Well, I thought I could read Tick Tock as a standalone novel. Unfortunately, it was not the case.

I had a rough start from the beginning as the characters were introduced. There were quite a number of them and all appeared to be carryovers from the previous novels. So, I was compromised at the get go.

I'm not sure that I would want to read the prior novels. But perhaps if I did, I would have gotten the gist of the who, what, when, and why of the Sisterhood. However, the writing style seemed a bit juvenile and didn't quite appeal to me. It reminded me of the Spykids movies.

The storyline was a little confusing with the back and forth between villains and victim. And I didn't understand the motives of the villains.

In any event, Tick Tock just didn't hit the right buttons for me and sadly it was a DNF at 33%

I received a digital ARC from Kensington Books through NetGalley. The review herein is completely my own and contains my honest thoughts and opinions.

Reading Tick Tock by Fern Michaels, I am taken back to revenge tales of men who were put in prison for something they did not do, hell-bent on seeing justice for the life that was taken, a twisting tale with a modern shade akin to The Count of Monte Cristo. However, a big difference with this story: the criminal is perverted (in many ways, mentally, one), guilty, knows it and yet he doesn't care, still wants revenge on those who put him behind bars. And as the future Count did, this prisoner betters himself, begins a plan to find those he thinks wronged him and exact his revenge. The worst, the child pornographer finds himself no worse a criminal than others, lacks the moral aptitude to see what he has done wrong, what is wrong with him. The worst sort of criminal.

As just this makes for an amazing story that keeps you on the edge of your seat, as always with Michael’s books, there is more to come. Banding with criminals he meets behind bars, they all form a plan, all take a part, to employ a perverted justice they think themselves due. However, as with all criminals, there are secrets. And, here too, these men all keep hidden parts of the plan from one another. These are men who have no problem with being able to rationalize their crimes and what they have done and will do, in the future. In Tick Tock, Michael’s brings readers a set of villains set on perverting society, preparing to enact further crimes, destroying any life that they feel warranted to do so.

To combat these villains, Michaels brings together a cast of unforgettable characters. Strong women, all victims of traumatic crimes where justice (for them, for any victim) has been diverted by some technicality, some unfairness. Righting wrongs in the world, together they take matters into their own hands forming a Sisterhood. Each bringing a unique skill to the group and working under the directive of serving justice, they are judge, jury, and enforcer, the only thing they will not do is commit murder. Unfortunately (for the criminal), when the sisters are done, the criminal usually wishes for this, as the Sisterhood always has punishments worse planned.

In all of Fern Michaels Sisterhood books, I must admit the women are creative not only in their punishments but their investigatory skills, knowledge and abilities, having husband's you can't help but cherish as a reader, who participate and aid the women. Michaels is a writer who I cannot lay claim that her stories are beat by ones in reality, as I often judge non-fiction or true crime worse than what writers can create. The Sisterhood books, Tick Tock, in particular, defies that statement. Michaels is so inventive, yet stays within realistic boundaries with her story line(s), that in her writing I have finally found more twisted tales than real world ones.

When the avenging sisters are up against several criminals, all with their own crimes, intentions on revenge, having to puzzle together pieces that seem to come from different sources, but are related, will multiple criminals, all with a part of a master plan, finally bring down the strong women? When one of the Sisterhood is attacked and is facing her end, will the multiple criminals be able to bring a complete end to all the women of the group? Will a sister be lost?

The madness of the storyline, the switch, back and forth between criminals and the Sisterhood (characters), only makes the book all that better to read. Still, with all Michaels gives her readers, she is impossible to predict. Rarely do I read an author who can surprise me and hide (from readers, or, at least me) what comes next. However, Michaels is a master of this, masking a story for me, so as a reader doesn't know, leaving mystery that is only divulged as the pages turn and the reader goes forth in the book. I dare you to read her book and honestly say it was all predictable!

If you haven't read Fern Michaels, her Sisterhood's books, here is a terrific one to start off with (if only for the fact that this writer is anything but predictable and I've long for such a book of late). I promise you, once you read one of her books in this on-going series, you will be a fan forever (as I now am) and won't be able to wait (as I can't) for the next defeat that comes from Michaels pen and the characters she creates, the Sisterhood. I must warn you though, this may be the very best book of the series (just in case you chose to start here) as the Sisterhood is up against a cast of deviants of the worst sort.

The Sisterhood books are readable out of turn, with no former knowledge of the series. This is personally, one of my favorites reads ever, as a whole (the series) and alone (Tick Tock). Even if you are just looking for a book to read about a group of tight, female, friends, sisters made, look here, if only to feel a warming, part-of, a Sisterhood. However, with Michaels, she can't help providing you, in these books, Tick Tock, in particular, her best one yet of the series, with more.

Fern Michaels brings back the Sisterhood and this time it’s personal. Myra’s daughter Nikki is badly injured in what originally looked to be a random act of violence. Turns out that her husband, Jack, was the intended target. Hurting one of the Sisters brings down the wrath of the entire Sisterhood. This mission introduces us to Libby – a computer genius – who is instrumental in tracking down those responsible and enabling the Sisters to serve their own form of justice.

