Lovecraft can be very... dense. At the Mountains of Madness is kind of jumping in the deep end of the pool too.

Try something like "The Statement of Randolph Carter" or "Cats of Ulthar" to get your feet wet.

I did find the mountains of madness very boring. I also loved the tomb and thought Herbert West - Reanimator was also very good.

Some of his stuff is way better than others, so if you're not vibing with one story, don't feel bad about trying another!

Some other good reads are The Nameless City and The Picture in the House.

I kinda feel the same. I've read mountains of madness before, and can remember some of the imagery of the horror he describes, but for the life of me I can't remember the plot or characters. Lovecraft has interesting lore and vivid imagery of his eldritch horrors, but I haven't been able to connect with any of the actual stories.

I just put on an audiobook, almost sure it was this one. And it may have been hard to understand at first but I didn't care, I was just talking a long walk and decided to leave it on, and by the end I was understanding everything and it was a pretty cool experience.

I have not tried to actually read his books. I actually just got started with reading Alan Moore's "Providence", graphic novel series. What I have is a collection of all of his graphic novels in that universe I think, it's a huge, very heavy book. My copy is in Spanish (link), not sure if this exact collection exists in English but as an English author all his graphic novels are obviously available.

Anyway, I wish I had more time to try and read his works. I just found a download link for 13 of his books for free on Project Gutenberg.
