So Thirsty

De: Rachel Harrison

Narrado por: Brittany Pressley

A woman must learn to take life by the throat after a night out leads to irrevocable changes in this juicy, thrilling novel from the USA Today bestselling author of Such Sharp Teeth and Black Sheep.

Sloane Parker is dreading her birthday. She doesn’t need a reminder she’s getting older, or that she’s feeling indifferent about her own life. Her husband surprises her with a birthday-weekend getaway—not with him, but with Sloane’s longtime best friend, troublemaker extraordinaire Naomi. Sloane anticipates a weekend of wine tastings and cozy robes and strategic avoidance of issues she’d rather not confront, like her husband’s repeated infidelity.

But when they arrive at their rental cottage, it becomes clear Naomi has something else in mind. She wants Sloane to stop letting things happen to her, for Sloane to really live. So Naomi orchestrates a wild night out with a group of mysterious strangers, only for it to take a horrifying turn that changes Sloane’s and Naomi’s lives literally forever. The friends are forced to come to terms with some pretty eternal consequences in this bloody, seductive novel about how it’s never too late to find satisfaction, even though it might taste different than expected.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"As beautiful as it is horrific, So Thirsty is a potent ode to love in its many forms. Rachel Harrison weaves a dark and gruesome tale of true friendship’s ability to transcend both death and undeath."—Chuck Tingle, USA Today bestselling author of Camp Damascus

“The addictive latest from Harrison is by turns gory, rage-inducing, eerie, melancholy, and hopeful… a smart, scary, and occasionally sexy page-turner.”—Publishers Weekly

“With a realistic protagonist who faces choices that are sometimes scarier than monsters, this book will have readers sinking their teeth in.”—Library Journal (starred review)

I enjoyed the friendship between the two main characters.

Very different book than I normally listen to.

Thirst is satisfied in multiple ways. The sub-storyline is bizarre but meaningful to the differences in their relationships.

Weak Ending

I was excited to see this was a vampire book. I have been in the mood for one but I have to say the plot was very one dimensional and then there was the end. I was left wondering if the author was told her deadline was up. It was an abrupt ending where everyone was okay with things. Did you have a page limit?

Fun story, humorous dialogue

I liked the growth of the main character and the story of friendship. The love interest was charming.
I did want less tension between the friends and more of a storyline with the love interest.

Sort of thirst quenching

I couldn't wait to read this book. it was interesting and nothing like I've read. It was some good dark humor a lot of the time. Sloane's life was depressing so this seemed a better alternative. But I wasn't crazy about her. I think it was the dialog in her head. If it had been written from all the perspectives I think I would like it better. Her friend was fun but annoying. it all seemed so real. The friends they meet were sort of stereotypical, which added to the humor. I loved them, especially Henry. I really wasn't crazy aboabout the ending. It sort of leaves you to decide a lot. But everyone seemed happy. I think I wish the romance would've been more at the end.

The narration was good. I wasn't crazy about Sloane's voice. it's like she mumbled and whispered so I had to turn the volume wide open. The male accents were to die for and so dreamy. I can't get over how they are all the same narrator.

Great vampire story!

This took many twists and turns that kept the story fresh. Wonderful characters and strong relationships. A must read!

Grownup Twilight w a girl’s girl protagonist

Wow wow wow this was a pallet cleanser I didn’t know I needed

Stressed me out & made me laugh

No notes

pretty good story

This was a good story but it took a while to your everything together.

Great story but too short!

I enjoyed the banter and new adventures the two main female characters go thru. They are similar in ways but have totally different lifestyles and push each other out of their confort zones. The way they got turned was interesting and totally could have been prevented if the group of vampires they meet were more responsible. I enjoyed the story but I feel like it just abruptly ended… like where’s the rest, maybe a few more chapters to wrap it up would be nice.

Great story

I loved it. The different telling of a vampire story is refreshing. Just enough of everything and not too much of anything.

Watching all the ways we are human and loving all of the raw bits that are displayed in this beautiful story

I loved the way this story cherished all of our emotions as woman. It weaved a beautiful love story between friends, found family and the trust we ultimately owe to ourselves.
