Book Club with Kay discussion

Many characters chose to construct a secret identity in The Nightingale. How did pretending to be someone else determine each character’s fate, for better or worse? And what about those who had no choice, like Ari and Julien?

It obviously benefitted Ari and Julien to have changed their identities. Isabelle, as well, I suppose. But I think if it were me, the level of nerve that it would require to wonder if my papers were going to stand up to scrutiny each time they were requested would be more than I could spare. If it were me, I don't think I would be able to change my identity unless it was equally as risky of a situation not to as it was to falsify.
