Similies

I notice in this story that there are a lot of similies. In this post please find your favourite or the strongest similie and explain why it is the strongest or your favourite.

My favourite similie explains a character right at the beginning and gives a strong mental image. The quote is "If she believes something she doesn't keep it in her head like private property with a no tresspassing sign up; she puts it out there in the world." This similie gives information about Addie very quickly. You wouldn't say this about just anybody and this gives a very strong mental image.

Hey misfits group

What do you all think about bobby's sudden idea about the no-name party? I think it really shows that bobby is a person full of ideas and that he is underestimating himself. In the story it says "I have always thought that i was just like him......all of a sudden i am thinking i am more like my mom. Not just a dreamer   but somebody who can make things happen." This quote proves that Bobby is underestimating himself. I think that Bobby's sudden change in character reminds me of Bryce's change in Flipped. They both realized that they were better than what they were before and they both realized this so suddenly. If you have any ideas about this or connections please comment below.
