First, she found this as Lad圜onstellation, spending years cultivating both a fictional world and an online community. They communicate mostly online, and a budding relationship, whether it be friendship or romantic, that transpires mostly through written word, is my favorite.Ī huge theme in ELIZA AND HER MONSTERS is Eliza finding space where she could be her authentic self, because she felt she could not do so at home or at school.
However, their friendship is somewhat one-sided because Eliza knows that he is the most famous Monstrous Sea fanfiction writer, but he does not know that Eliza is actually Lad圜onstellation. She develops a close relationship to Wallace, who experiences selective mutism, and he seems to understand what it’s like feeling truly at home online and less so face to face. She feels out of place at her school and experiences anxiety, including social anxiety. Joce’s review:Įliza Mirk is a high school student who lives in Indiana and anonymously writes and illustrates the famous webcomic Monstrous Sea, read by millions, as her online persona Lad圜onstellation. Wallace thinks Eliza is just another fan, and as he draws her out of her shell, she begins to wonder if a life offline might be worthwhile.īut 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. Then Wallace Warland, Monstrous Sea ’s biggest fanfiction writer, transfers to her school. Eliza can’t imagine enjoying the real world as much as she loves the online one, and she has no desire to try. Online, she’s Lad圜onstellation, the anonymous creator of the wildly popular webcomic Monstrous Sea.
In the real world, Eliza Mirk is shy, weird, and friendless.
