H. P. Lovecraft Tales of Horror by H.P. Lovecraft
3.0
I cannot even begin to describe the feelings I have after finishing this book, nor do I have any recollection of how I got here.
I definitely feel like Lovecraft succeeded at making his own lore, and becoming a staple in horror for his gods, creatures, and landscapes.
However, I cannot stand his lack of descriptions through the use of "I cannot bear to describe", and so on, it felt like such a cop out for a lack of imagination or ability to write the scenes.
There was also a fair amount of repetition between the stories, with a few that stood out. I definitely enjoyed his shorter works compared to his longer ones.
