This semester was unlike any other courses that I've taken throughout high school. The fall of 2020 was the hardest season I have experienced in my lifetime. In the last couple weeks alone, more people have died from the Covid-19 pandemic than in the 9/11 attack and Pearl Harbor attack combined together. It seemed like the country has lost it's mind.

The author uses alliteration, foreshadowing, hyperboles, irony, personification, similes, and metaphors in the novel. When it comes down to the novel, S.E. Hinton uses a large variety of figurative language.
