Upon starting this audio-book I wasn’t sure what to expect, especially because of the name. I understood it was a fictional story but I wasn’t sure exactly what genre it would fall under. I listened to the first 3 chapters before I decided I was enjoying the story; I really liked the main character “Deanna” a.k.a. “Jessica.” I didn’t know whether to feel sorry for her because she was so reclusive or be thankful there wasn’t an actual person like this. There were times where I caught myself sitting on the edge of my seat waiting to hear what “Deanna” was getting ready to do.

I liked the way Ms. Torre wrote The Girl in 6E; I love the way she made the main character interesting right from the start and the detail and information she put in about the clients “Deanna” interacted with via computer. Ms. Torre did a wonderful job of finding a way to draw the reader in right away and making them curious and a little fearful as well about “Deanna” and then making the reader like and consider “Deanna” a hero in the end. The one thing I didn’t like was some of the erotic things that were mentioned in the story. I think Ms. Torre could have left some of the details out and it wouldn’t affect the story at all.

I liked the way this story was narrated; I feel like Jorjeana Marie read this really well and I loved the way her voice was able to make me feel like I was really there. I was able to forget where I was and really get into the story. Jorjeana Marie is a stand-up comic, an actress, and a voice over artist as well as a narrator for audio-books. Some of the books she has narrated are Firstborn by Lorie Ann Grover and Liv, Forever by Amy Talkington. Out of a score of 10, I give The Girl in 6E and A.R. Torre a “7” and Mrs. Marie an “8.”
