle. The plan for justice was more crafty than violent this time. The gold shields are still lurking waiting to settle the score with Jack and Ted. Jack is able to bale the w

The Sisterhood series by Fern Michaels are very entertaining, quick reads. The characters are likeable, unique women who you envision to be your neighbors. The stories move at a nice pace and although you know that justice will prevail at the end, Michaels always throws in a couple of twists and turns in to keep you engaged.
One is not left with deep philosophical ponderings after reading these books. Instead, they make you feel like you have had a nice "catch up" visit wit More...

Totally different than my usual genre. I struggled between 2 and 3 stars. I ended with 3 stars because the book reminded me of my childhood days and my devotion to Charley's Angels TV series. As with the TV show, the story is completely implausible. The author did do a good job of creating the characters, as silly as they are. She also demonstrated imagination and descriptive writing skills. Again, I doubt I would have endured the book had it not had an element of sentimentality. I must ha

The book I’m reviewing today is Sweet Revenge by Fern Michaels it’s a Fiction story. Michael’s main theme in the sweet revenge there are some thing that a group of gracious ladies just can’t over look & doing one of their friends dirty is at the top of the list.
The book is about a seven women who would do every thing to help out one of their clan, especially when it means righting a wrong. This is one of the books in the swee More...

Not bad, but not great. A little too much going on and not enough focus on the selected mission. A little disappointed in the way this one ended. This mission was for Isabelle who lost everything when her employee framed her for an auto accident which killed a family of three. To add insult to injury, the employee, Rosemary, also stole her fiance' and married him.

I bought this book for 50 cents and that is what it was worth. It's a good read for the beach or river since you won't care if it gets wet or lost. The storyline is fine, but the writing is so terrible. The author uses the "F" word, but won't use the "S" word. She calls it the "brown stuff." It's actually rather funny in a way, but I'm pretty sure it isn't supposed to be!

This was my first Sisterhood book. I know I should not have started with anything but book 1. I checked from the library and was not aware it was a series. I have liked all the previous Fern Michaels books, but did not like this one. I almost put it down without completing, but did read to the end.
Won't be reading any of the other Sisterhood series.

Fifth in the Revenge of the Sisterhood series. These women are smart, cunning, careful and know what they're doing. Although they take the law into their hands when the judicial system fails them as it has, at the end of the book you can't help but say "yes".

Jeez these books are stupid. Poor plot, poorly drawn characters, unbelievable deus ex machina to save the day. These are only palatable if you’ve just broken up with your boyfriend, hate men in general, and don’t mind wooden prose and stilted dialog.

A society of professional women seeking revenge on those who have done them wrong. What a cool concept! I was tense most of the book because I felt like any second, something was going to go wrong with the plans and the ladies would be caught.

I had no idea this book was in a series when I picked up it up at a discount store. I was able to follow along just fine while reading though, it is a quick, guilty pleasure kind of read, perfect for the weekend.

Finally, one in the series that doesn't have so much of a stomach turning revenge scene. Still very lightweight reading that could never happen but zips by quickly and has some interesting, quirky characters.

Sisterhood Series-need I say more? I have loved this entire series and the various ways in which they get revenge/justice. This book is Isabelle Flanders story. One of my favorite series ever!

--The sisterhood is at it again; as in Lethal Justice.
-- Same as her story “Hide and Seek,” just different members. The end result is the members finding justice.

As with her other stories, this one was fantastic!Each story of revenge is unique for this group of women.And I love each one.I don't know how Fern Michaels does it!

Am still enjoying reading this series. Liked that the "sisterhood" isn't into killing their "victims" and love to see what they can think of to get their revenge.

The plot thickens with each successive book. Didn't enjoy this one was much as I had hoped, just felt as though the ending was rushed. Such a shame.

I thought Fern Michaels was a romance writer but these are great reads with lots of intrique. These ladies of the sisterhood are omething else!

I still like this series. I love the idea of getting what they deserve although it is a bit extreme at times. I wish there was not so much language in it. I don't think it needs it. I will still read more.
Mar 21, 2011
An easy read like the others. But this time there were so many holes in the plot that I just had to say "yea, right!" Reading too many of them in row makes them a bit much. But still addictive enough to want to read the next one.

Quick read. Good story. Another in the vigilante series. Books are alike just the ways they get revenge are different.

very good, i didn't know that there were so many books in the series. can't wait to read the other books.

This was my least favorite of the Sisterhood series. The first four were better.
