emma3257 's review for:
Eliza and Her Monsters
by Francesca Zappia
*4 STARS*
Synopsis;
Eliza Mirk is an average teenage girl. Aside from the fact that she owns a giant webcomic. And when I say giant, I mean giant. 'Monstrous Sea' has millions of readers. Eliza just wants to be normal, so she keeps it a secret. But when the webcomics most popular fanfiction writer transfers to Eliza's high school and they befriend each other, should Eliza reveal who she is? And how will it effect their relationship and the fandom itself?
My Opinion;
This was hella cute. This was just overall a fun read. I found myself always wanting to pick this book up and dive into the story. I do, of course have an issue with it.
My biggest issue was the main character, Eliza. I just found her to be so incredibly negative and selfish. Her parents just wanted her to be happy, and all she would do is be rude to them and act like she didn't want to be around them. She didn't give a shit about her brothers. The way she talked about the people she goes to school with made her sound like she thought she was above them for being into anime and webcomics instead of football and shopping. "A homecoming banner decorates the mouth of the hallway, reminding students to buy tickets for the football game this Friday night. Someone put that banner up there. God, someone MADE that banner. Someone painted it and everything." Just shut up and let people got to the damn game.
