- belligerent (287): warlike; giving to waging war
- lithe (308): limber; supple; flexible
Figurative Language:
- "..splits his head in a single clean movement - ponk-..."(309) Ponk is an onomatopoeia because it is describing the sound of the wood plank hitting August's head.
- "Marlena's scarf was sent dancing into the wind." (312) This is an example of personification because the scarf is being given the human characteristic of dancing.
- "I found yellow eyes, like small suns, staring back at me." (318) Jacob is using a simile while comparing the lion's eyes to small suns.
Quote:
"August's body was found and removed last night, and they're performing an investigation." (313) August died!! I expected him to be seriously hurt after the stampede, but I never thought he would die! I'm excited to find out what happens with Jacob and Marlena now that August is out of the picture. Also, I wonder if since Marlena is now a widow, if she will keep her and Jacob's baby.
Theme:
The theme is still that you can have a home away from home.
