This would have been a 5 star read for me but i unfortunately didn’t connect with second half of the book at all. I couldn’t put the book down in part 1 with the vampires pov but once the pov switched the book went downhill for me.

3.5 stars rounded up. I am a little unsure about my feelings on Thirst. Overall, I think it is really well-written novel, and I would recommend it if you are a fan of vampire novels. However, part one and part two are so different that I feel like they should be reviewed separately. I would give part one five starts. The writing was dark, atmospheric, gothic, and haunting. It was very reminiscent of Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles, so of course I loved every moment of it. Part two, however, wasn't for me. It follows a woman whose mother is dying of a neurological disease, and unfortunately I found the content extremely triggering and hard to read. I powered through it because I was interested to see how these two seemingly unrelated stories would be tied together, but I found the ending a little predictable. Ultimately this was a good book, but not a perfect fit for me personally.
