This just blew me away. Incredibly sad and beautifully written. Perhaps it feels like a pretentious thing to say but it also felt really important- placing that Dickensian morality tale of how systems prevent people in poverty from escaping its cycle into a modern context where it fits so well. I had to stop reading for a couple of days in the middle because it is very dark but I loved it overall

I interestingly had conflicted feelings about the style of the writing - as someone who has grammar rules drilled into me in English classes, yet speaking with a southern mountain dialect. Took a bit to get used to, but it gave authenticity to Demon. I enjoyed seeing some of my favorite sayings in a novel, like "built like a brick shithouse".
Too much reality in the book, it was a heavy read for a fictional story.
