So Thirsty is a journey of self discovery and an exploration of female friendship disguised as a campy horror novel, with a splash of romance, tons of atmosphere, and just a touch of gore.
I guzzled this book down like it was the only thing keeping me from being so thirsty. It is an irresistible read, perfect for spooky season and vampire fans.
Sloan is content with her life. She works, cooks, cleans, has mild mannered sex with her husband once a week and pretends she doesn’t know he’s fucking someone else. The only thing Sloan isn’t ok with - her approaching 36th birthday.
Sloan doesn’t want to go on a surprise birthday trip planned by her cheating husband - she’d rather stay home and watch tv and maybe keep him from bringing some younger girl home to fuck while she’s gone. Like any good content wife, she agrees to go - at least she’ll get to spend a relaxing weekend with her best friend Naomi.
Naomi is not content - she wants more. More fun, more drugs, more sex, and most importantly she wants more for her best friend Sloan. So Naomi does what any self-centered but well meaning friend would do. She drags Sloan out for a wild night out with foreign strangers, at a creepy house in the middle of nowhere.
What could go wrong? Or what could go right?

A note about the “horror” elements…
I haven’t read anything categorized as a horror novel since stealing my brother’s Stephen King novels in 5th grade. I am a scaredy cat, I don’t read or watch things that would encourage scary dreams. This was scaredy cat safe as long as you have a moderately strong stomach for some minimal (in frequency and level) gory descriptions. Another reviewer describes it as “cozy horror” and that feels like the perfect description.
Thank you NetGalley and Berkley Publishing Group for sending this book (eARC) for review consideration. All opinions are my own.
