Uniquely twisted, The Girl in 6E captivates from the beginning. A different premise from anything I’ve read lately, it’s entirely original from the characters to the plot and overall pacing. The main character may be a cold killer, but inside is a woman with a soul and heart who sacrifices everything to keep from unleashing herself on the world.
Delving into the world of sex web-caming, there is a lot of detail about some unusual sexual practices and fetishes that sensitive readers may want to avoid.
A.R. Torre has written a beautifully warped thriller that will be staying with me for a long time to come.
Summary:
Jessica hasn’t touched another human being in 3 years. She’s a shut-in but doesn’t suffer from just any psychosis. Thank goodness for the internet. It’s how she makes a living, and how she survives. And thanks to the Internet, Jessica is quite possibly the most popular recluse of note. Hundreds of men are happy to pay $6.99 a minute to watch her perform their requests providing them with satisfaction and her with a distraction from her lust for blood. But after spending years hiding away to protect the world from her murderous intent, she finds herself having to leave the safety of her apartment in order to save the life of a little girl. Will she be able to succeed without giving in to her thirst for bloodshed?

To be honest, this isn’t the type of book I would normally read. But that’s what’s good about going into a book without expectations. I didn’t know anything about it other than the synopsis, which didn’t give much away. I just opened the book (well, electronically, since I read it on my Kindle) and started to read.

I was entertained and thrilled, and though I had a feeling it wouldn’t be a light read, I was still surprised by the dark depths the story reached. But I couldn’t look away; it was too absorbing. It’s been described as an ‘erotic thriller’, and I think that fits the bill quite well. Again, not my typical fare, but I enjoyed it enough to consider picking up the sequel at some point. It’s certainly worth the read if you can keep an open mind.
