I definitly found the two worlds descriptions of the half Echo/ half Sounds to be interesting and very fitting! It's amazing how one word (Mongrel vs Harmony) can paint such a different picture.

And side note: Nicholas aka Frankenstein was the one who said the line about all will be equal - not the prince. It was one of my highlights :P
Yes! I hadn't realized it, but now that you mention it, just the one word, Harmony, makes such a world of difference.. The magic of words and how they affect us!

Young adults may not get the allegory to racism in the book, but they will understand the message all the same. They will fall in love with different types of characters and want all those characters to be able to live happily ever after, which means together with equal rights. Treating everyone as fully human is one of several important messages present in this book.

Agree with all the comments about the book promoting anti-racist message for all. With both world of echoes and sounds working together. Book's also intriguing fascination, would recommending to friends and family.
