I loved this book. Barbara Kingsolver's telling from the perspective of Demon was just brilliant. I believed from the very beginning I was listening to his voice, this fully formed person, the whole time. 

I'm thankful for the happy-ish ending. About 3/4 of the way through, I told my husband my heart was breaking because I just didn't see how this was going to work out for the main characters.
