A tough read on the 5th of November. A masterful tale in a contemporary apocalypse of neglect, abandonment, industrial consumption, and narcotic. Devastating at points of course, but stepping up to be the definition of optimism and resilience.

The rough names, stamped on everyone, are fixed in Lee County: Maggot, Angus (for Agnes), Coach, Woody, and, of course, our title character. The nicknames are given by others, done to them, like a light curse. Like “hillbilly” and other dishonorifics, heavy with history, the labels never completely disappear. People truly grow when they move toward life‘s greater efforts like love and art and decide: I am not who you say I am.

Maybe it was the fact that several people talked this book up to me that it fell somewhat flat…it just didn‘t live up to the hype! It‘s well written but I didn‘t connect with (or remember) many of the characters other than Demon. Who is Martha? Who is Ruby? Who is Swap-Out? By the end of the 500+ page book, I truly couldn‘t remember. (46)
⭐️: 3/5

I think I‘m one of the few people on the planet that is not a big Kingsolver fan. I enjoyed “The Bean Trees” and loved “The Laguna” but beyond that, her voice just doesn‘t speak to me. Hope springs eternal, so: Demon Copperhead. After trudging through the first, grim 75 pages or so, I bailed. Maybe after the fraught election season I‘ll try again. The caricatures she draws of Appalachians cut too close to a J.D.-like bone to be readable.

Tamra You aren‘t alone! I thought this was over hyped. I don‘t like her preachy tone/style of writing - it‘s too overt. 2mo

Dammit, Barbara Kingsolver. Why are you so good?? I loved this contemporary reimagining of David Copperfield, set in 1990s/2000s Appalachia. I was so impressed by how Kingsolver took the issues Dickens was concerned about in the 1800s and transferred them to a contemporary setting, constructing a compelling story around grief and loss, foster care, and the opiod epidemic—revealing how little has changed, and how a completely different system ⤵️

BarbaraJean (Cont‘d) still fails children so profoundly.

My biggest gripe is how grim this was to read. I remember a humor and lightness in Dickens‘ novel that was sorely lacking here. And yet, Kingsolver‘s style is so different—her characters are not caricatures as so many of Dickens‘ are—so perhaps that kind of humor would have felt off here. Ultimately, this was a tough read, but a good one. ⤵️
3mo
BarbaraJean (Cont‘d) It‘s been YEARS since I read and fell in love with David Copperfield, but Dickens‘ characters are so memorable that I was still (mostly) able to pick out who was who and where things would go. Now that I‘m a few chapters into re-reading DC for #WhattheDickens, I‘m even more impressed at how closely Kingsolver mirrors the original in a completely different setting, at least in the early chapters! 3mo
Cuilin I loved Copperhead and I‘m really enjoying Copperfield so far. The further I read the more I appreciate exactly what Kingsolver achieved. 3mo

I am blown away by the brilliance of this David Copperfield retelling set in Appalachia.

Yes, it is difficult and sad, and not many happy things happen for Demon, but there is hope.

That hope brought me to tears in the last pages of this masterpiece.

This one will stick with me.

I bought this book as soon as it came out last year, and purposely held onto it for a while. I fully expected it to be my favorite read of 2023 and I didn‘t want to overshadow other good books with its magnificence. So I started reading it in October 2023.

I just finished it today.

Ten months. That‘s how long it took me to drag myself through this book. I was tempted to bail so many times, but I persevered. ⬇️

Amiable Did I hate it? No. I fully appreciate the scope of the story, the voice of Demon, and the clever modern-day retelling of Dickens. I WANTED to love it. I don‘t know why I didn‘t. I have never been the type of reader who needs a happy ending—in fact, I prefer realistic plots and characters and dialogue. This was just … so bleak. 4mo
Amiable I was angry throughout the whole book. When Demon was a child, I was angry at the adults around him who didn‘t protect him. When Demon was older, I was angry at him for not grabbing the hands that were outstretched to help him. I just didn‘t want to pick up this book, and it sat for months while I forced myself through it, one chapter at a time. 4mo
Amiable I am glad I finally read it, given the praise and awards it has received. Did I enjoy the experience? Not even a little bit. Which made for a very confusing roller coaster ride. 4mo

Just as Charles Dickens used his stories to shed light on the societal ills of his time, so Kingsolver uses this revamped tale to emphasize the pervasiveness of the opioid crisis. I feel that it‘s a little like cheating—she never had to work out which characters get together, die, etc. Dickens did that! I loved figuring out each character‘s mirror in David Copperfield, though. It also lacks the humor Dickens weaves throughout. Still loved it!! ❤️

61/100

NYTs Books has put out a readers choice 100 for those who spoke loudly about hating the first list!

