summer reading part 3

"Below me, the water creeps between the boulders as the tide comes in. My palm is bleeding. I hear a sound, like a kitten mewling, or a baby screaming and I freeze." I think this quote could hook someone to read this book because it is a well written quote, it involves a lot of detail. This quote is a simile because its comparing the tide to the water creeping in on the boulders. The second part of the quote involves a sudden freeze when hearing and a kitten mewling.
