OA. I went to look for my watch, but I can never seem to find the time.

B: It's a different figurative language technique, but I'm not sure what it is. 100% sure it's not a pun though.
C: it's a metaphor. It's a comparison between two things, in this case the novel was so well explained it had he accuracy of hitting a nail directly on the head.
D: That's just a statement, maybe a poetic quote.
