I'm looking to read some of Lovecrafts books, as I loved Bloodborne, which was heavily influenced by Lovecrafts work.

What Lovecraft books would you recommend for me to start with if I really enjoyed Bloodborne?

Shadow Over Innsmouth.

Just get any one of his collections at the bookstore. He's not that difficult to get into.

https://www.amazon.com/Tales-Lovecraft-Joyce-Carol-Oates/dp/0061374601

This is an affordable selection of H.P Lovecraft's better stories with a decent introduction.

Get this, or check it out from the library, and if you like it you can but the Collected Works pretty cheaply.

You can find the stories online as well because they have entered the public domain.

I think that Lovecraft is better with a traditional book made from paper, though. It fits better with the mood and subject matter of his writing.

I rather prefer his stories in audiobook format. They are pretty comfy to fall asleep to.
>>
If you've got an ereader you can find an epub or mobi of his entire works online.

I think The Nameless City is a good one to start with.
>>
I would say that the Rats in the Wall is a pretty good fit if you love Bloodborne.

The story "the Dunwich horror" also fits with the Kos(m) theme of bloodborne.

Lovecraft stories are my favorite to listen to as audiobooks as well, they're almost like radio plays
>>

You can actually find some of them as old radio plays. I recall that the Outsider was a nice adaptation.

I've fallen asleep a few times while listening to Shadow Over Innsmouth on audiobook.
My power was out for a while and I used my phone to listen, maximum comfy
>>
I guess the Dreams in the Witchhouse is also a story I could recommend even if it's one of his worst stories. It does have some good ideas in it.
