Good book! I really preferred the first half — something about it flowed much better. The story was quite good, but I feel like the ending was a bit abrupt. I feel like I needed a better goodbye between mother and son.
loved the first half, could not care less about the second half.
book was boring! it was very plot heavy but because of the narration style it felt like plot points were just zipping by without us getting to experience them, like watching blurry images move past you in a fast moving car. I was really excited for this book because hot vampire lady in Argentina helloooo!! but was ultimately disappointed by the writing.
Vampires at their decadent, physical, blood-soaked, best…and yes, oh so gay. Intertwining two women’s stories, Thirst captures the tragic loneliness and yearning of the vampiric figure, and of course the requisite violence, thirst, and sensuality of them as well. Plus, Yuszczuk examines the role of women’s agency in historical settings and in contemporary Buenos Aires, with a deft hand covering the limits of motherhood, desire, and grief. If you love vampires in a juxtaposed grim, yet sumptuous historical setting, Thirst is perfect for you.
