  2. Great opening. The juxtaposition of the mundane and the supernatural is perfect; it sets the tone straight off.

  3. Loved it! My first thought was "That can't be 25 words. Why didn't she give us another sentence?"

  8. Def hooked - love the juxtaposition of something that could be somewhat ordinary (totaling a car) and fantastical (losing a soul, especially that of a serial killer). You've got me - perfect as is.
