Demon Copperhead | REVIEW Claire Reads Books 2024-05-29 | A belated review of DEMON COPPERHEAD by Barbara Kingsolver (featuring some months-old fall foliage from a reading vlog that never was!) Spoiler note: This review touches on some of the broad strokes of the plot of the novel, and the last two minutes touch vaguely on where Demon, the character, ends up. It's based on a Dickens novel, so I don't think this book can really be spoiled, but proceed accordingly!
