eheidenreich 's review for:

Thirst by Marina Yuszczuk
3.25

I really enjoyed this book, until the last few chapters. Yuszczuk spent the majority of this book developing the vampire and human women separately. Both portions of the book, first following the vampire and then the human, are captivating and contain an undercurrent of death as a driving force. Unfortunately, the time we get once the vampire and human's lives mix is disappointingly brief. There is an erotic tension between the human and the vampire that is cut short by the ending. I think if that had been explored more, the ending would not have felt so abrupt.
