Demon Copperhead, by Barbara Kingsolver

29/60 | Started 05.15.25 • Finished 06.08.25 | 5 stars


Wow, what a book. Kingsolver writes out of her norm here, drawing from crises in the foster care system and with prescription drug addiction. This one comes with lots of content/trigger warnings, as well as language and mature themes. But Kingsolver is a master storyteller, and despite the tough topics, leads the reader to root for and become endeared to the main character, Demon. It's a long book, but in my opinion it never drags on, but rather honors the time it takes to cover the heaviness. My review here again suffers from a large amount of time between the reading and the recollecting. All things considered, 100% recommend to a prepared reader.
