"So Thirsty" is not exactly your typical vampire romance story.

What I liked
πŸ“Œ Woman going through a crisis and self discovery.. but add vampires
πŸ“Œ Best friends road trip... but they are running from the past AND vampires
πŸ“Œ Embracing that life doesn't have to be over or too late because there isn't an expiration on taking life and steering to a new, exciting direction... but add vampires! 

Think road trip of self discovery, discarding baggage, and learning to stop feeling sorry for yourself and live BUT there are centuries old vampires following you around and you are running from a "bloody" mess (hehe pun intended). A quick, but enjoyable read that didn't deliver me a typical broody vampire love story.

However, I wish I could have had more time to learn about the vampire gang and felt a little more connected to them. The conflict twist/relationship at the end just seemed ehh and not so impactful because I didn't feel that I cared or was connected as much. It's like we need a part 2 but the epilogue kind of wrapped up things in a not so strong bow.

I did enjoy the writing enough that I am curious to try to read more by Rachel Harrison.
