Margot is ok. Margot Thornsen is raised by a domineering mother in a wealthy family in the 1950's. She is criticized and belittled. As she grows up, the money goes away and the turbulent 1960's ensue. I was expecting to feel more empathy for Margot, instead I felt somewhat nonplussed by the story. Kirkus says: There's little new in this familiar coming-of-age tale, but it's extremely readable and has an appealing protagonist. I agree.
