Thirst has a heroine who doesn't want to be what she is. She isolates herself. She stays away from temptation. She tries to live her life by her own set of morals, which are stricter than usual because of what she is. In trying to save someone she hurts them and tries to correct that. While some of the plot points are a little on the "really, now?" side of things, at least it's new and interesting. The lead character is also legitimately over the legal age of everything, so that's nice.I felt she was a little too open to trusting and obeying all the new people in her life, even after they attack her. She also is stunningly naive about the part of her she believes to be evil. You'd think she'd research it or something after all the drama starts, but no. Overall, though, she was interesting.More than anything, she comes across as a good person. She doesn't like someone getting killed even when that someone caused the whole mess. She's logical enough to see when something is no-win. The last few chapters are a little too easy in my opinion. If it was all really that easy, why wouldn't someone have already done it? Either way, she doesn't have eighteen guys fawning over her nor does she have superpowerful women envious of her because of said guys. That alone makes it much better than most of the other fare available.