I have read more on this list 61 to the 48 of the official list. There are a lot of overlapping books

I am out of free articles but you can find the full list on Instagram - NYTBooks

Deblovestoread This is a better list by far. I‘ve read 64, 2 others were DNF and 15 are on my shelves. (edited) 5mo
ChaoticMissAdventures @Deblovestoread I just think that "best" is such a subjective word. Is it best because a lot of people read it? Is it best if people enjoyed it? Does it have to change the literary scene? And does it have to be written well? I think there are a lot of books on the other list that there could be arguments made for just depending on how you consider the word "best" 5mo
Deblovestoread I agree 100%. My best of is all wrapped up with my experience and perceptions which is not going to be the same as anyone else. 5mo

Kitta 40/100 but much better than my 29 on the other list. I‘ve got quite a few on my tbr list as well 5mo
IndoorDame Interesting! I‘ve read about twice as many of these, and have WAY more from this list on my physical shelves/kindle waiting to be read. But Ive DNF, disliked and found super forgettable about the same number. And the last list had lots of titles I‘d never heard of and was interested in reading and this list has almost none. 5mo
ChaoticMissAdventures @IndoorDame how many of the DNFs were crossovers? They said there were something like 39 duplicates on the readers choice list 5mo
IndoorDame @ChaoticMissAdventures 1 proper DNF crossover, and 3 show up on both lists that I put aside and likely will pick up again someday 5mo

I cannot lie. I had a hard time getting through this, because the story is so painful in many ways. I understand why it was chosen for the Pulitzer Prize, however, because the writing is absolutely phenomenal. I‘m glad I read it—and especially glad that I made it to the end, as it took some wild turns in the last 100 pages.

A lot of meat and potatoes in this story to digest but still a good read. It reminded me in a sense of the Goldfinch with the coming of age story of a boy where you get to voyeuristically follow their life through hell and back. Just a warning, it‘s a long book but definitely a story that will stick with me for a bit.

Set in southern Appalachia, a heart wrenching story of a young boy born to a single mum in a trailer park. Told in Damon‘s words he lives through child labour, foster care, high school and crushing losses.
This book is full of anger, hate and compassion, yet tells the story of the need to be loved. It features drug use and how its effects can wreck lives of loved ones. It is a depressing read but there is beauty within it too.

This loose retelling of David Copperfield explores life in Lee County through the eyes of a young boy nicknamed Demon. From his addict mother to the cruel injustices of the foster care system & drug addiction, the book will break your heart. But it's also so beautifully written & the voice feels so authentic, that you don't care. I wish I‘d read it sooner instead of dragging my feet.

I can‘t decide if Barbera Kingsolver is a literary genius or a whack that scored a book deal. This is the first book by her that I‘ve managed to get through and it was a ride for sure. Not a roller coaster per se, more of a train without tracks or speed control that occasionally punches you in the face and also can put you to sleep. But it took me over two weeks to get through it. Maybe it‘s a metaphor for the long journey of addiction?

At one point I almost bailed on this, but I decided to keep going. I‘m glad I did, because I ended up loving it.

KAO Good to hear, since I am just about 120 pages in on this one. I‘ve had a hard time connecting with this book, but I think I am finally getting into it. It was helpful to me to learn that it‘s sort of a modern twist on David Copperfield. 8mo
KadaGul Some books can be challenging and push us beyond our limits. There is no shame in deciding to stop reading them and move on. However, if we hang in there a little longer, it can be worth it. Although this may only happen a few times, the number of books we do not finish or bail on can add up.#NoShameInBailing (edited) 8mo

I don‘t know how I feel finishing this monster of a book. In terms of size and being a sort of memoir. Children born into a drug family and how that influenced his every decision in life. How that kept building up on everything going on in his life. Made me feel angry at the foster program, as it failed this kid over and over again. Book to make you think about a system that is said to be amazing, but actually fails.

I loved my second book of 2024, and I'm still thinking about it! The main character has such a distinct and compelling voice, and the setting comes alive as a character in its own right. It was fantastic on audio! I read David Copperfield in 2023, and I'm glad I did, because I absolutely loved how Kingsolver engaged with it and added depth and nuance to it while bringing it into a modern context. A tough read, but not without tenderness and hope.
