In this research, the writer found five types of figure of speech in the novel The Pagan Stone written by Nora Roberts. They are simile, personification, metonymy, repetition, and overstatement. The most dominant type of figure of speech used in the novel is simile, it appears nineteen times, and the less type of figure of speech used in the novel is metonymy, the researcher only found out one from all the data. The implication of this research is to give understanding on the term of figure of speech as one of categories of stylistics to readers whom would like to know more about it.
