People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own souls. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.
Carl Jung, Psychology and Alchemy (Collected Works 12)
So after 20 ish chapters there is a lill world information and no real plot and its going slow. So how do you plan to keep readers if nothing is happening. Dont take it to hearts . Your novel is wrote well and mc is rather fun ny anf hillbilly nothing wrong .Just that the storie and The plott is missing basicly .
