akacya 's review for:
A Cruel Thirst
by Angela Montoya
2024 reads: 336/250
i received an advanced review copy from the publisher via netgalley in exchange for an honest review. this did not affect my rating.
carolina fuentes has always wanted to join her family in hunting vampires, but her father is more concerned with who she’ll marry. carolina’s determined to prove herself as a capable vampire slayer to everyone. when she meets a kind and handsome sediento, though, she begins questioning everything she’s been told about vampires.
lalo villalobos just wants to take care of his younger sister. after being turned into a sediento and being forced to flee the city, this task proves more difficult than he anticipated. he just wants to return to normal, and when he runs into a vampire slayer with a common enemy, he’s sure he can achieve his goal.
ever since i saw this cover, i knew i had to read this book. i love vampires and ships from opposing sides, so i knew i’d like this (and i was right!). i loved both characters so much, especially lalo, who is entirely different from your average YA vampire. he was recently turned, and even before that, he knew a lot about vampires as he wanted to avenge his parents’ deaths. he also doesn’t have the best people skills. carolina, on the other hand, is a strong character who knows what she wants and goes for it. these two worked so well together and i really loved seeing them grow both individually and as a couple!
i’d highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys YA fantasy.
