bonus round: the goose girl chronicles

the girl in the painting by tea cooper

I read this book for class, it is a historical christian fiction set in Australia. and I did not expect it to work as goose girl. spoilers under the cut

the big twist in this book was easy for me to see and also very clearly goose girl

this book has two main story lines, one told in chronological order, the other told in scene prior to the other storyline in a seemingly random order

the "current" time line follows two middle aged siblings who adopt a young girl and the flashbacks are them growing up as children and young adults

and it is revealed that they are not actually siblings

and that micheal, the older one, was about to leave england with his sister when she dies in a fire. and her young friend follows him to the docks and boards with him. he lies, calls her his sister, she seemingly has no family, and then she proceeds to forget she is not lizzie and micheal lies to her for 40+ years until he reveals the truth

WILD

the switch of identities, while not malicious in nature, or intentional even, still has the goose girl vibes, as an identity has been stolen!

and the lies and deceit in keeping this secret lasts far longer than most of the books i read for this challenge

i dont have much more to say but i wanted to add this one in to my series
