Opal has always been Opal. You would think she'd make up a new name for the new life she has, but she figures the one given to her by her oblivious parents is perfect for the new career of an exotic dancer. It's not so hard to be a different person - she is good at pretending. Good at doing as she's told, and earning money from it, too. What is hard is forgetting about things. Like the fact that her heart is beating in her chest so erratically it could end her life any second. Or the fact that she's trying to escape from the big bad wolf. Maybe even the feelings she develops for someone, even though she is supposed to be hollow inside and out. Opal doesn't like to forgive, but she does like to forget. Maybe it makes all the bad things disappear. Maybe it makes the world a little bit better. But maybe it will all come crashing down in the end.

Even the Stars Forgot Her Name She wasn't trying to disappear. It just started happening-one forgotten moment at a time. At seventeen, Haley feels like the world has quietly moved on without her. She goes to school, she comes home, she scrolls through life like it's happening to someone else. Her parents are always too busy, her old friends have new lives, and no one seems to notice how quiet she's become-or how much it hurts. She used to dream big. Now she just dreams of being seen. Then one night, in a haze of insomnia and scrolling, Haley finds an anonymous online forum where people share the things they're too scared to say out loud. And something about their pain-the raw honesty, the way it mirrors her own-pulls her in. As the nights stretch on and the stars stay silent, Haley starts to connect with others who feel like ghosts in their own lives. In their stories, she finds flickers of light. Maybe she isn't invisible. Maybe she isn't broken beyond repair. Maybe being lost doesn't mean you'll never be found. This is a quiet, aching story about loneliness, unseen pain, and the fight to remember who you are-especially when the world forgets.
