Ever since that snowy Russian winter's night when she was born, Molly has longed to know the secret behind each of her 35 names. When Molly unearths a pair of time-worn spectacles in her garden, she is drawn into a mysterious realm of vivid, magical discoveries. Who are these women she is named for and what have they gifted her? What are those fantastic colors swirling around the people she sees and the young man she meets on her wedding day? Will she have enough time to learn all she is meant to before the soldiers of the Red Army invade her small village, exploding her world into chaos and war? Fearing for her safety, Molly must flee her family home and travel across the Atlantic to the strange and frozen New England town of Peabody. The power of the spectacles becomes Molly's connection and her hope in her new home, as they weave her once again into a world of wonder and tiny miracles that will change her life and the lives of her community forever.

Great book. No matter if you are a teenager, a mom, or a person that wants to expand your mind while getting a good reading, you can always trust that this book is a good option.

As a daughter of Holocaust survivors I am named after my grandmother that was murdered in the Holocaust. So for me a book about names is so next door. I feel what they feel. I cherish my name. I cherish the stories of the characters in the book. It’s so well written. I felt that I knew them… I listened to it on the audiobook version and loved the narration; such a beautiful voice. Great way to establish the characters with different voices. I wanted to keep listening. I highly recommend it!

I normally enjoy reading books with personal stories but this book was an outstanding reading. The book flow and construction is so perfect that gets your attention inmediatly and you don’t want to put it down!
