The Girl with 35 Names by DJ Colbert is a highly entertaining must-read novel that won’t disappoint. Right from the start, the reader is glued to the book.

An original tale that reminds us of the importance of tradition, the wonderful gifts our mothers and grandmothers have bestowed on us, the resilience and strength that accompanies the immigrant experience, and the necessity of bringing warmth and colour into our lives.

The Girl with 35 Names is an adventure that takes place in another time, yet provides lessons for the present. Where love and hate meet face to face. We are taken on a mystic journey that takes us from sweet cakes to brutality beyond words.

The Girl with 35 Names was a hard-to-put-down, intriguing novel to read. The characters were well developed and the story easy to follow. It also was lovely to see how family was so important to the characters. Very touching novel!
