persefonitas 's review for:
The Girl in 6E
by A.R. Torre
I was debating whether to give this book 2 or 3 stars. I first went on with 3, but then settled with 2.
The beginning of the novel was pretty interesting, especially reading about Deanna's life as a camgirl, how she dealt with every individual client and was concerned about this particular one's behavior.
The murderous urge didn't work for me. Personally, I would have found it a whole lot more interesting if this was solemnly about a camgirl suspecting one of her clients to be a pedophile. The debate Deanna had whether she was protecting the alleged child by going along with this man's fantasies and keeping it at bay was really interesting.
And then going off to find and save this child? Yes, girl! But it would have been SO much better without the killing desire. I understand this is a series and that it focuses on Deanna's urges (I think? Didn't look up the other books), but I feel like it would have worked so much as a stand alone.
This is pretty much why I didn't give this book 3 stars. I felt like it had the potential to be a lot more than it ended up being. I also had trouble with the writing, so there's that.
