There was a part of the book in the middle that felt like it dragged a little because (seemingly) nothing was happening. Life was good for Demon BUT I knew there had to be more bad stuff coming and just wanted to get through it. However, after finishing the book, I realized that part was almost necessary or the book would've just been one giant trauma dump and there wouldn't have been a reason that Demon was capable of overcoming all he did.
Over all, not for the faint of heart but highly recommend.

I won't say that it was easy to read(it took me a month), but it was definitely fun to read. Who cares about sentences making sense and following grammar rules? Not Demon.
Great book! Hits some hard topics but in a way that shines light on the problems and makes me feel more knowledgable about them. My takeaway from it is that no matter where life starts you out, there are always choices to be made and consequences to be had. Maybe sins are most of the time passed down from the generations, but maybe they don't have to be. The cycle can be broken. Ain't no hill for a climber.
