I like the ending, especially the Ouija board reference.

I agree with you on the beginning of Margo’s Got Money Troubles. I wrote a post in October about the length of time it takes to willing follow a book’s narrator. With each new book there’s a period of adjustment when I struggle to feel comfortable with the narrator’s voice and to trust that I’m in good hands. It’s almost like making a new friend. You kind of wonder if and when you want to see them again. So this opening captured me right away. And what an interesting take to switch from first person to third person when the telling of the story became difficult.
