3.5
"Never be mean in anything. Never be false. Never be cruel. I can always be hopeful of you."
"No credit given for all the extra miles that take you nowhere."
“Certain pitiful souls around here see whiteness as their last asset that hasn’t been totaled or repossessed.”
Demon Copperhead was a tough read. Not because the writing wasn't great, because it was. And not because it wasn't an interesting story, because it was. However, it was incredibly dark, often quite sad, and at times, very slow. I learned a lot while reading this book -- about the opioid crisis, about how easy it was to get involved in it, and the history of the area. I thought about the book for quite some time after reading it. Not quite missing the characters, but hoping they were okay. It is not, however, a book I imagine I will be re-reading in the future.
