In "Matched" by Ally Condie, a simile is a figure of speech that compares two different things using "like" or "as" to create a vivid image or convey an emotion. For example, the author might describe a character's feelings or experiences by comparing them to something relatable, enhancing the reader's understanding of their internal struggles. This literary device adds depth to the narrative, making the characters' emotions more tangible.
