I've been playing her with Ravenous Hydra as first (or second if I back with 1550 gold) item recently, and I have to say that I really like it. It means you instantly kill any minion waves in your way, and it doesn't hurt your damage to champions, as the active makes up for the less AD compared to Bloodthirster. Plus you can heal faster from minion waves, or sometimes heal more in a 1v1, if it's in a minion wave. And on top of that the largest build component is only 875 gold, which means you can buy more on about every back.
