Sixteen-year-old Mina Carter has spent her life wishing she could escape her own name. With its unfamiliar syllables and complicated history, Aminah-Catarina Carter turns every classroom introduction into an ordeal, leaving her humiliated, isolated, and desperate to belong.When Mina wanders into Blackwood Hollow, she discovers the Starlight Bazaar, a mysterious market where people trade pieces of themselves instead of money. At its heart stands the Glass Archive of Nomina, guarded by Elias Hawthorne, an enigmatic archivist who preserves names abandoned by their owners. He offers Mina a tempting bargain: surrender her birth name and become Amelia Hayes, a name designed to glide effortlessly through the world.Mina accepts, believing that a new identity will finally bring her the acceptance she craves. At first, the transformation seems miraculous. Teachers pronounce her name without hesitation, classmates treat her warmly, and the burden of embarrassment lifts from her shoulders. But the freedom she gains comes at a devastating cost. As memories and relationships begin to slip away, Mina discovers that a name is more than a label-it is an anchor connecting her to her family, her history, and the people who know her best.With her younger brother Jonah beside her, Mina must confront the bargain she made and face the painful truth she once tried to escape. To reclaim her original name, she must stand before the Bazaar and speak her identity with courage, even when the world offers mockery instead of understanding.A Name Made of Memories is a magical fantasy about identity, belonging, family, and the hidden power of names. Blending an eerie enchanted marketplace with an emotional coming-of-age journey, it asks a timeless question: if becoming someone else means losing the memories that made you who you are, is acceptance worth the price?
