In the three novels I am focusing on are, Odd Girl Out by Rachel Simmons, The Girl She Left Behind by Karen Brichoux, and The Help by Kathryn Stockett show different elevations and common ways of saying certain things. In the excerpt from Odd Girl Out, Rachel Simmons uses a scholarly use of grating high school students, girls especially. "Girls are secretive, they destroy you from the inside," qualifies as being straightfoward and harsh, although a little of the truth. In the excerpt from The Help, Kathryn's literal meaning of certain things are common and colloquial in ways that makes her writing unique. Her words are not harsh, but they are not musical by any means. In the last excerpt I read in The Girl She Left Behind, focuses mainly on the common diction that many writers use. There are many blunt words over the page and has good use of figurative language.
I probably did that wrong, but I tried..