As always, Ms. Michaels, draws the reader into the story and holds them until the end. As a fan of the Sisterhood and Men of the Sisterhood series I look forward to each new book that lets me visit old friends and cheer them on in their new adventure. I highly recommend this book - a page turner that keeps you riveted until the very end.

Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington Books for this advanced review copy of this book which I voluntarily read and reviewed. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

This was an interesting read in the Sisterhood Series. The Sisterhood and their men work together to right a wrong, but this time there is a more immediate need. Someone has the audacity to attack one of them. However, through their worry and concern, they manage to band together to target the enemy. After all, how dare you attack one of their own and think that you can get away with it. I liked the direction that this book moved in. Although, the premise is the same, it offers a different slant on the story. Plus it appears that there may be a new addition to the team? I guess time will tell. Thank you to NetGalley, the author and publisher for the opportunity to review this book. I thoroughly enjoyed it and am looking forward to the next book in the series.

Never mess with the Sisterhood. Target one of them and the whole pack will be on your trail. You can count on punishment being swift and severe. The women of the Sisterhood know how to get the job done and the money to make it happen. Jack was the target, but Nikki was the victim. Nikki, as in Myra and Charles' daughter. They have already lost one daughter to violence. They are not about to lose another. With their special skills and unlimited resources, the Women of the Sisterhood are determined to find Nikki's attacker and make them pay. With the help of Libby, a computer genius, they follow the trail on the dark web. No one can outsmart or hide from The Sisters.
Thank you to NetGalley and Kensington Books for this advanced review copy. In return, I am submitting my unbiased and voluntary review. All opinions and thoughts are my own.

I have always enjoyed the sisterhood series, and this book did not disappoint me at all! The sisters have grown and matured, but as they have they all have acquired more enemies. This story starts off with Myra feeling something is off, and Nikki is in a car accident. Another great book about he Sisterhood and the men in their life. I have and always will recommend these books to anyone wanting something different and fast paced to read.

Another great book from Fern Michaels.
The Sisterhood have a lot of resources and contacts all over. They band together to right the injustices of the world. In this book, they are faced with finding justice for one of their own. Highly engaging story from start to finish. As always, the characters are great and the plot flows seamlessly from scene to scene. Great story!
I received an advance copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

Tick Tock, the Sisterhood series book 34 by Fern Michaels was wonderful read. As always, I love Fern Michaels books. This is the first Sisterhood book I have read, and ready to read more. I loved that the Sisterhood bands together to take down the bad in a way only they can do, and I enjoyed the punishments they handed out. It was a fun, quick read. I found myself cheering them on.

Thank you NetGalley, Kensington Books, and Fern Michaels for the ARC for my honest review.

Excellent addition to the Sisterhood series. Story keeps you fully engaged. This time, one of their own is a victi,m and they go after the perpetrators with all hands on deck. A successful resolution.

Tick Tock by Fern Michaels was an engaging, fast paced read. I enjoyed the story throughout. Another fantastic read!!

This was one of Fern Michaels’ weaker Sisterhood novels. The plot seemed disjointed at best, and with so many Sisters involved it seemed impossible to get any more depth into their characters leaving them as shallow, static characters.
Thank you for the advanced reader’s copy.

I received an ARC of, Tick Tock, by Fern Michaels. These women really believe in sisterhood Myra and Leroy need help, can the sisterhood help them?.

As always a sisterhood book is amazing!

When Jack and Nikki go on a romantic weekend it ends the way no one expects. This sets Myra off and a mission begins.

This was a wonderful and scary book for the fans of the Sisterhood. But as always Michaels is true to form. The ladies will right some wrong and deliver some serious justice.

I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Tick Tock is book thirty-four in the Sisterhood series by bestselling author, Fern Michaels.

The Sisterhood is back with their latest mission, and it’s personal this time, even more personal than usual.

Fern Michaels reunites the ladies of the Sisterhood in another standalone installment to this well-established series. She expertly maintains the continuity of the series while giving unfamiliar readers enough details to make it an easy standalone read. The premise and plot are interesting and keep the reader entertained throughout. The story starts off a little slowly but quickly picks up the pace. The characters are well-developed with complete backstories. I enjoyed Tick Tock, rate it 4 out of 5 stars, and recommend it to all readers of action adventure and thrillers.

My thanks to Kensington Books, Zebra, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read an advance copy of this book. However, the opinions expressed in this review are 100% mine and mine alone.

The sisterhood unite again to avenge the attack on Myra’s daughter Nikki! Their security has been breached and they discover the target was Nikki’s husband. They much solve that mystery as well as find the people responsible for the bombing. Together the sisterhood is a force that always finds those responsible and issues their punishment!



Thanks to Fern Michaels and Kensington Books-Zebra
