Cottingley by Alison Littlewood

5.0

This book is written entirely in letters, which is not a style that I enjoy. And while this didn't change my opinion on the writing device, I have to admit it was exceptionally well done. Especially considering it's not only letters, but only one side of a correspondence. Still, Littlewood managed to create a followable plot that didn't feel forced. The language is appropriate for the time period and the formality right for letters between two people who have never met. Really, I'm shocked to have liked it as much as I did.
