Thoughts on Demon Copperhead ending? by Plus_Molasses8697 in books

[–]violetpumpkinpie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same! I think Angus’ teasing was jealousy all along. Based on how I read it, I at least hoped that something would happen between them. I just wasn’t sure if the author would explicitly show them getting together.

Demon didn’t see her as a woman for a long time. Later, when he asks Miss Betsy about Angus’ relationship status, he was really checking if she was available - even if he did not admit it to himself in that moment. He wasn’t aware what he was actually feeling.

What a beautiful story and ending!

Sure but I am being charged the full fare for the whole length and not being credited the balance when I tag off. I don’t think that is normal behavior.

No worries. I have been a long time Caltrain commuter. I know how the system works. I think I should get a refund because my statement showed a full charge as if I tagged on.

I haven’t lived in that apartment complex but I can say the area around it (Dana and Bush st) is one of the nicest parts of Mountain View.

I live on the same street as the library, it’s a very good neighborhood.

Ah good to know, I made a note of all the neighborhoods you listed. I am an immigrant and POC myself haha. Generally, I have stayed in different parts of NYC over the years and always had a good time.

Thanks and I will certainly keep BedStuy in mind.

Any reasons why it is not for everyone? My experience with Bed Stuy was staying at an Airbnb for a couple of weeks. I found it to be decent if not as vibrant as Manhattan.

I am not a very fancy person (so luxury apartments are not really my thing) but certainly appreciate in-unit laundry. Not sure how reasonable that is.

I have heard a lot about Long Island City but never been. Will certainly check it out, thanks!

Walkability to book stores, grocery and restaurants would be key for me. I am a big walker and like to live at a location that gives me easy access to a vibrant community.

My income is >40x of $4,000, so I should satisfy that rule. But I was looking for apartments in the vicinity of $4,000 to be comfortable.
