<h3>
Answer: No it is not a run-on sentence</h3>
At a first glance, the long length of the sentence seems to suggest it is a run-on. This is misleading because we basically have one thought being expressed. That thought is "you should try the soup".
The first part "If you have a hankering for a delicious bowl of soup" is the dependent clause which relies on the rest of the sentence (independent clause). The independent clause looks like a run-on all by itself, but it's just in the form of "you should try the soup made of x, y and z" where you replace the letters x,y,z with the ingredients listed. I'm paraphrasing this part of course. Another way you could paraphrase the whole thing is "if you are craving soup, then you should try french onion soup made of various ingredients". I'm sure you can probably get more creative.
The simile used is "Momma's voice got strange, hissing like a snake."
This detailed simile, used when Wilona is enraged at Byron for playing with matches, underlines Wilona's rage.
The snake, in particular, is an animal associated with malice and wickedness, therefore comparing Wilona to a snake emphasizes how fed up she is with Byron and his pranks.
Only long after this do Daniel and Wilona resolve to take action against Byron once and for all.
<h3>What is a simile?</h3>
A simile is a device of speech that compares two things explicitly. Similes vary from other metaphors in that they highlight the similarities between two items by employing comparison terms like;
- "like,"
- "as,"
- "so," or
- "than,"
On the other hand, metaphors generate an implicit comparison.
