**"A love letter to fandom, friendship, and the stories that shape us,
Eliza and Her Monsters is absolutely magical."--Marieke Nijkamp, New
York Times-bestselling author of This Is Where It Ends
Eighteen-year-old Eliza Mirk is the anonymous creator of the wildly
popular webcomic Monstrous Sea, but when a new boy at school tempts
her to live a life offline, everything she's worked for begins to
crumble.
Rainbow Rowell's Fangirl meets Noelle Stevenson's Nimona in this
acclaimed novel about art, fandom, and finding the courage to be
yourself. "A must-have."--School Library Journal
In the real world, Eliza Mirk is shy, weird, and friendless. Online,
Eliza is LadyConstellation, anonymous creator of a popular webcomic
called Monstrous Sea. With millions of followers and fans throughout
the world, Eliza's persona is popular. Eliza can't imagine enjoying the
real world as much as she loves her digital community.
Then Wallace Warland transfers to her school and Eliza begins to wonder
if a life offline might be worthwhile. But when Eliza's secret is
accidentally shared with the world, everything she's built--her story,
her relationship with Wallace, and even her sanity--begins to fall
apart.
With pages from Eliza's webcomic, as well as screenshots from Eliza's
online forums, this uniquely formatted book will appeal to fans of
Noelle Stevenson's Nimona and Rainbow Rowell's Fangirl. The
paperback edition includes bonus material and never-before-seen art from
the author.
