What similes are used to express Melinda's feelings in Speak?

I watch myself in the mirror across the room. Ugh. My hair is completely hidden under the comforter. I look for the shapes in my face. Could I put a face in my tree, like a dryad from Greek mythology? Two muddy-circle eyes under black eyebrows, piggy-nose nostrils, and a chewed-up horror of a mouth. Definitely not a dryad face.

I don’t want to be cool. I want to grab her by the neck and shake her and scream at her to stop treating me like dirt.

I have been dropped like a hot Pop Tart on a cold kitchen floor.
