3.0

This was my first Lovecraft. How shameful!

I wanted to like this more than I did, but I think Lovecraft and I just may not be quite the right fit. The book is so VERY visual, with long descriptions of intricate and strange things. I have trouble visualizing that way and so I found myself getting lost in these long passages without having a clear idea of what was happening.

On the other hand, the book itself is astoundingly creepy and I definitely have a lot of respect for him and his writing.
