So I am a big Dickens fan and had read David Copperfield awhile ago. Well I just finished Demon Copperhead and I wanted to know what people who have read both have thought. All I could find in GoodReads were people who had never heard of/read David Copperfield. Or the people who did like David Copperfield because it was too long or too old or something like that.
I’d love to hear from people who at least can appreciate David Copperfield and what you thought of Demon Copperhead. I personally really enjoyed it, but I found it was missing that spark of joy and humour that Dickens has even at its bleakest. This probably wouldn’t be something I would have minded, except as it is a rewrite of Dickens, I’m going to have the original on my mind.
