so-soThe story was fine, interesting. I can appreciate Lovecraft's influence on other writers.
As much as I wanted to be a Lovecraft superfan, I am not - having tasted two of his works (albeit not the ones he is most well known for) I have no desire to read more.
Thanks to @BookWomble and @The_Book_Ninja for getting me motivated to attempt his works -
First book for July #BookSpinBingo -
Make a great day everyone 🙂
Bookwomble He's definitely an acquired taste, even in his own day. A taste I acquired quite young which allows me to read around his flaws, and I'm not sure how taken I'd be if I was just finding him now. Well done for giving him a try, but totally cool to move on if he and his Dark Circle 🌑 are not for you - life's too short 😊 1y

The_Book_Ninja Well done for trying. Agree with @Bookwomble he‘s marmite. He‘s quite wordy, especially when setting the scene for a story. But there‘s something about his old-fashioned language that creates an authentic & surreal sense of dread. I always wondered why an old bigoted author was still so influential but I see it now. Going forward I‘ll read the books of his I bought but I‘m relishing reading contemporary authors‘ reimagining of his Cthulhu mythos. 1y
