The Hidden People by Alison Littlewood6/10/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() It is 1851 when a young Albie meets his cousin Lizzie for the first time at the Great Exhibition. ![]() This book had all the elements of a dark historical mystery or good horror tale, but lacked the pacing of one, and I think that’s where it might have missed its mark. And yet…I don’t know if I felt as fully engaged as I could be. Littlewood also writes wonderfully and has a flair for bringing a historical setting to life. There’s no doubt that the story is utterly atmospheric, full of the kind of beautiful, exquisite detail that slowly creeps up on you. Thus when I found out about The Hidden People, I saw this book as the perfect place to start. I’m always up for a good changeling story, and Alison Littlewood is an author I’ve been meaning to read for a long time.
