The whole thing was creepy and unrealistic. I agree with all the 1 star reviews. I threw it across the room when I was done. The people who deserve justice are those of us readers who wasted our money on this sick and twisted book. I too, wish I could give it 0 stars. The characters had no depth and took unbelievable risks in exacting their revenge.
Would use this seller again. Good condition. A good product. Arrived in timely manner.
This was a fun read and I quickly moved on to the next books in the series, I am currently on the 4th book and still hooked.
Thanks to the statute of limitations, the legal system could not help her so thus, the Sisterhood sets out to find, bait, lure, and trap her rapists and remove their balls. Literally. On the contrary, it is about 7 women that have been chewed up and spit out by the American legal system. I have passed over this novel thru the years because for some reason, it is always in the Romance area.
Get your attention up there. Truly a tale for women about women. They decide to take matters into their own hands, beginning with avenging the rape of Kathryn. Well it is true.
However, upon recommendation of a co worker I gave it a go and found there really is no romance in it. It is also an easy, one day read. This novel really does have balls. I thoroughly enjoyed it despite the fact that the writing is a tad rushed and a bit amateurish compared to many other bestsellers.
Too bad. Aside from some errors already mentioned how about a woman who's never driven a manual transmission spending five minutes toodling in an empty parking lot and is suddenly an expert. Errors in research abound--from truck drivers "keeping" empty trailers on their rigs to solar energy running thousands of megawatts of computers in an underground bunker.
Fern Michaels takes what should be an emotionally-charged topic--women seeking justice when the system fails them--and reduces it to a voyeuristic aura. Narration is flat, but that could be because the prose itself is blase and distanced from the action. I've been a Fern Michaels fan for almost 30 years now, but this book was a real disappointment.
The dialogue is superficial and juvenile. This could've been something stellar. Aside from the inherent problems with castrating males in a tractor-trailer, the first operation reads as a clinical how-to, sounding plucked verbatim from WebMD or some other online surgical site.
We don't get any feel for how Catherine reacts to gaining her revenge.
