So Thirsty

Tina ok

She’s not just my best friend. She’s my youth. She knew me when I was young — the purest, truest version of myself, before life got in the way. Before I knew about things like property taxes and inflation, about the slow drain of ordinary days and the quick disappearance of ordinary years, about how men I’d never meet, with beliefs I don’t share, could make decisions about what I can and can't do with my body. Before I gave in to doing what I had to and never what I wanted. Before all the choices that got me so far from the path ľd dreamnt of. Before dreams became impractical. She holds the best of me, and I think I hold the best of her. But maybe that doesn't matter. Maybe it's too late to be our best er selves. Maybe we've changed too much

"Be still" he says, leaning close to me. "You may not trust me yet, but someday you might. I have no illusions. I know I'm not saving you, but I'm giving you all the time in the world to save yourself"

If there is a happy medium between being a resigned, mildly depressed thirty-six-year-old woman with a thankless job and cheating husband, and being an immortal vampire indulging her lust for blood and sex and her desire for love and excitement, it sure would be nice to find it.

Besides, anticipating the worst-case scenario doesn't prepare you for the worst-case scenario. Just gives you the opportunity to be smug in the face of disaster.

“Sloane likes to think about death," Naomi says, hiccuping. "Because she came so close. She took the rejection pretty hard.”

"I don't know her like you do. She said you think of death, and yet she strikes me as someone afraid of dying. She lives as though she's running out of time. There's a desperation about her. Even now, when the long shadow of death is gone, she fears it. And you're the opposite. You fear living. A pity. You'd be so good at it.”

3.5 stars. A feminist look at the vampire story. I like how Harrison doesn’t shy away from the horror aspect but gives us a deeper story.
